Technical Boiler Sales Advisor
(Future Sales Manager Opportunity)
· £34,000 basic salary with realistic OTE of £52,000+

A secure basic salary with genuine earning potential
O’Neil Gas is looking for an ambitious and customer-focused Technical Boiler Sales Advisor to take ownership of our domestic boiler sales process and help develop one of the fastest-growing areas of our business.
The role offers a strong guaranteed basic salary of £34,000, giving you financial security from day one, together with a realistic opportunity to increase your total earnings to £52,000 and beyond through strong sales performance.
This is not a role based on a low salary and unrealistic commission targets. You will receive a solid basic salary, a bonus for every boiler you sell and access to a large, consistent supply of genuine customer enquiries.
The better you perform, the greater your earning potential becomes.
A commission structure that rewards performance
Our commission scheme operates through a clear tiered structure.
You will receive a set bonus payment for every boiler sale you complete. As your sales performance increases, you progress through the commission tiers and earn a higher bonus amount for each boiler sold.
This means that strong performance is rewarded in two ways:
· You earn commission on every completed boiler sale.
· As you sell more boilers, your commission payment per sale increases.
The structure is designed to reward consistency, ambition and strong customer service. Someone who performs well will have a genuine opportunity to move through the tiers and significantly increase their earnings.
Your success will be directly recognised and rewarded.
All sales leads are provided
You will not be expected to spend your time cold calling, prospecting or trying to generate your own appointments.
All sales leads are provided by the company.
O’Neil Gas has been established for 31 years and is one of the best-known heating businesses in central and southwest of Scotland. Our reputation, existing customer base and investment in professional marketing generate a strong and consistent flow of boiler enquiries. We have mature professional pipeline of leads set up that includes software such as Bigin & Hubspot.
We have an experienced marketing team that actively promotes the company across digital advertising, online search, customer campaigns and other channels.
There are plenty of opportunities available for the right salesperson. Your focus will be on responding quickly, building trust, recommending the right heating solution and converting genuine enquiries into sales.
Join an established family business that is investing in growth
O’Neil Gas is a family-owned company that has been trading successfully for 31 years.
Today, the business:
· Employs 22 people.
· Generates annual turnover of approximately £2.5 million.
· Continues to grow year after year.
· Has an established and respected name throughout Ayrshire and the central belt of Scotland.
· Has a substantial existing customer base, currently carrying out 14,000 jobs per year
· Invests heavily in marketing and lead generation.
· Is experiencing particularly strong growth within its domestic boiler installation division.
We combine the friendly, supportive and close-knit culture of a family business with the stability, resources and career opportunities of a successful and growing company.
Our domestic boiler sales division has become one of the fastest-growing areas of the business, and we are now looking for the right person to help us build on that success.
More than another sales position
This is not simply a role where you will be handed a target and left to get on with it.
You will take ownership of the domestic boiler sales journey, work closely with an experienced operational and engineering team, and have the opportunity to influence how our sales department develops.
You will be joining a successful business with a strong reputation, an excellent marketing operation and a steady supply of qualified customer opportunities.
For the right person, the role offers a clear career pathway towards becoming our future Sales Manager, with the potential to help build and eventually lead a larger sales team as the company continues to expand.
Who could this opportunity suit?
This role could be an excellent next step for:
· An experienced gas engineer who understands heating systems and would like to move away from working on the tools into a customer-facing sales career.
· A gas engineer who enjoys advising customers, designing heating solutions and explaining technical options.
· An existing boiler, heating or plumbing sales representative looking for greater responsibility and progression.
· A sales manager from the boiler, heating, plumbing, merchant, renewable energy or home-improvement sectors.
· A strong consultative salesperson who can quickly develop the necessary technical and product knowledge.
Previous experience in the gas, heating or boiler sector would be highly advantageous.
However, we would consider candidates with strong sales ability, the right attitude and a genuine desire to develop a long-term career with the company.

Your responsibilities will include:
· Responding to company-generated boiler sales enquiries.

· Following up enquiries consistently and professionally.
· Converting qualified customer enquiries into sales.

· Developing strong customer relationships and generating recommendations and referrals.
· Identifying opportunities to improve our sales systems, quotation process and customer journey.

· Helping develop the sales department as boiler installation volumes continue to increase.
We are looking for someone who:
· Has experience in technical, consultative or solution-based sales.
· Can quickly build trust and communicate confidently with homeowners.
· Is commercially driven but always puts the customer’s needs first.
· Can explain technical information in a way that customers understand.
· Is comfortable attending appointments and advising customers in their homes.
· Has strong quotation, negotiation, follow-up and closing skills.
· Is organised and capable of managing multiple enquiries and opportunities.
· Responds quickly and professionally to new sales leads.
· Takes personal responsibility for sales performance and customer satisfaction.
· Is motivated by the opportunity to progress through a rewarding commission structure.
· Wants to contribute ideas rather than simply follow an existing process.
· Is ambitious and interested in progressing into a Sales Manager position.
· Holds a full UK driving licence.
Experience in gas boilers, heating, plumbing, renewables, construction, property services or home improvements would be advantageous.
What we offer:
· £34,000 guaranteed basic salary.
· Realistic total earnings of £52,000+.

Flexible paid holidays
The role includes 29 days of paid holiday allowance, with a flexible approach to when holidays can be taken.
We understand that people have different family commitments and personal circumstances. Wherever operationally possible, we aim to give employees flexibility and choice when arranging their annual leave.
This reflects the supportive culture of a family-run business where employees are treated as individuals rather than numbers.
Why join O’Neil Gas?
For 31 years, O’Neil Gas has built its reputation through quality workmanship, honest advice and dependable customer service.
Although we have grown into a £2.5 million business employing 22 people, we have retained the personal and supportive culture of a family-run company.
Our employees are known as individuals, good ideas can be acted upon quickly, and strong performance is noticed and rewarded.
You will have the security of a £34,000 basic salary, while our tiered commission structure gives you a genuine opportunity to increase your earnings as your performance develops.
You will not have to worry about finding your own leads. Our established reputation, large customer base and experienced marketing team generate a steady supply of genuine boiler enquiries.
This allows you to concentrate on what you do best: advising customers, providing the right heating solution and converting opportunities into sales.
The successful candidate will be joining at an important stage in our development. Our boiler installation division is growing quickly, and this person will have the opportunity to become a central part of that growth.
For the right individual, this could develop from a successful technical sales position into a long-term leadership role, with responsibility for building and managing a larger sales operation.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants more than simply another sales job.
You will receive a secure basic salary, plenty of sales opportunities, a commission structure that increasingly rewards strong performance and a genuine chance to progress into management.
Apply today to join O’Neil Gas and help lead the continued growth of our domestic boiler sales division.
