We are partnering with a rapidly scaling, investor-backed energy technology company operating at the intersection of power infrastructure, efficiency, and clean energy. The business develops advanced solutions that help large, energy-intensive customers improve how power is generated, managed, and optimized across their assets.

With strong commercial momentum and a growing customer base, the company is now expanding its commercial team to support increased demand across North America, with longer-term global growth ambitions. This is an opportunity to join a high-caliber organization at a pivotal stage, where commercial leadership, autonomy, and execution will have a direct impact on revenue growth and market positioning. 

The Sales Manager will be responsible for developing and managing strategic customer relationships across data centers, utilities, independent power producers, and distributed energy markets. This is a hunter-led role with full ownership of pipeline development, deal execution, and long-term account growth.

You will sell solutions, not products, working closely with technical, engineering, and leadership teams to structure commercial offerings that integrate power generation, energy recovery, and infrastructure optimization.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and execute a commercial strategy targeting data centers, utilities, IPPs, and distributed energy customers
  • Originate, qualify, and close new opportunities from day one
  • Manage complex, consultative sales cycles involving technical and financial stakeholders
  • Position integrated solutions across power generation, cooling, and energy-as-a-service models
  • Develop long-term customer relationships and identify expansion opportunities within existing accounts
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, project, and executive teams to deliver tailored solutions
  • Maintain strong market awareness across clean energy, power infrastructure, and emerging demand drivers 

Required Experience & Skills

Must Have

  • 8–10+ years of relevant commercial experience
  • Background in data centers, utilities, IPPs, or distributed energy sales
  • Proven experience selling solutions rather than standalone products
  • Strong understanding of power generation, clean energy, or electric infrastructure
  • Commercial acumen across integrated power, cooling, and energy-as-a-service models
  • Demonstrated hunter mentality with the ability to build pipeline independently

Nice to Have

  • Commercial & Industrial (C&I) energy experience
  • Behind-the-meter or Energy-as-a-Service exposure
  • Existing relationships within data centers, utilities, or power developers
  • Light exposure to project development or early-stage infrastructure projects
