Job description

About Saxon Renewables

Saxon Renewables helps organisations accelerate their sustainability journey through practical, science-based solutions. We work with corporates across Asia to reduce their carbon footprint and achieve renewable energy targets through onsite and offsite Renewable Energy Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), carbon credits, and broader decarbonisation strategies.

As demand for renewable energy and climate solutions continues to accelerate, we are looking for a driven Business Development Executive to expand our corporate client portfolio. This role sits at the intersection of sales, advisory, and deal execution, working directly with decision-makers to structure solutions that deliver credible climate outcomes while supporting business and compliance objectives.

Your Mission

• Drive sales and close Demand Response (BESS Hosting) deals with commercial & industrial (C&I) clients, from lead generation to contract signing.
• Identify and engage potential clients through cold outreach (calls, emails, LinkedIn), events, and existing company networks.
• Clearly communicate the value proposition of BESS hosting solutions (cost savings, additional revenue, sustainability benefits) to decision-makers.
• Support proposal preparation, basic financial analysis, and coordination with internal technical teams to deliver client-ready solutions.
• Build and maintain strong client relationships to ensure smooth deal execution and identify upsell opportunities.
• Learn and progressively promote Saxon's broader solutions (e.g. RECs, solar, decarbonisation strategies) to existing clients.
• Maintain an active sales pipeline, track progress in CRM tools, and meet individual sales targets.
• Conduct basic market research to identify target industries, key accounts, and emerging opportunities in Singapore.
• Collaborate closely with senior BD team members and internal stakeholders to improve sales strategies and conversion rates.

What You'll Gain

• Hands-on experience in closing real B2B deals in the fast-growing energy transition space, with a strong focus on Demand Response (BESS Hosting).
• A clear learning pathway from core sales execution to broader exposure in renewable energy solutions such as RECs, solar, and decarbonisation strategies.
• Direct client-facing experience with commercial & industrial (C&I) companies, building confidence in pitching, negotiation, and relationship management.
• Practical understanding of how energy solutions create financial value for clients (cost savings, new revenue streams, sustainability outcomes).
• Exposure to a dynamic and evolving market influenced by energy policies, carbon regulations, and corporate sustainability demand.
• A supportive and collaborative team environment with mentorship from experienced BD professionals.
• Strong career growth opportunities in business development, energy solutions, and sustainability advisory.
