Job description

Overview

SolarTech is building a high-performance commercial sales team focused on closing large-scale solar projects across the UK.

This is not a typical sales role.
There is no salary, no hand-holding, and no ceiling.

This is a commission-only, independent contractor position for individuals who want to operate at a high level, take ownership of opportunities, and earn based on results.

If you are structured, commercially sharp, and capable of managing complex deals end-to-end, this role gives you the platform to build serious income.

Compensation

  • Commission-only (self-employed / contractor)
  • 50% of net project profit per deal
  • Realistic OTE: £80,000 – £250,000+
  • No cap on earnings

What You’ll Be Doing

You will own and manage commercial solar opportunities from first conversation through to signed contract and handover.

This includes:

  • Running structured discovery meetings with business decision-makers
  • Understanding energy usage, financial drivers, and commercial constraints
  • Qualifying opportunities properly (ownership, demand profile, decision process, timeline)
  • Positioning solutions (cash, finance, PPA) in a commercially intelligent way
  • Managing the full sales cycle: discovery → proposal → negotiation → close
  • Working with internal teams (design, finance, operations) to progress deals
  • Maintaining accurate CRM records and deal progression
  • Protecting deal margin, structure, and integrity

What Success Looks Like

  • You take ownership of your pipeline and move deals forward without being chased
  • You control conversations confidently and professionally
  • You qualify properly instead of chasing weak opportunities
  • You close profitable deals, not just volume
  • You operate with discipline, structure, and commercial awareness

What We’re Looking For

This role is not for beginners.

You should have:

  • Proven experience in B2B sales (preferably commercial, energy, property, or technical solutions)
  • Strong commercial thinking — not just “sales talk”
  • Ability to manage long and complex sales cycles
  • Confidence speaking with directors, owners, and senior decision-makers
  • High level of ownership and self-management
  • Structured approach to pipeline and deal progression

You do not need to be a solar expert — but you must be able to learn quickly and think commercially.

What You Won’t Get

To be clear:

  • No base salary
  • No guaranteed leads
  • No fixed income
  • No employee benefits

This is a performance-driven environment for people who want upside, not security.

What You Will Get

  • High-value deal opportunities
  • Strong commission structure (50% profit share)
  • Support from design, finance, and operations teams
  • A scalable system to build a serious pipeline
  • The ability to operate independently while closing real projects

Working Setup

  • Independent contractor (self-employed)
  • Remote / field-based across the UK
  • Flexible working — results matter, not hours

Apply If

You are:

  • Serious about building high income
  • Comfortable without a fixed salary
  • Able to take full ownership of your performance
  • Looking for a machine to scale, not a 9 - 5 job

Apply once. Then go straight to the hiring manager.
