Graduate / Inside Salesperson
$60,000 - $80,000 + 401(k) + Industry Leading Benefits + Full Health Package + Excellent Training + PTO + Progression to Management
Schenectady: Albany, NY
Are you a technically minded graduate looking to kickstart your career in a role that blends engineering insight with commercial strategy, offering structured training, real progression, and long-term success?
This is a rare opportunity to join a leading manufacturer in an inside sales role designed for growth. You'll step into a key position at the intersection of technology and business, where your development will be supported, and your career will move forward with purpose.
This is more than an entry-level sales role. You'll work directly with experienced engineers, customers, and contractors, learning how to translate technical specifications into tailored solutions, all while developing core sales, communication, and product knowledge that will set you up for long-term success in the industrial and manufacturing space.
In this role, you will respond to customer inquiries, build quotes, support the engineering team in proposal preparation, and help close sales across North America. You'll develop technical fluency in specialist high value products and become an expert in managing client relationships, negotiating terms, and seeing projects through from inquiry to installation.
This position would suit a mechanically inclined graduate with strong communication skills, a proactive mindset, and a desire to grow into a commercial leadership role in a supportive, high-performance environment.
The Person:
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with a problem-solving mindset
- Motivated by real responsibility, technical learning, and long-term career progression
The Role:
- Handle inbound sales inquiries, prepare technical proposals, and guide customers through product options
- Collaborate with engineering and service teams to develop tailored, technically sound solutions
- Receive structured training, ongoing mentorship, and the tools to build a successful technical sales career
