Sr. VP Sales and Business Development

About This Opportunity

Cascade Energy is at an inflection point. Our revenue is nearing nine figures with a services-led commercial motion built on relationships, technical credibility, and a thirty-year track record of delivering measurable energy savings and emissions reductions. We're planning the path to nearly double our topline before 2030, with growth across utility demand side management (DSM), demand flexibility, corporate-direct services, and software-enabled offerings. We need a high-energy, commercially sharp leader who can run our established business at scale while we build a new commercial motion alongside it. Our current team is strong and ready for leadership focused on our next phase: one that elevates executive-level selling, sharpens commercial discipline, establishes confidence in both pipeline and forecasting, builds the bench, and leads the team to higher performance without losing what makes it credible to customers today. This is the senior commercial seat for Cascade's established business and a peer seat in the leadership team building the next chapter.

What You Will Be Doing

• Lead and elevate a strong, seasoned sales team across three distinct channels: utility DSM (RFP-driven, long-cycle), corporate-direct services (consultative), and an implementer channel
• Bring urgency and commercial discipline without disrupting the technical credibility and customer trust that define Cascade's reputation
• Implement a consistent sales methodology with tools, CRM discipline, and pipeline forecasting the leadership team can rely on
• Coach Account Executives into executive-level selling — engaging COOs, CFOs, and Corporate Sustainability Officers with the language of business impact
• Partner closely with Marketing as a peer commercial function and with Product as a strategic ally
• Build the bench: develop the next generation of talent through coaching, performance management, and hiring discipline

Qualifications

• Ran a multi-channel B2B sales motion at $100M+ revenue scale, ideally in industrial, energy, utilities, or adjacent technical services

• Implemented a proven sales methodology — with the tools, training, and operating rhythm to make it stick
• Coached AEs into C-suite level selling
• Used CRM, pipeline analytics, and forecasting tools personally as a decision-maker
