From Ernesta's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Ernesta is on a mission to bring gorgeous, design-focused custom rugs to homes and places of gathering through an enjoyable, frictionless, and affordable experience. At the same price as a store-bought standard-sized rug, a custom-cut rug from Ernesta will not only be a better fit, but also a better buying experience. We believe that high-quality custom design shouldn't be out of reach for consumers and aim to address this need in the multi-billion-dollar global rug industry.
Driven by our collective mission, our team is hungry, hardworking, and highly ambitious. We’re problem solvers, innovators, design enthusiasts, and executors. We are relentlessly focused on creating and delivering beautiful and delightfully simple solutions and experiences for our customers. Together, we are excited and humbled by the opportunity to expand the market for custom rugs and allow more people to live in elevated design settings. Put simply, we believe more soft surfaces mean happier homes.
Ernesta is looking for an experienced
Retail Trade Account Executive to join our Retail team. This role will report to the Showroom Leader and be responsible for building and growing Ernesta’s trade business within the local design community.
At Ernesta, we believe long-term partnerships are more valuable than one-time sales. As a Retail Trade Account Executive, you will own and nurture relationships with interior designers, architects, and other trade partners—becoming a trusted resource for their projects and helping them incorporate Ernesta into their work.
This is an entrepreneurial sales role for someone who is energized by building a book of business, passionate about design, highly organized, and motivated by results. You will work closely with the Showroom Leader and Design Assistants to ensure our trade partners receive a best-in-class Ernesta experience from initial introduction through project completion and beyond.
You develop trusted relationships with trade partners who increasingly turn to Ernesta as a resource for their projects.
You consistently grow revenue from your portfolio through repeat business and deeper account relationships.
You proactively build the business by creating new relationships rather than relying solely on inbound showroom traffic.
New trade accounts become active customers with meaningful project pipelines and repeat purchasing behavior.
You maintain a healthy and well-managed pipeline with clear visibility into opportunities, next steps, and expected timing.
You are known within the local design community as a knowledgeable, responsive, and reliable partner.
You work collaboratively with the showroom team while taking personal ownership of your accounts and results.
You consistently demonstrate Ernesta’s values of customer centricity, integrity, passion for design, collaboration, growth mindset, and reliability.
This role pays an hourly rate of $30/hour plus a quarterly bonus. The anticipated maximum annual compensation range for this role (including the quarterly bonus) is approximately $90,000.
