You’ll have the opportunity to help shape where Leadsun grows next, supported by technical expertise, proven project experience and direct access to leadership.

The opportunity This is a senior, hands-on new business role. You’ll create your own pipeline and lead opportunities from first contact through specification, quotation, negotiation and secured order.

Potential opportunities include private infrastructure projects, industrial estates, logistics facilities, major developments, and partnerships with civil and electrical contractors, consultants and specifiers.

These are starting points. Working with the Business Manager, you’ll identify the strongest commercial opportunities and build repeatable pathways to new sales alongside our existing sales team.

- Strong prospecting skills and the ability to open doors without relying on supplied leads.
- Experience selling through multiple stakeholders,



including consultants, engineers, contractors, developers, asset owners or procurement teams.
- Experience securing sizeable project opportunities, ideally $250,000–$1 million or more.
- Commercial judgement around pricing, margin, forecasting and negotiation.
- Disciplined use of CRM and a willingness to learn technical products and applications.

Experience in lighting, electrical products, civil infrastructure, construction products, renewable energy or related project-sales markets would be valuable.

What success looks like Within your first 90 days, you’ll have agreed priority markets and built an active qualified pipeline with live quotations, specification opportunities or pilots.

Your first-year target is at least $2 million in additional secured orders at agreed gross margins, supported by a sustainable pipeline and repeatable customer or channel opportunities.

Why Leadsun You’ll join a small, direct and accountable team where your ideas can influence commercial direction.

We offer

- Autonomy to develop opportunities, with direct access to leadership.
- Solid technical capability and proven project experience.
- Emerging high-power solar lighting solutions.
