Job description

Introduction

Drive solar sales with autonomy, great rewards, and cutting-edge solutions!

Is this you?

You’re a dynamic sales professional with a proven track record in the solar PV industry. You know how to listen to clients, offer them the right solution, and close the deal. You’re confident navigating a sales pipeline from lead generation to follow-up, and you thrive in fast-paced, travel-heavy roles. Motivated by results and well-versed in solar technology, you’re ready to take ownership of a key region and grow your footprint.

What you’ll be doing (and why you’ll enjoy it)

You’ll be representing a leading solar solutions provider, selling a comprehensive range of PV systems and components to residential, commercial, and industrial customers. This includes conducting site and needs analyses, presenting tailored solutions, managing a full sales pipeline via CRM, and building long-term partnerships with installers, distributors, and major retailers. You’ll work closely with technical teams while driving revenue growth across the Western Cape.

Where you’ll be doing it

Our client is a well-established renewable energy company focused on high-quality solar PV products. Operating nationally, they pride themselves on innovation, customer service, and empowering staff with the tools and autonomy to succeed. With strong roots in the industry and a forward-thinking culture, they offer the chance to work with respected brands and help lead the charge toward a sustainable future.

What you’ll need

At least 2 years’ experience in external solar PV sales is essential, as is fluency in both English and Afrikaans. You should be CRM-savvy, confident using MS Office and BRM tools, and able to travel up to 75% of the time. A valid driver’s licence is required. Matric is a must, and a relevant post-matric qualification would be a plus. German language skills are advantageous.

What you’ll get

A guaranteed basic salary plus commission and great extras. You’ll also receive turnover-based commission and 21 days’ paid leave. This is a high-reward role in a stable and fast-growing company.
