Technical Sales Manager (Solar PV)

Location: Sea Point/Johannesburg

Salary: Market related

Turn your solar experience into revenue, not just quotes. This is a field-based role where you build relationships, solve real system problems, and close deals.

Is this you?

You’re equal parts problem-solver and deal-maker. You enjoy being out in the field, speaking to clients, unpacking their needs and translating technical detail into clear, workable solutions. You’re organised, driven by results, and take pride in delivering a seamless customer experience from first conversation to final installation.

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

You’ll be the face of the business across the Western Cape and coastal regions – growing your network, unlocking new opportunities and strengthening existing partnerships. From advising on PV systems and preparing tailored quotes to negotiating deals and closing contracts, you’ll own the full sales cycle. You’ll also run product training sessions, support internal teams with technical insights, and stay ahead of industry trends to ensure clients always get the best-fit solution.

Where you’ll be doing it

You’ll join a globally established solar solutions provider with a strong reputation for quality, reliability and technical excellence. Known for delivering complete photovoltaic systems and trusted by professionals worldwide, the business combines deep industry expertise with a collaborative, forward-thinking culture and a clear focus on sustainable growth in emerging markets.

What you’ll need

A diploma or degree in Business, Sales, Electrical Engineering or similar, along with at least 5 years’ experience in the solar PV, electrical or renewable energy space. You’ll bring solid knowledge of PV components, experience working with ERP/CRM systems, and the ability to manage both customers and internal stakeholders effectively. Strong communication skills, attention to detail, and a willingness to travel are key.

What you’ll get

A dynamic, customer-facing role in a rapidly growing sector, where your input directly influences success. Expect a supportive team environment, exposure to cutting-edge technology, regional travel and a market-related salary.
