Description:
Our client is expanding aggressively into the Commercial, Industrial, and Agricultural sectors, offering innovative solar solutions to help businesses nationwide cut energy costs, achieve sustainability, and overcome challenges. If you’re a proven ” hunter” in new business development – not account management – with a track record of closing B2B deals, this role is for you. Sell and market solar systems across South Africa, driving growth in high-potential markets.
Key Responsibilities:
- Focus on new business acquisition in B2B environments, targeting commercial (e.g., offices, retail), industrial (e.g., manufacturing, mining), and agricultural (e.g., farms, agribusiness) clients.
- Generate leads through cold calling, networking, and self-sourced opportunities to build a strong sales pipeline.
- Conduct professional presentations, negotiations, and boardroom discussions with high emotional intelligence (EQ), emphasizing clear communication, literacy, and punctuality.
- Customize solar proposals highlighting ROI, financing options, government incentives (e.g., REIPPPP, tax rebates), and tailored systems like grid-tied, off-grid, or hybrid setups.
- Collaborate with technical teams for seamless project delivery, from initial consultation to installation.
- Achieve ambitious sales targets while maintaining a well-dressed, presentable professional image.
Requirements:
- Minimum 4 years of proven sales experience in the solar, renewable energy, or related industry, with verifiable track records (commission sheets required).
- Expertise in new business development – we’re seeking aggressive hunters, not account managers or those from non-sales backgrounds (e.g., no farmers).
- Strong B2B skills, including cold calling, lead generation, negotiation, and relationship-building.
- Valid driver’s license and own reliable transport for nationwide travel.
- Familiarity with South African energy markets, Eskom tariffs, and sector-specific challenges in commercial, industrial, and agri spaces is essential.
What Our Client Offers:
- Competitive CTC package of R20,000–R35,000 per month, based on experience, plus uncapped commission – top performers can significantly exceed this.
- Opportunities for professional growth in a fast-evolving renewable energy sector.
- Supportive environment with tools for success, including leads, training, and resources to combat energy challenges.
