Arborist Account Manager

Job Description

Joshua Tree Experts is expanding our footprint in Birmingham, AL , and we are seeking a passionate, preservation-minded Arborist Account Manager to lead this territory. At Joshua Tree Experts, our philosophy is simple: Tree preservation is our primary goal . We believe in blending old-school values with new-age technology to deliver unparalleled tree and plant health care.

We are looking for an environmental steward and tree care professional who loves educating homeowners- and knows how to close a high-value contract. If you are deeply committed to the science of arboriculture, preserving the urban canopy, and actively driving territory revenue through consultative sales, this is the career for you.

The Role: As our Arborist Account Manager, you will be the face of the Joshua Tree Experience in Birmingham. You will spend your days diagnosing tree health, designing comprehensive preservation plans, and converting your expert recommendations into sold contracts, ensuring your clients' properties thrive for generations.

What You'll Be Responsible For:

• Consultative Sales & Preservation: Meet with property owners to perform detailed site inspections, diagnose insect/disease issues, and educate them-ultimately converting that expertise into closed, recurring Plant Health Care (PHC) and tree care contracts.
• Territory Growth: Actively hunt for new business and grow your book by networking within the community, generating referrals, and building long-term, trust-based relationships with homeowners who value premium service.
• Expert Estimating: Calculate accurate job costs, map out detailed treatment plans, and deliver professional, timely proposals that win the business and focus on the long-term health of the property.
• Operational Handoffs: Partner seamlessly with our production crews and Plant Health Care specialists. You will clearly communicate the scientific scope of work so that what you sold is exactly what gets executed safely.
• Brand Ambassadorship: Act as a role model for our core values every single day: Work Hard / Play Hard, Improve & Adapt, Reliable, Team Player, and Find a Way.

What You'll Need to Succeed (Requirements):

• Arboriculture Expertise: Deep working knowledge of tree identification, local arboriculture, insect and disease management, and soil health.
• Proven Sales Ability: 2+ years of experience in account management, estimating, or consultative sales within the green industry. You must know how to build a pipeline, handle objections, and close deals without compromising our tree-first philosophy.
• The "Consultative Closer" Mindset: A true passion for the outdoors and the ability to translate complex tree science into clear, persuasive advice that convinces clients to invest in their property.
• Tech-Savvy & Organized: Ability to manage your sales pipeline, prioritize follow-ups, and utilize our CRM and estimating software with precision.
• Credentials: A valid driver's license and a clean driving record.

Bonus Points (Highly Preferred):

• ISA Certified Arborist credential (If you are close to testing, we will support you in achieving this!).
• Tree Risk Assessment Qualification (TRAQ) or Certified Treecare Safety Professional (CTSP) certifications.
• State Pesticide Applicator's License.

The Bottom Line: Joshua Tree Experts is rapidly expanding across the country because we never compromise on safety, service, or our preservation-first approach. We bring on professionals who expect more from their careers, want to be supported by a tight-knit team, and are driven to build a legacy while being highly compensated for their sales execution and tree expertise.
