About the role

We're seeking a  to drive large-scale partnerships for third-party owned EV charging networks. This strategic role focuses on identifying and closing high-value B2B and B2G contracts with property developers, fleet owners, convenience stores, retail chains, and municipalities—particularly those eligible for public incentives like NEVI, EPA, and utility programs.

This is a revenue-generating leadership position ideal for someone who thrives in fast-paced, early-stage environments and can own complex deal cycles from first pitch to execution.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead national and regional business development with site hosts (real estate owners, retailers, fleet operators, municipalities, universities, and fueling networks)

  • Structure and close public-private partnership deals that leverage federal and state incentives, including NEVI, MassEVIP, and utility rebates

  • Build proposals, term sheets, and strategic deployment models for Level 3 (DCFC) and Level 2 networks

  • Oversee contract negotiation, stakeholder alignment (legal, finance, engineering), and program launches

  • Cultivate relationships with key ecosystem players (utilities, EV automakers, installers, community orgs) to accelerate site acquisition

  • Collaborate with internal teams to track metrics, report KPIs, and refine commercial strategy

  • Represent Re-Volt at trade shows, industry events, and policy roundtables

Requirements & Experience

Must-Have:

  • 3–5 years of experience in B2B commercial sales, site acquisition, or EV infrastructure partnerships

  • Strong understanding of the EV charging ecosystem: OEMs, installers, utilities, and public funding sources

  • Proven track record of negotiating and closing multi-stakeholder deals in energy, mobility, or real estate

  • Highly skilled communicator across technical and executive audiences

  • Deep knowledge of CRM systems (HubSpot preferred), Excel, and deal pipeline management

  • Strong project management skills and ability to navigate competing timelines

  • Ability to travel 50–60% as needed for site visits, client meetings, and events

Nice-to-Have:

  • Experience with NEVI or other federal/state grants

  • Prior work in real estate, transportation electrification, or renewable energy verticals

  • Experience building revenue models and business cases for hardware + software deployments

  • Enthusiasm for equity-centered climate solutions

Compensation

  • Competitive commission-based structure + milestone-based bonus

  • Equity consideration for high-impact contributors

  • Salary discussion after 3–6 months, based on pipeline and closed deals

  • Opportunity to shape the national growth strategy of one of the most mission-aligned EV startups in the U.S.
