Ready to lead one of the fastest-growing teams in Australia's booming home electrification industry?
At Smart Energy, we're helping thousands of Australian homeowners take control of their energy future through solar, batteries, hot water heat pumps, EV charging, virtual power plants, and smart home energy solutions.
What started as two mates in a Byron Bay warehouse has grown into one of Australia's most successful start-ups, with 15 offices nationwide and a reputation for delivering exceptional customer outcomes.
Now backed by industry leader Rinnai Australia, Smart Energy is uniquely positioned to lead Australia's transition towards fully electrified homes. Together, we're making sustainable living more accessible than ever while continuing to expand at an incredible pace.
Due to continued growth, we're looking for an ambitious Sales Manager to establish, grow, and lead a brand new door to door lead generation team in Melbourne.
This isn't a role where you inherit a team and maintain the status quo.
This is your opportunity to build something exceptional.
As the Melbourne Sales Manager, you'll be responsible for building, developing, and leading a high-performing sales team while driving revenue growth across residential home electrification solutions.
You'll work closely with senior leadership to recruit, coach, and develop your team while also leading from the front and setting the standard for performance.
For the right person, this is a genuine opportunity to create your own success story within a rapidly expanding national business.
- Recruit, build, and develop a brand-new door to door sales team from the ground up
- Lead, coach, and motivate your team to consistently exceed targets
- Drive sales growth across solar, battery storage, and home electrification products
- Conduct in-home appointments and convert opportunities into sales
- Develop and execute local growth strategies
- Monitor team performance and optimise sales processes
- Create a positive, high-performance culture focused on development and accountability
- Work closely with Recruitment, HR, and Senior Leadership to support team growth and retention
- Identify new market opportunities and strengthen customer relationships throughout the Melbourne region
You'll be immersed in our proven sales process and receive hands-on training from our relationship management leadership team.
This is a hybrid leadership role, meaning you'll spend time:
Learning Smart Energy’s sales methodology
Running face-to-face home electrification appointments with homeowners
Building your own sales pipeline
Interviewing and onboarding and training new sales team members
Developing the foundations of your future team
By leading from the front, you'll gain the credibility and experience needed to coach your team to success.
You might be the perfect fit if you:
- Have experience leading sales teams and delivering strong results
- Are passionate about coaching, mentoring, and developing people
- Thrive in fast-paced, target-driven environments
- Have a proven track record of exceeding sales targets
- Love building teams, culture, and momentum
- Want to be part of an industry making a genuine impact
- Competitive base salary
- Uncapped commission structure
- Performance bonuses
- Genuine career progression opportunities
- Full leadership training and ongoing support
- National leadership pathways as the business continues to expand
- Be part of one of Australia's fastest-growing renewable energy companies
- Work with ambitious, driven people who love winning
- Friday celebrations, team events, national competitions, and an incredible culture
We're not just selling solar.
We're building the future of home electrification in Australia.
Every day, our team helps homeowners save money, reduce their environmental impact, and take control of their energy future.
If you're looking for a leadership opportunity where your effort directly impacts your income, career growth, and the success of an entire team - we'd love to hear from you.
