HHC | A Division of Hacienda Home Centers
Albuquerque, NM

Why You’ll Love Working Here

Hacienda Home Centers is a family-owned New Mexico business founded in 1975, with deep roots in the communities we serve. Hacienda is a supportive, close-knit workplace where people are treated like family—not numbers. Our people tend to stay—thanks to a positive team environment, hands-on leadership, and real opportunities to grow.

As part of HHC Supply, you’ll support a division known locally for its knowledgeable staff, strong customer relationships, and reputation as a trusted alternative to big-box retailers, especially in government and contractor sales.

The Role (In a Nutshell)

You’ll manage inside sales for federal, state, and local government customers, handling opportunities from first contact through compliant quoting and contract award—backed by an experienced operations team and established government programs.

What Makes This Role Stand Out

· Family-owned, people-first culture with long-tenured employees

· Established government sales program—not a startup role

· Stable customer base and repeat government business

· Competitive base + commission with uncapped upside

· Local decision-making—your work actually matters here

Compensation

· Base: $45,000

· Commission: $15,000 – $30,000 target

· OTE: $60,000 – $75,000+

Who Thrives Here

You enjoy relationship-driven sales, value stability, and want to work for a company that’s locally owned, community-focused, and built to last—not a revolving-door sales org.
