Account Executive to the Managing Partner
About The Position
Transparent Energy is redefining how organizations buy energy through a proprietary auction platform that has facilitated over $5B+ in transactions and generated $375M+ in client savings. We are hiring an Account Executive to the Managing Partner — a unique, high-exposure role for someone who wants to level up quickly, operate at the center of major deals, and gain direct access to executive-level decision making. This is not a traditional business development role. You will work side-by-side with the founder & owner, supporting business development, deal origination, and strategic partnerships while helping execute on some of the largest energy transactions in the country. This role sits at the intersection of Business Development, Account Management, and Executive Support. You will act as a force multiplier for the Managing Partner — helping drive pipeline, coordinate deals, and execute on high-priority strategic initiatives.
