Business Developer – Solar Solutions
Location: Cape Town
Salary: R 25 000.00 pm
Ready to break new ground in solar sales? Join a global leader and drive renewable growth across the Western Cape.
Is this you?
You’re a natural connector—motivated, independent, and commercially savvy. You know how to generate leads, close deals, and build long-term relationships. You thrive in a fast-paced, target-driven environment, and you’re passionate about clean energy and its role in shaping a better future. You’re based in Cape Town, comfortable working remotely, and have the drive to build business across the region.
What you’ll be doing (and why you’ll enjoy it)
You’ll take the lead on growing commercial solar sales in the Western Cape—identifying new clients, pitching solutions, and securing business across a competitive market. From solar panels to full solutions, you’ll represent a powerhouse in the renewable sector. You’ll coordinate with internal teams to craft competitive proposals, attend client meetings and site visits, and keep a finger on the pulse of market trends and competitor activity. This is a role for someone who wants autonomy, variety, and high impact.
Where you’ll be doing it
Our client is a major force in renewable energy, operating the largest solar panel manufacturing facility globally. They’re known for quality, innovation, and a deep commitment to driving Africa’s clean energy transition. You’ll be joining a dynamic, fast-scaling business where initiative and results are recognised and rewarded.
What you’ll need
At least 2 years’ experience in solar or renewable energy sales, with a proven track record of generating and closing leads. Strong communication skills are essential, as is your own transport for occasional site visits (fuel reimbursed). Technical knowledge of solar systems is a plus, but your ability to open doors is what matters most.
What you’ll get
A base salary, backed by the resources of a global leader. Remote flexibility, growth opportunities, and daily exposure to a high-impact, future-facing sector.
