Building CoServ’s Future: Many Paths, One Mission
DELIVERING SAFE, reliable, and affordable energy solutions requires a wide range of expertise, with CoServ’s headcount now well above 600 Employees. Everything from energy traders to financial accounting backgrounds will be critical as CoServ continues to grow past 500,000 combined electric and gas meters.
Here’s a look at five Employees who exemplify our dedication to service:
NAT Scarlett
STAN Jackson
STAN Abeyta
SONIA Vasquez
DANIEL Solis
Nat Scarlett wore many hats in her previous careers, including working for a utility in Georgia. Now she’s the Billing Manager for CoServ, ensuring Electric Members and Gas Customers are billed correctly and on time.
Stan Jackson bought and sold renewable energy for a major oil company. Now he oversees CoServ’s electricity and natural gas purchases, helping to keep our rates low.
Stan Abeyta worked for a large tech company for almost 30 years in various roles, including account manager. Now he’s the Manager of CoServ's Enterprise Project Management Office, overseeing software launches and construction projects, ensuring CoServ’s Investment in Tomorrow meets the needs of our Members and Customers.
Sonia Vasquez re-entered the workforce after being a stay-at-home mom and immediately put her past Customer Service experience to work. Two years into her career at CoServ, she was promoted to Customer Care Trainer, helping new hires learn how to provide exceptional customer service to Members and Customers.
Daniel Solis was new to the natural gas industry when he was hired by CoServ in 2014 but he learned fast and worked his way up through the ranks. Now he’s a Gas Construction Manager, overseeing CoServ Gas Technicians and contractors as they build new gas projects, repair hit or damaged lines, and bypass pressure regulators during cold weather.
There will be plenty more opportunities for advancement as the co-op is forecasted to double its meter count over the next 15 years. CoServ offers in-house leadership classes for career advancement as well as tuition reimbursement for those seeking a degree or certification.
“Just because you start in gas construction doesn’t mean that’s all you’re going to do,” Daniel said. “You can move up the ranks, become a supervisor, go to the lineman side, go to project management or engineering. There’s a lot of avenues you can take once you’re already in the company.”
While we look nothing like the small co-op that started as Denton County Electric Cooperative 89 years ago, CoServ strives every day to foster a culture and level of service that feels personal and special for all our Members and Customers.
“Everyone believes in the culture and their core values,” said Stan Jackson, CoServ’s Director of Energy Supply. “I’m working harder than ever because I don’t want to let anyone down.”
Stan Abeyta said he’s appreciative of his new career at CoServ after working a corporate job for several decades.
“I love the work-life balance. The way they care about their Employees. I think it’s different than anywhere else,” Stan Abeyta said. “Here, Employees are the key. In the corporate world, you’re just a number on a spreadsheet.”
CoServ has never been just another electric and gas utility and it’s never been just a job, it’s a career and we’ve saved a place for you!
