A Quoter typically prepares and delivers price quotes to customers or sales reps — pulling specs, applying pricing rules, and coordinating with sales, operations, and customers to turn requests into formal quotes.
Daily rhythm involves quote requests, system lookups, pricing calculations, and follow-up coordination with sales or customers. You'll often work inside ERP or quoting systems with multiple pricing rules — discounts, terms, freight, custom configurations. Pacing varies with sales volume and complexity.
The detail load can surprise newcomers — small errors in specs or pricing can lose deals or create margin problems. Coordination with sales reps, operations, and customers is constant. Speed and accuracy often pull against each other, and finding the right balance takes practice.
People who thrive here typically have strong attention to detail, comfort with technical specs, and steady communication. The temperament to handle high quote volume while maintaining accuracy usually matters more than any specific industry background.
