Nassau Cable has been distributing industrial and commercial wire and cable for over 60 years. We’re growing, and we’re looking for a sharp, driven person to be the right hand of our Sales Lead.
Why you’ll like working here
- Real ownership, real impact. You work directly with the Sales Lead and see your quotes turn into closed deals.
- Earn more than your base. Commission can start from month 1 (based on solid performance metrics), plus mid-year and year-end bonuses when targets are met. Your earnings grow with your results.
- Relaxed, no-BPO culture. We’re not a call center. No tracking apps, no log-in/log-out, no micromanagement. We care about results, not screen time.
- Great people. Open communication, real teamwork, and colleagues who help when you need it. Everyone is one message away.
- We actually do things together. Team outings to soccer, volleyball, and padel, bowling, a spa day, breakfast or lunch brought to the office, and a big year-end celebration.
- Hybrid. Only two days a week at our office on Avenida El Poblado (Tuesdays and Wednesdays).
- US holidays off and paid. Colombian holidays are working days, sometimes from home.

Schedule & compensation
- Schedule: Monday to Friday, 8AM to 6PM New York time (1-hour lunch + two breaks). We sell 100% online, so this is our customer service window.
- Commission from month 1 (performance-based; we’ll walk you through how it works in the interview) + mid-year and year-end bonuses if targets are met
- Health insurance, pension, cesantías, and primas are not covered. After the 6-month trial period you receive a USD $80/month bonus to help with your health and pension contributions
