Associate Sales Engineer in East Granby, Connecticut at Kinsley Group

Kinsley Group is ramping up for our SalesPath Rotational Development Program – Summer 2026, a structured 6-month program designed to build the next generation of commercial leaders in energy solutions.

This is not a traditional entry-level sales role. Our Associate Sales Engineers complete an immersive, hands-on development experience designed specifically for outside sales — built for ambitious, technically minded professionals who want to build a long-term career in territory-based field sales.

Because this is a field-based career path, candidates must be willing to relocate within Kinsley’s geographic territory as business needs and growth opportunities arise.

What You'll Do:

• Complete structured rotations across core business units, gaining full lifecycle exposure from opportunity identification through execution and closeout
• Support live projects and customer meetings in a true outside sales environment, engaging contractors, engineers, and end users
• Develop technical knowledge of generators, switchgear, transfer switches, load banks, fuel systems, CHP, battery storage, and integrated energy solutions
• Build discipline in quoting, CRM management, forecasting, and territory planning
• Learn consultative selling strategies and account development best practices
• Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, operations, and service teams
• Gain exposure to capital projects, service agreements, and temporary power solutions through hands-on field immersion

What We're Looking For:

• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related technical field
• Strong technical aptitude and interest in industrial power systems
• Competitive, driven, and motivated to build a long-term sales career
• Comfortable engaging with contractors, engineers, and business leaders
• Strong communication and presentation skills
• Ability to travel between branches and customer sites throughout the Northeast
• Growth mindset and coachability

Successful completion of SalesPath prepares you for placement into a full-time Industrial Sales Engineer or related sales role. At Kinsley, we don’t just hire salespeople — we develop energy solutions leaders.
