Who We Are

Bluewater provides comprehensive and innovative solutions for managing the lifecycle of large format batteries and solar panels. As a startup committed to further developing a circular economy, we innovate in the reuse, recycling, and resale of EV, e-mobility, material handling equipment, and energy storage technologies to promote sustainability and resource efficiency. We’re on an exciting mission to reduce inefficiencies and enable a secondary marketplace for renewable energy equipment, and we’re doing it in an emerging segment of renewable energy where strong operators can set the standard for growth and innovation.

  • Drive strategy and lead teams in prospecting, deal structuring, negotiation, and account management best practices

  • Enhance CRM discipline and pipeline accuracy, while collaborating with teams internally to improve operational efficiency

  • Define, track, and report on team goals and KPIs, ensuring strong pipeline health, forecast accuracy, and performance visibility

  • Partner with leadership to refine go-to-market strategy, sales processes, and account ownership

  • Collaborate closely with Operations, Compliance, and internal teams to ensure smooth execution and customer satisfaction

Qualifications

  • 5–8+ years of experience in sales, business development, or account management, including at least 2 years of prior management experience

  • Strong coaching, communication, and interpersonal skills

  • Comfortable analyzing performance data and using insights to improve outcomes

  • Experience with CRM platforms (e.g., Zoho, HubSpot, Salesforce) and sales reporting

  • Highly organized, proactive, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced startup environment

  • Experience in renewable energy, sustainability, or circular economy solutions is a plus

  • Enthusiasm towards travel for client meetings, team development, and industry events


Benefits

Why Bluewater?

  • Opportunity for rapid career growth and clear ownership 

  • Comprehensive health benefits: Bluewater provides a Gold PPO medical plan, with 100% of employee medical, dental, and vision premiums covered.
