About Maddox + You:

You will be an integrated part of a small, but powerful, sales team. You will be using our established sales processes to help commercial and industrial end-users, electrical contractors, and resellers of industrial electrical equipment purchase the right transformer for their project or application.

Reactively, you will be responding to customer requests, understanding their needs, and proposing technical and commercial solutions in a timely manner. You need to be great at solving technical and commercial problems in a fast-paced, data-driven workflow.

Proactively, you will be following up with existing clients or maintaining communication with our network of industry contacts; this is not a cold-calling or hard-selling environment. It's an inside sales role ideally suited to a technically-minded, people-person who excels at providing a high-level of customer service to contractors, engineers, purchasing agents, and industrial/commercial end users.

More about You:

• You enjoy interacting with people and solving technical and commercial problems.
• Your clients will be located all across the country, so you need to make a great impression with your communication skills via phone and email.
• You demonstrate fantastic written communication. You will need to maintain many email conversations each day. If your grammar is poor, or you are slow at writing emails, you will struggle in this role.
• You are focused and able to maintain good attention to detail.
• You are savvy with modern software. If you prefer an "old school" (pile of handwritten notes) workflow, you are not a fit for this role.
• You prefer a healthy team vs. operating as a lone wolf.

Skills & Experience:

We value experience, so if you have 20+ years of related experience, that's great! We're also very good at training new recruits, and are willing to invest in a select number of promising early-career candidates with the right attitude and ambition. Depending on the exact role, technical and engineering degrees may be desired, but not required.

Basics:

• Full-time. The schedule is generally 7:00 AM - 4:00 PM.
• Drug-free workplace
• In-person

Comprehensive Full-Time Benefits, including:

• 3 Weeks Paid Time Off (PTO) (and an additional week for managers, and an additional week after 5 years).
• Health & Wellness: Can be taken as traditional insurance, or as cash in lieu of benefits. Benefit amounts vary based on age, family status, and eligibility, but as an example, in most circumstances, an employee with a spouse and 3 kids, would be eligible for $19,200 / year or more.
• Paid paternity/maternity leave
• 401k with 100% match up to 8% of wages.
• Paid holidays, marriage and family gifts to celebrate significant life events, and other reimbursements and voluntary benefits and coverages (such as Vision, Dental, Short Term Disability, Additional Life Insurance, Accident, etc), as eligible.

Pay: Starting range: $88.8k-$92.6k (wages and bonus) plus a comprehensive full-time benefits package that averages more than an additional $20k/year per employee (individual amounts vary on age, family size, and other factors).

Pro Tip: We get a LOT of applicants, so if you want to stand out, write a few sentences telling us what stood out to you, and why you think you'd thrive in this particular opportunity.
