Description

What We Do & Why You Should Join Us

Canter Power Systems is the largest residential standby generator installer in the United States. We’ve experienced unmatched growth over the last several years—and we’re just getting started.

Today, fewer than 5% of U.S. homes have standby generator systems. As extreme weather events and grid instability increase, we expect that number to grow to 10% over the next several years. Our mission is to lead that growth and help homeowners protect what matters most.

Canter Power Systems currently operates in eight states and is the largest residential standby generator installation partner for The Home Depot. We also serve as the exclusive provider for additional utility partners nationwide.

We’ve built a best-in-class installation and operations model. Our next phase of growth depends on expanding a high-performing sales organization—and that’s where you come in.

The Challenges You’ll Help Solve

  • Building and scaling a national sales organization with consistent, predictable close rates
  • Improving in-home sales effectiveness through better customer communication
  • Increasing generator adoption by clearly aligning customer needs, budgets, and solutions

Additional Responsibilities Include

  • Becoming a subject-matter expert on our products, installation process, and market position
  • Staying aligned with the broader Canter sales team on industry trends and customer insights
  • Representing the voice of the customer to help refine sales messaging and strategy

Success in this role is directly tied to your ability to effectively sell and close residential generator solutions.

Day-to-Day Experience

Training & Onboarding

  • Participate in structured, in-class training focused on generator sales and processes
  • Shadow experienced sales professionals through ride-along opportunities
