Your Career In The Stratusphere

There’s never been a better time to join Stratus!

As the market leader in brand implementation and maintenance, we help the world’s most recognized brands show up consistently—everywhere they operate. From exterior signage and interior branding to site refreshes, digital signage, and ongoing repair and maintenance, we bring brands to life where it matters most. Our work extends far beyond installation—we become a long-term partner in helping brands succeed.

At Stratus, every employee plays a direct role in that impact. We operate with a strong commitment to customer service, a focus on execution, and a bias for action. If you're looking for a place where your contributions are visible, your growth is supported, and your work makes a real difference, you’ll find it here.

The Opportunity

The National Sales Executive is responsible for driving new business and revenue growth by winning new national and multi-site customers across Stratus' core brand implementation offerings, including exterior signage, interior branding, site refreshes, digital signage, energy and lighting, and other complementary solutions.

Success is driven by proactively creating opportunities, opening doors, building a pipeline from the ground up, and converting targeted prospects into new Stratus customers.

• Converts prospective customers into long-term partnerships by demonstrating Stratus' ability to execute consistently across regional and national footprints.
