• Act as a trusted advisor on electrical infrastructure and energy management solutions.
• Support customers and consultants with system design concepts, resilience strategies, sustainability initiatives and energy efficiency requirements.
• Deliver technical presentations, CPD sessions and workshops.
• Provide guidance on relevant industry standards, regulations and best practices.
• Translate customer needs into practical and commercially viable solutions.

Project Support and Internal Collaboration

• Work closely with sales, application engineering, marketing, product management and channel teams.
• Support projects from early engagement through to successful execution.
• Help protect and maintain specifications throughout the project lifecycle.
• Maintain accurate project, account and opportunity information within Salesforce.

• 3+ years' experience in a sales, business development or specification role within the electrical industry.
• Electrical industry experience across areas such as power distribution, critical power, building services, lighting, energy management, automation, renewables or related sectors.
• Experience working with consultants, contractors, panel builders, end users or channel partners.
• Strong relationship-building skills with the ability to influence customer decisions and identify new opportunities.
• Commercially minded with a proven ability to develop and grow business.
• Experience with specification sales, consultant engagement or project-based selling.
• Exposure to products within the electrical sector.
• Experience using CRM systems such as Salesforce.
• Understanding of electrical systems and infrastructure.
• Knowledge of building services, industrial applications or energy management.
• Awareness of relevant industry standards.
• Business development and opportunity generation.
• Account management and strategic selling.
• Pipeline and CRM management.
