Solar Field Sales Representative

Overview

Lyra Leads is a new startup that aims to bring a data-driven approach to D2D canvassing. Our platform filters and scores individual properties against campaign criteria and plans optimised canvassing routes around them, giving representatives a clear starting point for each visit. The aim is to focus your time on homes with greater potential suitability.

We're recruiting Sales Representatives with previous Solar Sales experience for a campaign supporting one installation partner across Birmingham, covering Solar PV initially, with expansion to ASHPs soon. The role involves speaking with homeowners to establish interest in a data driven way and collect preliminary survey information to help the installer prepare suitable recommendations and quotations. In situations where a prospect is busy for the survey, a revisit may be booked for further follow up.

This is a self-employed, commission-only role. Commission is £250 per completed Solar PV installation and £150 per completed ASHP installation. Payment follows receipt of installer payment, normally expected around 14 days after installation.

As the company grows, more opportunities will be available in other roles (like operations) depending on what your skillsets are.
