About ESR Motor Systems
ESR Motor Systems moves new motors and drives (ABB, Baldor, Siemens, WEG, Toshiba, TECO and other lines) out of stocking branches to three kinds of buyer: industrial end users, OEMs and resellers. The direct side is built branch by branch, with outside reps in the field calling on plants and OEMs and an inside team at each warehouse handling quotes and orders; a separate National Division sells to motor repair shops, power transmission distributors and electrical supply houses, kept apart from the direct force to avoid channel conflict. Of 13 postings on its board, 11 are sales jobs and every one is in the US: eight home-based outside sales territories, a strategic account executive in Houston, and a business development rep and an inside sales rep for the National Division. The territory roles are hunting jobs, prospecting for new industrial accounts and walking plant floors to learn equipment and failure patterns, and some are meant to seed a future branch (the Alabama and Mississippi seat, for one, works out of Atlanta until a local branch opens). The Houston seat wants a producer who already sells to refineries and petrochemical plants along the Ship Channel and can reach a multi-million-dollar yearly run rate within 18 months, while the National Division BDR is asked to build toward about $1 million in new sales in the same span.

Job seekers never pay to use this board. An Apply button opens the employer's own application page, or the page of the recruiting firm filling the seat; only where a company or its recruiting firm pays us for a hire who came from here does that link carry our referral code, and the fee comes from them, never out of the base or OTE the role offers you.
