About The Position

One of Georgia’s oldest and most successful private companies is recruiting its next generation of high-performance leaders! Yancey Brothers Caterpillar is seeking candidates to join the Sales and Leadership Training Program. We are looking for candidates who are motivated to build their sales and operational capabilities in preparation for future roles. This is a great opportunity to get an entry level role into sales and a pathway to leadership. The Sales and Leadership Training (SaLT) Program at Yancey Brothers Co. is a dynamic, full-time opportunity designed to prepare you for a successful future in our organization. Offered twice a year with flexible start dates, this 12-week, rotation-based training program is ideal for motivated individuals who are eager to learn, grow, and lead. As a Sales and Leadership Trainee, you’ll gain hands-on experience across our business divisions through a structured blend of in-person and computer-based training focused on sales and leadership fundamentals. Throughout the program, you’ll participate in job shadowing, on-the-job learning, and rotational assignments that expose you to multiple departments and functions within the company. You’ll also attend interactive classroom sessions and engage in leadership development activities that strengthen your skills and broaden your understanding of our organization. From day one, you’ll be assigned a “home base assignment” where you’ll begin to build specific job skills while immersing yourself in Yancey’s culture and core values. You’ll have the opportunity to connect with team members at all levels of the company, gaining insight into their roles and responsibilities as you explore different areas of the business. Upon successful completion of the program, you will transition full-time into your home base assignment, officially becoming a SaLT Alumni. This entry-level position is designed to be the launchpad for a long and rewarding career at Yancey Brothers.
