To thrive, you have to be self-motivated and show up every day ready to meet, and teach, someone new all about why they should recommend Rust-Oleum for painting challenges.

Solving challenges is the very foundation of who we are. After all, our founder, sea captain Robert Fergusson, didn't particularly set out to invent rust preventive paint. He just wanted to keep his ship intact and stumbled upon a valuable solution. Today, that discovery is Rust-Oleum Corporation.

Founded in 1921, the same passion that drove the Captain to create the world's first rust-preventative paint still drives us today. When we see a problem, we work diligently until we've perfected a solution, which has led to some of the most cutting edge, durable and innovative products in the industry. Our creative and talented team of over 2,000 people across every corner of the world help us remain the global leader in protective paints and coatings for both home and industry.

As our Regional Sales Representative, you can expect:
  • To write your own to-do list that includes visiting Menards stores in your region to make a great impression along with training Menards associates on new and current products.
  • To do some merchandising and setting the shelves according to the planograms provided.
  • To meet new people every day and build relationships with store associates.
  • A team you can rely on to answer hard customer questions.
  • That we'll take care of you today, and tomorrow. We offer a company car, 401k, and pension.
Rust-Oleum is an equal opportunity employer. Employment selection and related decisions are made without regard to sex, race, age, disability, religion, national origin, color, or any other protected class.
