About the Role

We are looking for a Solar Sales Advisor to help grow our customer base and guide homeowners toward becoming energy independent. This role involves helping customers transition from interest to agreeing to a solar installation through high-quality audio and video calls, designing custom solar arrays, and presenting tailored quotes. It is a dynamic, fast-paced sales role with no cold calling, backed by inbound leads and returning customers, offering an uncapped commission structure in a purpose-driven, rapidly growing industry.

Responsibilities

Guide customers through all aspects of their initial solar journey from first contact to successfully agreeing to a solar installation.
Complete pre-booked audio and video calls with prospective customers to understand their energy needs.
Design appropriate solar arrays and produce, present, and discuss accurate customer quotes.
Maintain high conversion rates by utilising excellent negotiation skills and an energetic approach to finalising sales.
Actively identify opportunities to upsell extras, such as battery storage and EV charge points, to provide a complete energy solution.
Manage the customer journey via our CRM, acting as the main point of contact for any questions regarding quotes and ensuring an exceptional experience.
Remain unphased when speaking to customers, confidently problem-solving and overcoming objections to secure the sale.

Requirements

Previous sales experience is required, with a track record of meeting performance targets.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills with strong multi-channel contact handling abilities.
Proven ability to prioritise your workload and adapt quickly to changing customer and business requirements.
Comfortable working with customers who require a more bespoke service and able to overcome challenges in service delivery.
A genuine passion to change the way we use energy, helping people make the shift away from fossil fuels towards cleaner energy.
You thrive in a fast-paced environment and are eager to bring in new business.
You possess a strong belief in providing excellent customer service, championing the customer journey, and taking ownership of complaints to deliver a positive outcome.
You are a strong team player who ensures consistency across the business, while remaining flexible, reliable, and reactive to department demands.
You have a strong drive for process improvement, a willingness to take the initiative, and a desire to be upskilled to a high standard across all tasks.
