• Monitoring market trends, competitor activity and emerging technologies to identify future growth opportunities.

• Strong commercial awareness and strategic thinking.
• Experience managing sales pipelines and CRM systems.
• A proactive, self-motivated approach with a passion for exceeding targets.
• Knowledge of renewable technologies including heat pumps, solar PV, battery storage or wider decarbonisation solutions would be highly desirable.
