Kembla is a growing, award-winning renewable energy business specialising in solar PV and energy solutions for domestic, commercial and public sector customers. As demand for renewable energy continues to grow, we are expanding our sales team and looking for an ambitious Sales Executive to join the business.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to build a successful career in sales within one of the UK’s fastest-growing sectors. Previous sales experience would be beneficial, but it is not essential, as full training, support and mentoring will be provided for the right candidate.
We are looking for someone with the right attitude, energy and drive. You may already have some experience in sales, customer service, lead generation, construction, renewables, electrical work or business development — or you may simply be looking for an opportunity to start a career in a growing industry with excellent earning potential.
About the role
As a Sales Executive, you will support Kembla’s sales growth by identifying new opportunities, speaking with potential customers, following up enquiries and helping customers understand the benefits of solar and renewable energy solutions.
You will receive training in solar PV, energy savings, customer engagement, sales processes, CRM systems and the wider renewables market. Over time, you will develop the confidence and knowledge to generate leads, build relationships, attend customer meetings and support the business in securing new projects.
This is a development role with genuine career progression opportunities as Kembla continues to grow.
Key responsibilities
You will support the sales team by:
- Contacting potential customers and introducing Kembla’s solar and renewable energy solutions.
- Following up inbound enquiries and helping qualify new sales opportunities.
- Supporting outbound lead generation activity across domestic, commercial and public sector markets.
- Building relationships with customers and understanding their energy needs.
- Helping customers understand the benefits of solar PV, battery storage and renewable energy solutions.
- Arranging meetings, surveys or follow-up calls for the wider sales team.
- Supporting the preparation of quotations, proposals and customer information.
- Maintaining accurate records within the CRM system.
- Researching potential customers, target sectors and new business opportunities.
- Working closely with the sales, marketing and operations teams to help convert leads into successful projects.
- Learning how to manage the full sales journey from initial enquiry through to handover.
- Representing Kembla professionally in all customer communication.
What we are looking for
We are looking for someone who is motivated, confident and keen to learn. You do not need to have direct experience in solar or renewables, but you must be willing to develop your knowledge and take ownership of your own progression.
The ideal candidate will have:
- A positive, ambitious and proactive attitude.
- Strong communication skills and confidence speaking with customers.
- A genuine interest in renewable energy, sustainability, sales or business development.
- The ability to build rapport and develop strong relationships.
- Good organisation and follow-up skills.
- A willingness to learn technical information and explain it clearly to customers.
- Confidence using Microsoft Office and the ability to learn CRM systems.
- A self-motivated approach with a desire to achieve targets.
- Resilience, enthusiasm and a strong work ethic.
- A professional approach to customers, colleagues and partners.
- A full UK driving licence, or willingness to travel when required.
Beneficial experience
The following would be helpful but are not essential:
- Previous experience in sales, telesales, lead generation or customer service.
- Experience in solar PV, renewable energy, electrical work or construction.
- Experience working in a target-driven environment.
- Experience using CRM systems.
- Knowledge of domestic or commercial energy solutions.
- Experience speaking with homeowners, business owners or decision-makers.
Full training can be provided for the right person, so attitude and potential are more important than previous experience.
What we offer
- Full training in solar, renewables, sales processes and customer engagement.
- Genuine career progression as Kembla continues to grow.
- The opportunity to work in a fast-growing and future-focused industry.
- Support from experienced sales, technical and operational teams.
- A varied role with a mix of office, customer and site-based activity.
- Employee benefits package.
- The chance to be part of an award-winning renewable energy business.
- A supportive team culture where hard work, development and ambition are recognised.
- Long-term opportunities to progress into senior sales, business development or account management roles.
About you
This role would suit someone who is hungry to learn, confident speaking with people and motivated by the opportunity to build a successful career.
You may be at the start of your career, looking to move into sales, or looking for a new challenge in a growing sector. You do not need to know everything about solar or renewables from day one — we can teach you that.
What we need is someone with drive, professionalism, energy and the determination to succeed.
If you are ambitious, willing to learn and excited by the opportunity to work in renewable energy, we would like to hear from you.
