Field Sales Representative (B2B Sales)
About the Role
Universal Energy Solutions is hiring full‑time Field Sales Representatives for its Union City team. You will work directly with local business owners to review electricity and natural gas supply plans, introduce competitive supplier options, and recommend solutions that fit each business’s needs. The position focuses on managing existing customer relationships while growing a portfolio through new business development, creating recurring income through renewals and long‑term relationships.
Why This Opportunity Is Different
Unlike many sales jobs that start each month from zero, this role lets you build a “business within the business” by nurturing lasting relationships that generate residual commissions. Many field sales reps stay for 10+ years, and the company is expanding into more than 20 markets, creating internal leadership pathways for Account Managers who want long‑term growth.

- Self‑motivated with strong organizational abilities.
- Prior knowledge or experience in the deregulated energy field is a plus.
Compensation
Performance‑based earnings plus residual income. Commission is earned on new accounts and on existing accounts you continue to manage. First‑year on‑target earnings (OTE) typically range from $65,000 – $90,000, with top performers exceeding $125,000 by growing their book of business. Additional compensation structures may be available for qualified applicants.
