Red Ventures is adding 20 jobs in Wilmington.

Fort Mill, S.C.-based Red Ventures is expanding its Wilmington sales team, a move that means 20 new jobs.

According to spokesperson Kylie Craig, the internet marketing firm?s impending hires are the direct result of Red Ventures? 2012 acquisition of HomeInsurance.com.

?Since then, the business has grown incredibly,? she says, adding that the HomeInsurance workforce has expanded beyond Wilmington and is now also in Fort Mill. ?And our Wilmington team is knocking it out of the park.?

The jobs are all inside-sales positions offering hourly pay and uncapped commission. Average earners typically make between $40,000 and $60,000, she says. Inside-sales associates also have the opportunity to gain ownership of the company, she adds.

But will the extra 20 jobs mean a physical expansion in Wilmington?

?We are not expanding yet, but I definitely emphasize the ?yet,?? she says. ?We are looking to find new people, bring them in, and then just grow our presence in Wilmington.?

Hiring stories have been commonplace at Red Ventures lately, as our sister paper, Charlotte Business Journal, recently reported the company?s intention to hire 50 at its corporate campus.

Interested job seekers are encouraged to learn more by registering for an ?interview day? on the company website.

Currently, the company has 60 employees in Wilmington and 1,100 employees at the Fort Mill headquarters. As a whole, Red Ventures counts 1,950 employees in Miami, San Antonio, Fort Mill and Wilmington. More than 600 of those hires happened in the last six months.
