  • Identify upcoming commercial projects and position the company as a preferred provider
  • Build and maintain a strong pipeline of qualified opportunities
  • Follow up consistently with prospects and existing relationships
  • Work closely with internal teams to move opportunities from initial conversation through proposal and closing
  • Attend networking events, industry events, and meetings to expand the company's presence
  • Maintain strong relationships after the sale to encourage repeat business and referrals
  • Meet and exceed individual sales and revenue goals

Qualifications
  • Previous experience in business development, outside sales, or commercial sales
  • Strong relationship-building and networking skills
  • Comfortable prospecting and developing business from the ground up
  • Self-motivated and able to manage a sales territory independently
  • Excellent communication, presentation, and negotiation skills
  • Comfortable traveling throughout NY and NJ

  • Experience in EV charging, HVAC, electrical, construction, energy, or building services is a strong plus
  • Valid driver's license and ability to travel throughout the territory

Compensation
  • $60,000 Base Salary + High Commission

This position offers significant earning potential for a strong salesperson. The commission structure is designed to reward performance, new business development, and successful project generation.

Why This Opportunity?
This is an opportunity to build business in two rapidly growing and essential sectors: EV charging infrastructure and commercial HVAC. The right candidate will have the freedom to develop relationships, expand the company's footprint throughout NY and NJ, and earn substantial commissions based on performance.
