About the Role
We are looking for an ambitious, commercially driven Sales Manager to help drive our go-to-market for power conversion and energy storage technology. You will support sales across two complementary fronts: cross-selling our core technology to the world's leading energy storage players and hyperscalers, and selling our own complete BESS systems to commercial and industrial (C&I) customers.
This is a high-impact role with the rare opportunity to grow with a fast-scaling sales team. We have a flagship reference - a signed lead contract with one of the largest global BESS players - to use as a springboard to accelerate our Go-to-Market. Reporting to the Head of Sales, you will work hand in hand with engineering, product, and marketing to translate our technology leadership into commercial wins.
This role is based at our Zagreb, Croatia OR Witney, Oxfordshire site, with regular international travel expected.

Experience selling complex technology or systems to business customers, ideally in BESS, utility, or C&I segments.

Solid commercial acumen, with experience in contract negotiation and deal structuring.
-
Excellent communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills.

A proactive, hands-on approach and the ability to manage the full sales cycle in a fast-moving, scale-up environment.

Proficient with AI tools and ready to apply them to speed up any task.
-
Willingness to travel internationally as required.
Considered as an Advantage

Existing network among global BESS OEMs, hyperscalers, IPPs, and C&I players.
