On February 22nd, David Spencer, president, announced that InterClean Inc. has acquired EnviroTech, one of our major domestic competitors in the corporate market. This is a terrific opportunity for InterClean to expand its operations and specifically for our southwestern sales team to expand its skills and career opportunities in the health care full-service cleaning solutions industry.

1) New sales generation – Research and create targeted new client lists for the given territory
2) Customer service – The candidate must be able to customize packages and systems for new and current clients. Must be able to make decisions quickly and proficiently to meet the needs of these...
