Descripción del empleo

Nassau Cable has been distributing industrial and commercial wire and cable for over 60 years. We’re growing, and we’re looking for a sharp, driven person to be the right hand of our Sales Lead.

Why you’ll like working here

• Real ownership, real impact. You work directly with the Sales Lead and see your quotes turn into closed deals.
• Earn more than your base. Commission can start from month 1 (based on solid performance metrics), plus mid-year and year-end bonuses when targets are met. Your earnings grow with your results.
• Relaxed, no-BPO culture. We’re not a call center. No tracking apps, no log-in/log-out, no micromanagement. We care about results, not screen time.
• Great people. Open communication, real teamwork, and colleagues who help when you need it. Everyone is one message away.
• We actually do things together. Team outings to soccer, volleyball, and padel, bowling, a spa day, breakfast or lunch brought to the office, and a big year-end celebration.
• Hybrid. Only two days a week at our office on Avenida El Poblado (Tuesdays and Wednesdays).
• US holidays off and paid. Colombian holidays are working days, sometimes from home.
