This role starts as an army of one. You own the full BD cycle — marketing, prospecting, proposals, and close. As you build the book of business, you will have the opportunity to grow a team under you and transition into a leadership role focused on new market development, client growth, and long-term profitability.

Qualifications - A Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering preferred (Electrical Engineering strongly preferred). - Technical degree with equivalent industry experience or a proven track record of customer-facing technical sales and business development may be substituted. - 10+ years’ experience in the electrical, power, or utility industry. - Demonstrated track record of winning new business — opening new accounts, not just maintaining existing ones. - Experience taking a territory or market from early-stage to an established pipeline. - Working knowledge of electrical testing, protective relaying, switchgear commissioning, or substation services preferred. - Self-starter comfortable operating independently without a large support structure. - Established contacts in the power/utility/industrial market and a credible plan for market penetration and growth. - Experience building or managing a BD team a plus. Requirements - Seeing, hearing, clear speech, driving, ability to travel distances. Anticipated travel of 40–60%, typically weekdays. - Remote-friendly.
