B2B Sales, Business Development, Sales Representative
For more than 50 years, Sohnen Enterprises has been giving consumer electronics and appliances a second life. As one of North America's largest independent refurbishers, we work with major retailers, brands, and partners to turn returned and excess products into high-quality, profitable products.
We're not just moving boxes - we're creating value from products that would otherwise go to waste.
Why This Role Is DifferentIf you love selling, negotiating, building relationships, and finding a great deal, this is the role for you.
You'll work directly with our sales and business unit leaders, have visibility into our operations, and play a hands‑on role in making deals happen. You'll also have the opportunity to visit our Tijuana refurbishment operation quarterly, giving you a firsthand look at how products are processed, refurbished, and prepared for their next life.
What You'll Do- Sell a wide range of refurbished consumer electronics and appliances, including refrigerators, TVs, small appliances, and more.
- Hunt for new business—prospect, network, make connections, and turn opportunities into customers.
- Build and maintain strong B2B customer relationships while identifying opportunities to grow existing accounts.
- Develop creative, profitable sales strategies based on inventory, customer needs, and market opportunities.
- Negotiate pricing and close deals that drive revenue and margin.
- Partner with Sales, Operations, Warehouse, and Logistics to take deals from quote to delivery.
- Stay engaged throughout the fulfillment process to ensure customers receive the support they need.
- Become a trusted resource for customers by understanding their business, challenges, and buying needs.
- Travel to our Tijuana facilities quarterly to stay connected to our refurbishment operation, inventory, and product capabilities.
- 3+ years of B2B sales or account management experience; consumer electronics, appliances, liquidation, closeout, or refurbished products is a major plus.
- A true hunter mentality - you enjoy prospecting, opening doors, negotiating, and closing.
- Strong relationship‑building and communication skills.
- Comfortable selling products where inventory, condition, pricing, and timing can change quickly.
- Strong business judgment and the ability to identify a profitable opportunity.
- Comfortable working with Excel, including VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP, Pivot Tables, and basic data analysis.
- Liquidation, surplus, secondary‑market, or refurbished product sales experience is highly desirable.
- Willingness and ability to travel to Tijuana quarterly.
- Most importantly: you enjoy selling and you know how to turn an opportunity into a deal.
At Sohnen, you won't be selling the same product day after day. Every load, customer, and opportunity can be different. If you're the type of salesperson who gets excited about finding the right buyer for the right inventory - and making a deal that works for everyone - you'll have plenty of room to make an impact.
Come help us give great products a second life—and build a great business while doing it.
