Sales Representative / Business Development Manager (BDM) – Solar & Battery Energy Storage (BESS) Confidential Search | Sydney-based (open to East Coast) | Attractive Base + Car Allowance + Commission
About Our Client
Our client is a fast-growing solar & battery energy storage (BESS) rental business leading the shift away from diesel toward cleaner, quieter, smarter temporary power. With legal, finance and operations now firmly established, the business is entering a pure growth phase — and this role is central to that next chapter.
You'll be working with a superior product in a genuinely underserved market, backed by a lean, high-performing sales team and a business that's ready to back you to win.
The Opportunity
We're looking for a driven Sales Representative / Business Development Manager (BDM) to grow our client's solar & battery energy storage (BESS) rental business across construction, mining, civil infrastructure, rail, tunnelling, agriculture and large-scale developments. You'll take ownership of a defined patch, build your own pipeline, and run the full sales cycle — from lead generation through to quote, close and account management.
This is a hunter's role first and foremost. You'll be given the tools, product and support to go and win business — not sit and wait for it.
What You'll Do
- Proactively generate leads and build a strong pipeline across major projects nationally (with a focus on the East Coast and WA)
- Engage directly with Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors and major developers — including builders working on large commercial and mining developments,
and businesses constructing data centres
- Conduct site visits, assess temporary power needs and identify off-grid solar & battery opportunities, particularly within the mining sector
- Prepare and present simple, fast-turnaround quotes and proposals (with engineering support available when solutions get technical)
- Win contracts and manage the deployment and account relationship through the rental period
- Maintain accurate pipeline and forecasting records in CRM
- Work closely with a small, capable team — including sales support and fellow BDMs — with direct access to leadership for commercial decisions
Who We're Looking For
- Solid experience in a proactive, hunter-style sales or BDM role — ideally selling into construction, mining, civil, equipment hire, temporary power, generators or a related industrial/technical space
- A genuine track record of self-generating leads and building relationships from the ground up, not just managing an inherited book
- Confident presenting to and negotiating with senior stakeholders at Tier 1/Tier 2 contractors and major developers
- Comfortable engaging technically enough to represent the product credibly,
with engineering support on hand for complex solutions
- Self-starter who thrives on autonomy, targets and building something rather than maintaining it
- Based on the East Coast preferred, though open to the right candidate elsewhere in Australia
- Valid driver's licence and willingness to travel to project sites
Bonus if you have:
- Experience in power generation, hybrid systems or renewable energy
- Existing relationships with Tier 1/Tier 2 contractors or major developers
What's on Offer
- Strong base + $15,000 car allowance + super, plus a favourable commission structure
- Corporate card, fuel, e-tag, parking and flights/accommodation covered when travelling
- A flexible working structure — office as a base when needed, with the autonomy to plan your own week around client meetings
- Hands-on, present leadership with a flat, non-micromanaged culture
- Genuine support: straightforward CRM, fast quote turnaround, marketing collateral and an engineering team ready to help you close
- The chance to build your own patch and career in a business that's scaling fast, with a product that's outperforming the competition
Characteristics We're After
Confident. Strong communicator. Driven. Influential and persuasive. A natural problem solver who backs themselves to run their own race.
