Job description

E³ Energy is a fast-growing renewable energy business with operations in Victoria and an expanding presence across New South Wales. Backed by a larger energy group, we specialise in Commercial & Industrial (C&I) solar and battery energy storage solutions, helping businesses reduce energy costs, improve energy efficiency, and achieve greater energy independence.

As part of our continued growth, we are establishing a new New South Wales operation with a dedicated focus on developing our C&I renewable energy business across the NSW market.

We work with leading solar, battery, and energy technology partners and are committed to delivering high-quality energy solutions, professional project delivery, and reliable customer support.

We are now looking for a motivated and commercially minded Business Development Manager to join our growing New South Wales team. This is an exciting opportunity to become part of the early-stage NSW operation and play an important role in building our local customer base, industry network, sales pipeline, and project opportunities.

About the Role

In this role, you will be responsible for developing new business opportunities across the New South Wales Commercial & Industrial (C&I) solar and battery energy storage market.

You will take ownership of the business development and sales process from prospecting and lead generation through to proposal presentation, commercial negotiation, contract execution, and project handover.

You will proactively identify and engage commercial and industrial customers and industry channels, develop a strong pipeline of potential projects, understand customers' energy requirements, coordinate site visits and technical assessments, and work closely with our Solution Consultants to develop suitable solar and battery solutions.

The role will focus on developing opportunities across a range of C&I customer segments, including commercial property, industrial facilities, warehouses, cold storage facilities, manufacturing businesses, and other energy-intensive commercial and industrial sites.

Working closely with our Sales, Solution Consulting, Engineering, Project Management, and Operations teams across Victoria and New South Wales, you will help convert business opportunities into viable projects and ensure a professional transition from sales to project delivery.

As this is a growing New South Wales operation, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to build the local market, establish key industry relationships, develop the customer pipeline, and contribute to the company's NSW growth strategy.
