The Opportunity:

 

We have opportunities for recent college grads to join our Management Trainee/ Sales Trainee
Program. After four years of sitting behind a desk, you'll enjoy working in our hands-on,
team-based environment and getting out in front of our customers! 


 

The training program begins with placement at a store where formal training in product, policy,
customer service, and operating systems takes place using learning modules and projects, along
with hands-on training.  Training continues in the classroom at our Division Headquarters in
Malvern, PA, where you prepare for field assignments as an Assistant Manager or Entry Level
Sales Rep. In these positions, you�ll develop your skills in supervision, financial management,
market planning, and wholesale selling.  It is important to note that our sales branches are
company-owned, and 80% of our business is generated from commercial and industrial accounts.  

 

The Management Trainee/ Sales Trainee is the future management talent of Sherwin Williams.  All
of our new college recruits begin in this position and are promoted from within at a rate of
95%.  Our internal job posting system allows our employees to take an active role in defining
their own career path.
