  • Identify new business opportunities and ensure a consistent sales pipeline.
  • Achieve monthly, quarterly, and annual sales targets.

2. B2B Sales & Vendor Network Building

  • Build and manage relationships with vendors, distributors, electrical contractors, and dealers.
  • Negotiate and close bulk orders for panels and inverters.
  • Develop and manage a network of authorized sales personnel/agents who can sell products under Sumraj Urja’s banner.

3. Leadership & Team Development

  • Mentor and guide junior sales executives and support staff.
  • Conduct training sessions for newly appointed authorized sales agents.
  • Motivate the sales team towards achieving group targets and maintaining client satisfaction.

4. Marketing & Promotion

  • Plan and execute local marketing initiatives (print, digital, on-ground campaigns).
  • Work with management to design sales promotion schemes and offers.

5. Reporting & Strategy

  • Prepare sales reports, forecasts, and market analysis for management review.
  • Provide strategic inputs on pricing, product positioning, and competitor activity.

  • Proven record of achieving or exceeding sales targets.
  • Strong leadership & team management skills.
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and relationship-building abilities.
  • Willingness to travel frequently for sales meetings and vendor development.
  • Graduate degree preferred (MBA/Marketing/Energy background is a plus).

What We Offer:

  • Opportunity to work with India’s leading solar brand (Waaree Energies).
  • Leadership role with scope for career growth.
  • Hands-on exposure to the fast-growing solar industry and government subsidy projects.
