Build a Career Helping Local Businesses
Universal Energy Solutions is hiring full-time Client Retention Representatives to join our Houston team, serving sales throughout the Greater Houston area.
In this role, you’ll work directly to review their electricity and natural gas supply plans, introduce competitive supplier options, and recommend solutions that fit their business needs. You’ll primarily support existing customer relationships while continuing to grow your portfolio through new business development.
Unlike many customer-facing positions where every month starts over, you’ll build a book of business that can continue generating recurring income through customer renewals and long-term relationships.
What You’ll Do
Your day begins at the office, where you’ll connect with your team, prepare for the day ahead, and follow up with existing customer accounts before heading into your assigned territory. From there, you’ll control your productivity for the day in order to crush your goals. Responsibilities typically include:
- Build lasting relationships with existing residential customers.
- Meet face-to-face with decision-makers.
- Review current electricity and natural gas supply plans.
- Help customers identify opportunities to reduce their energy costs.
- Recommend energy supplier options based on each customer’s needs.
- Support customers through future renewals and ongoing energy needs.
- Develop new business opportunities between customer appointments.
- Build and grow your own portfolio of commercial accounts.
- Travel throughout an assigned territory (typically within a 30-mile radius of the office).
Is This a Good Fit for You?
Successful Client Retention Representatives come from a variety of backgrounds, but they all enjoy working with people, building relationships, and helping customers find solutions. Many of our top performers previously worked in customer service, retail, hospitality, banking, sales, or other customer-facing roles. Former athletes also tend to excel because they’re competitive, coachable, and motivated by achieving goals. If you’re someone with a strong work ethic, a positive attitude, and the drive to continually improve, we’ll provide the training and support to help you succeed.
Compensation
Performance-Based Earnings + Residual Income
- Commission earned on new accounts
- Residual commissions on existing accounts you continue to manage
- Increased earning potential as you build and grow your client portfolio
Typical first-year on-target earnings (OTE) range from $65,000–$90,000, with top performers earning $125,000+ by consistently exceeding performance goals and growing their book of business.
*Additional compensation structures may be available for qualified applicants.
Paid Training & Career Development
Your previous experience gives you a foundation—we’ll help you build on it. You’ll receive paid, hands-on training focused on our industry, products, client management process, and approach to growing a book of business.
As you progress, you’ll have access to continued coaching, mentorship, and professional development designed to strengthen your skills and prepare you for future opportunities in leadership and business management. Our long-term growth depends on developing talented people who are ready to take on more.
