About Staples Energy

At Staples Energy, we’re driving the future of smart, efficient energy. Our mission is to deliver innovative, cost-saving, and eco-friendly solutions that empower both businesses and homeowners to reduce energy use and environmental impact.


We believe that everyone deserves a comfortable, healthy, and safe home—but not everyone can afford essential upgrades. That’s why we proudly participate in programs like the Energy Savings Assistance Program, which provides no-cost appliance upgrades and home repairs for eligible customers. From heat pump water heaters and furnaces to efficient lighting and refrigerators, we help households lower their bills, increase comfort, and improve energy efficiency at no charge.


As we continue to grow, we’re seeking a motivated, results-driven Sales Specialist who shares our passion for helping customers access energy solutions that make a lasting difference.


Position Overview

As a Sales Specialist, you’ll play a key role in connecting customers to impactful energy programs and services. You’ll work directly with homeowners, renters, and businesses to identify energy-saving opportunities, present program benefits, and help them access upgrades that make their spaces more efficient and affordable.


This position combines relationship building, consultative sales, and community outreach. The ideal candidate thrives on making a difference—helping people improve their homes while supporting a cleaner energy future.


Job Requirements:



  • Identify, qualify, and close sales opportunities for energy-efficient solutions.
  • Educate clients about available programs—like the Energy Savings Assistance Program—and guide them through the qualification and enrollment process.
  • Build and maintain strong, long-term relationships with clients to foster repeat business and referrals.
  • Collaborate with internal teams—including technical and project management—to ensure client satisfaction from proposal to completion.
  • Conduct on-site visits to assess opportunities, present recommendations, and close deals.
  • Stay informed about the latest energy efficiency programs, technologies, and utility incentives.
  • Consistently meet or exceed sales goals and performance targets.


Qualifications:


  •  2 years of proven sales experience with a track record of exceeding targets.
  •  Active Home Improvement Sales Certificate (HISC) required.
  •  Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills.
  •  Passion for helping others improve their homes and lives through energy solutions.
  •  Self-motivated, organized, and results-oriented.
  •  Valid driver’s license and willingness to travel regularly (including occasional overnight stays).


What We Offer:


  • Generous Commission-based compensation following a paid training period.
  •  Comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental, and vision coverage.
  •  401(k) and company sponsored life insurance options.
  •  Paid time off, including holidays, vacation, sick, and personal days.
  •  Travel allowance and company support for professional development.
  •  A collaborative, mission-driven work environment where your success is celebrated.
