Our Story 
Carter Lumber was founded in 1932 by W.E. Carter. For 90 years, we have strengthened our company by staying true to our values, which include honesty, hard work, and putting people first. What started as a single lumberyard in Akron, Ohio, is represented today by seven brands servicing professional builders and homeowners across thirteen states with more than 160 locations. Despite our growth, we are still a family-owned company. Our core values and our people-first culture remain the same. 

Description
The OSR is responsible for finding and creating sales across our full line of building materials and installed services. Customers include local contractors, builders, and remodelers. The OSR will “sell materials” but the responsibilities stretch beyond the transaction. Providing top-notch service and creating deep-seated relationships are key to the OSR’s success. You’ll identify targets, develop quotes, visit job sites, maintain schedules, and address any customer questions or concerns. A strong applicant will have a hunter mentality, exceptional communication skills, building materials experience, and established relationships within the home building industry.
