Job Description

Description:

The Director of Sales – Strategic Accounts is responsible for growing strategic commercial and industrial (C&I) end-user accounts across the United States.

Rather than selling individual products, the Director will position Charge as a long-term strategic infrastructure partner by delivering integrated solutions including energy efficiency, EV charging and fleet electrification, lighting, power quality, electrical infrastructure upgrades, distributed energy resources (DER), backup power, and related electrical contracting services. The objective is to develop long-term strategic accounts that generate recurring, multi-site projects across Charge Energy's full portfolio of capabilities.
