About Us

At Flamingo Holland, we go beyond selling flower bulbs: we pursue continuous growth, embrace challenges, and empower American flower growers to succeed. As a leading wholesale provider of premium flower bulbs, including lilies, calla lilies, freesia, and more, we pride ourselves on meaningful customer relationships and exceptional communication. We believe our investment in our growers is what truly sets us apart.

The Opportunity

We are seeking an energetic, relationship-driven Sales Representative to manage existing customer accounts and cultivate new business opportunities. You will dive into product knowledge and nurture long-term partnerships, working both independently and collaboratively with your team to drive customer success and achieve sales objectives.

• Connect in the Field: Visit customers on-site to deepen relationships, propose growth opportunities, and experience a variety of growing conditions, firsthand.
• Drive Growth: Proactively generate, qualify, and follow up on new business leads.
• Represent the Brand: Attend industry trade shows and networking events to confidently represent the company and expand your professional relationships.
• Stay Ahead: Monitor market trends, competitor activity, and customer feedback to help shape personal and team sales strategies.

Who You Are

• The Communicator: You love speaking with customers and building rapport, and you possess a knack for clear, persuasive writing.
• The Learner: You have a genuine interest in horticulture, agriculture, or the "Green Industry."
• The Organized Thinker: You successfully manage your priorities under pressure and can oversee multiple accounts and project deadlines during peak seasons.
• The Problem Solver: You are resourceful and ready to help customers with growing challenges and find the perfect varieties for their specific growing conditions.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite.
• Valid driver’s license and the ability to travel regularly for customer visits.

What We Offer

• Industry Immersion: Hands-on participation in a unique and vibrant industry.
• Professional Mentorship: Direct guidance and learning opportunities from a seasoned mentor and collaborative team.
