Job Description

K2 Automation supplies hard-to-find and obsolete PLC, drive, HMI and motor components (Siemens, Allen-Bradley, ABB) to manufacturers across North America. We're growing our Houston sales team.

This is a hunting role. Most of your day is outbound: cold calling plant maintenance managers, engineers and purchasing teams in food & beverage, paper, machine building and heavy industry.

You will:

  • Make 50+ outbound calls a day and run prospecting sequences.
  • Re-activate lapsed and dormant accounts.
  • Respond quickly to inbound web and ad leads.
  • Quote RFQs and follow every quote to a decision.
  • Open at least 2 new accounts a month.
  • Report to our Sales Manager.

You bring:

  • 1–4 years of B2B sales with a proven outbound or cold-calling track record. Industrial distribution, MRO or electrical experience is preferred.
  • Resilience on the phone, and discipline with CRM notes and follow-up.
  • Automation parts knowledge is a plus; we'll teach the product.

Pay: $41,600–$45,500 base plus uncapped commission on margin. First-year OTE is $60k–$75k. 401(k) with 4% match, 15 days PTO plus 6 holidays, and medical from January 2027.

\nCompany Description

K2 Automation supplies hard-to-find, obsolete and current-line automation components to manufacturers across North America and Europe: PLCs, drives, HMIs, motors and I/O modules from Siemens, Allen-Bradley, ABB and other major brands.

When a production line goes down and the part is discontinued, K2 is who maintenance managers, engineers and purchasing teams call. We win on speed, sourcing reach and competitive pricing.

Founded in 2020, K2 operates from Houston, the UK and Germany. K2 Automation LLC is our US business, and we're building the Houston team now. Early hires get direct access to leadership, ownership of their own accounts, and the chance to grow with the business as it scales.
