How to Apply for Northeast Regional Sales Account Manager
at Endera
🏢 About Endera
Endera is unique as a mission-driven company focused exclusively on affordable commercial electric vehicles, specifically targeting the shuttle bus market to reduce environmental impact. Unlike traditional vehicle manufacturers, they combine sustainable energy adoption with practical business solutions, offering candidates the chance to sell products that directly contribute to cleaner transportation.
About This Role
This role involves driving shuttle bus sales across the Northeast by identifying new opportunities, conducting on-site demos, and managing customer relationships in a multi-state territory. It's impactful because you'll be directly expanding Endera's market presence in commercial EVs while helping organizations transition to sustainable transportation solutions.
💡 A Day in the Life
A typical day might involve morning virtual meetings with internal teams to coordinate order specifications, followed by travel to a potential client site in Massachusetts for a shuttle bus demonstration, then afternoon calls with existing customers in New York to discuss maintenance or future orders, ending with CRM updates and sales forecasting for the Northeast territory.
🚀 Application Tools
