About the Team

Garratt-Callahan is a family-owned, private water treatment chemical company with a 120-year history of stability. We have never undergone an ownership change, never laid off an employee, and have maintained 80 consecutive years of profitability. Our operations span every state in the USA, supported by five chemical plants and a dedicated team of technical salespeople. We are proud to be a family-friendly organization that values long-term commitment, offering a fiercely private culture where the commission plan has remained unchanged for 30 years.

About the Role

This position serves as the foundation for a career in technical sales within the South Bay of San Francisco. As a Chemical Service Technician, you will support the existing customer base by performing water treatment tests and solving complex water problems at industrial sites, medical centers, and commercial buildings. Your work will directly contribute to keeping industrial boilers and cooling towers energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.

You will operate with the freedom of a remote-first approach, training alongside veteran Territory Managers in your territory. The role is designed to be a launchpad: the clear career track leads to becoming a Territory Manager, where you will manage your own territory and earn unlimited commission and year-end bonuses. You will receive ample technical support, continuous training, and a monthly car allowance, allowing you to focus on building relationships and mastering our proprietary chemical blends and monitoring technology.

Hiring Process

To apply, please submit your resume through our official recruitment portal. We are looking for candidates who are committed to the industry and the Bay Area. Please note that Garratt-Callahan does not sponsor work visas, and we ask that no recruiters please contact us directly.

If you have a disability and require assistance during the application or selection process, please contact our Human Resources department at 650.697.5811. We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations to ensure a fair and accessible hiring process for all applicants.
