Job Description

About Us
Antares Electrical Distributors supplies electrical materials to contractors, developers, home builders, and supply houses across the Caribbean. Our mission is simple: we make it easy for our clients to get what they need, when they need it. Our clients are building on islands where a wrong part or a slow quote can stall a job, so we need salespeople who are fast, accurate, and know their material. 

What You’ll Do

• Quote incoming requests for quotes (RFQs) and full project bills of materials (BOMs) quickly and accurately 
• Read through BOMs and takeoffs to catch missing items, wrong specs, and better alternatives before the quote goes out 
• Source pricing and lead times from manufacturers and vendors, and build competitive, profitable quotes 
• Follow up on open quotes to win the order 
• Convert customer orders into sales orders in NetSuite and make sure every line is right: part numbers, quantities, pricing, and shipping details 
• Place purchase orders with vendors for the material needed to fulfill each sales order 
• Track order status and keep clients updated on lead times, ship dates, and any changes 
• Coordinate with the warehouse on receiving, staging, and export shipping deadlines 
• Build relationships with contractors, developers, and supply houses throughout the Caribbean 

What We’re Looking For

• 2+ years of inside sales, quoting, or counter sales experience in electrical distribution (or a related construction supply field) 
• Solid product knowledge: wire and cable, conduit and fittings, distribution equipment, lighting, devices 
• Able to read and work through a BOM or material list with accuracy 
• Strong with numbers and margin; comfortable building quotes and pricing jobs 
• Experience with an ERP system (NetSuite a plus) 
• Clear, professional communication by phone and email 
• Organized enough to manage many open quotes and orders at once without dropping any 
• Bilingual English/Spanish strongly preferred 
• Export or Caribbean market experience a big plus 

How We Work  

• Honesty : Give clients real lead times and straight answers, even when it’s not what they want to hear. 
• Chase the Result : A quote isn’t done when it’s sent; it’s done when we win the order and the client gets their material. 
• Get It Right : Check every part number, quantity, and price before it goes out. 
• Own It : Your quotes and orders are yours from first request to final delivery. 
• Hustle : Fast quotes win jobs. When a client needs it today, you make it happen. 

What We Offer

• $17 – $21/hour, plus up to $3000/month in incentives based on productivity and gross profit 
• Full Health insurance, including Dental, Vision and Life insurance 
• 13-14 days a year for paid holidays off + 12 PTO days (personal)  
• 401k matching program 
• Training on our products, vendors, and systems 
• A small, growing team where your work directly drives results
