Solar Sales Representative– Commercial, Industrial&Agricultu …, Johannesburg

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.
