Job Description
Job Title: Business Development Manager – Commercial Solar

Salary: £25,000 - £35,000
The Client
Our client are an energy consultancy company with a difference.

They work within the energy industry offering the very latest in renewable options from LED lighting, solar panels, EV chargers as well as other specific forms of energy reduction technology.
While our customers share the UK government’s commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, many of them are unsure how this can be achieved.

- Attend industry events, conferences, and networking functions to promote Path Energy and expand the company's presence in the market.
