The Role
Title: Solar Energy Consultant
Type: Full time | Permanent
Location: Comox Valley, Campbell River, or Parksville/Qualicum, BC
Compensation: $70,000 base salary growing to $80,000 through two performance milestones, plus quarterly commission
This is a pure sales role. You are in the field every day, generating your own leads, conducting in-home consultations, and closing solar and battery storage contracts. There is no desk. There is no management track. There is a clear and transparent path to earning more by developing your skills and hitting your numbers.
Your Path to $80,000
$70,000. A strong, proven salesperson with no direct solar experience but a demonstrated track record in outbound sales. You know how to hunt, close, and work without hand holding.
Pass your NABCEP PV Associate certification and your base increases by $5,000. Hit your quarterly sales target of 15 sales and your base increases by $5,000. Achieve both and your base reaches the $80,000 ceiling.
What You Will Do In the Field
- Generate your own leads through door to door canvassing and community networking. This is a hunter role and proactive outreach is the foundation.
- Follow up on leads provided by Aurum Solar Ltd.
- Conduct thorough in home solar consultations, system design discussions, and proposals.
- Create basic solar and battery system designs and prepare quotes using our pricing tools.
- Close residential solar and battery storage contracts
- Gather necessary documentation from customers including utility account information and building details to support accurate system design and proposal preparation.
- Perform site walk-arounds and visual inspections including roof and electrical panel documentation, with safe use of a ladder and measuring tape as required.
- Represent Aurum Solar Ltd.'s brand with professionalism and integrity in every customer interaction.
- Hit and exceed monthly and annual sales targets.
- Ensure a clean handover of all documentation and project details to the operations team.
Compensation and Growth
Base Salary: $70,000 starting, growing to $80,000 through two performance milestones
Commission: A competitive quarterly commission structure calculated on watts sold. The more you close, the more you earn. Full details are shared with candidates who progress past the NDA stage.
Why This Opportunity Is Different
Most solar sales roles offer you a commission structure and wish you luck.
This role offers a base that respects where you are starting from, a commission structure that rewards your output, and a clear and transparent path to earning more by developing your skills and hitting your numbers.
You are not employee number 847.
You are joining a small, tight-knit sales team at a company that is growing fast and values the people who show up and perform.
