Sales & Business Development Lead - Solar Storage Systems (Abuja)

Job Responsibilities

Develop the Abuja market for our solar product line — PV modules, hybrid inverters, lithium battery storage and distribution accessories. Build business with end users, distributors, EPC integrators and commercial & industrial customers.

Own the commercial cycle: prepare quotations, configure the PV and storage system, negotiate commercial terms, agree contracts and follow the order through to completion.

Collect the actual load profile and grid conditions on site, and produce a system configuration that fits local grid reality.

Follow delivery and arrival confirmation, drive collection of payment, maintain existing accounts, and generate repeat business and referrals.

Track competitor pricing, policy changes and channel movements in the local market, and report back on a regular basis.

Work with the technical and after-sales team to coordinate on-site installation guidance, resolve faults and answer pre-sales technical questions.

Deliver the sales target set by the company, and keep proper records of customer accounts, sales reports and visit logs.

Requirements

A Bachelor's degree (B.Sc, B.A or B.Eng) with Second Class Upper or above. HND and OND are not accepted for this role.

You must have personally closed at least one deal above ₦1 million. State the amount and the customer in your cover letter.

Experience in solar storage, power equipment or engineering building materials sales. Understanding of off-grid and hybrid storage systems is a strong advantage.

Familiarity with the Nigerian market is preferred.

Able to read a basic PV system configuration, inverter and battery specifications, and a simple single-line diagram.

Able to negotiate commercial terms independently.

Resilient under pressure, and comfortable working to a monthly revenue target.

Strong sense of integrity, with real discipline on collecting payment.

Existing local channel relationships are an advantage.

Based in Abuja, FCT, and able to visit customers and sites daily.

Fluent English. Hausa will be tested during the interview.

Compensation

Base salary: ₦450,000 per month, inclusive of transport allowance.

Uncapped commission on collected revenue. The rate rises with monthly volume — the more systems you close and collect, the higher the percentage applies to the whole month.

Commission is paid in three tranches: on closing, on customer payment, and after three months with no fault or complaint.

Quarterly performance bonus.

Probation: base at 80% for the first three months. Commission is paid in full from day one.

The base salary keeps you standing. The commission is where you make your money — and there is no ceiling on it.

Additional Information

Location: Abuja, FCT. Showroom at No. 2 Batagarawa Street, NAF Valley Estate, Asokoro.

Reporting: Directly to the Managing Director.

Team: No team at the start. You build the region first; a team follows once it is proven.

Pricing: Package pricing is set by the company. You will be expected to hold the price and defend the margin.

Interview process: (1) short phone screening, (2) in-person business interview of about 45 minutes plus a 20-minute case exercise at our showroom, (3) reference verification before any offer.

We are an equal opportunity employer. Female candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
