Account Executive

$140k

Energy CX

Account Executive

Chicago, Illinois, United States

Energy CX is redefining the energy brokerage industry as the fastest-growing player in the US. By bringing cutting-edge technology, advanced analytics, and innovative solutions, we are disrupting a space that has operated in the dark for too long.

Why Energy CX?
  • Recession proof industry
  • Uncapped commission with competitive salary
  • Entrepreneurial and ambitious culture with a great team oriented environment
  • Fastest growing energy broker in the country
  • One of the fastest growing companies in Chicago
  • Recognized by Fortune and Great Places to work US
  • Named on Inc 5000's list of America's fastest growing companies

Compensation

  • Year 1 -> $140,000
  • Year 2 -> $215,000
  • Year 3 -> $340,000
  • Year 4 -> $415,000
  • Year 5 -> $465,000-$515,000+

The above figures are conservative estimates; commissions are uncapped, and accelerators and other incentives provide the opportunity to earn beyond these amounts. Year 1 and 2 OTEs are flexible and can be adjusted based on experience and overall fit.

  • Develop account plans that align with Energy CX's overall strategy, identifying key decision-makers, buying processes, pain points, and opportunities
  • Build relationships with customers to understand their goals and desired business outcomes as you work to expand accounts
  • Effectively communicate Energy CX's value proposition to potential customers
  • Own the full sales cycle, from scheduling exploratory meetings through closing

Skills & Qualifications

  • 2+ years in sales (base salary will depend on experience)
  • Proven track record of success
  • Highly personable - someone who can connect with anyone and develop rapport
  • GRIT - a demonstrated record of consistent performance
  • Hunter mentality with a passion for securing new logos across new categories
