• Advise clients on energy procurement, guide them through electricity and natural gas purchasing decisions, evaluate supplier proposals and procurement options, lead competitive RFP processes and supplier negotiations, help customers understand market drivers, capacity charges, transmission costs, and pricing risk, and support energy management, demand response, sustainability, and cost-reduction initiatives.
• Partner with internal subject matter experts to deliver sophisticated market and risk management solutions.
• Generate new opportunities through referrals, networking, chambers of commerce, trade associations, affinity partners, and existing client relationships.
• Expand existing client relationships and identify additional opportunities to support their energy needs.
• Present energy solutions and market insights to prospective clients.

Requirements

• 5+ years of experience in consultative sales, account management, business development, financial services, insurance brokerage, energy consulting, client advisory services, or a related customer-facing profession.
• Demonstrated success building and maintaining long-term client relationships.
• Strong communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills.
• Ability to explain complex concepts in a way that is easily understood by business decision-makers.
• Self-motivated and comfortable working independently in a remote environment.
• Excellent organizational and time-management skills.
• Willingness to travel locally to meet clients and attend networking and industry events.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in energy consulting, energy procurement, energy brokerage, utility services, or deregulated energy markets.
• Knowledge of PJM electricity markets.
• Experience advising commercial or industrial customers.
• Familiarity with electricity, natural gas, or energy risk management strategies.
