About this role

UL Solutions is hiring a Sales Process Specialist to serve as the operational backbone of their sales team in Northbrook. You'd handle customer inquiries via phone and email, manage the quote-to-order pipeline using their ERP system, and coordinate the pre- and post-sale activities that keep clients on track with certification requirements and adoption timelines. While the role is largely independent, you'd also support account managers and sales engineers with administrative tasks, mentor less experienced colleagues, and act as an internal connector—routing customers to the right UL personnel and building relationships across departments to solve problems proactively.

The position suits someone with two or more years of customer service or inside sales experience who is organized, self-directed, and comfortable with CRM and Microsoft Office tools. You'll need solid communication and relationship-building skills, a grasp of sales processes, and the ability to handle complex, atypical assignments with minimal supervision. The hybrid setup in Northbrook offers flexibility, and the compensation package includes a base salary of $50,000–$60,000 plus a 20% performance-based incentive, health and wellness benefits, and 15 days of vacation annually.
