Job Description

Residential Sales Representative - Solar & Backup Power

Location: Parksville, BC

About the Role

Osprey Electric is one of Vancouver Island's most respected electrical contractors, and our Solar Division is growing fast. We're seeking a motivated, people-first Sales Representative who is ready to take the next step in their sales career.

You might be early in your journey - maybe one or two roles in - but you know you love the hunt, the chase, and the satisfaction of earning a customer's trust. This is your chance to work with a top-tier team, learn a high-growth industry, and build a future in renewable energy.

What You'll Do

  • Prospect for new residential customers through cold calling, canvassing, social media, and local events such as trade shows and conferences
  • Leverage warm lead opportunities through Osprey’s current existing lead generation methods
  • Connect with homeowners to understand their project goals, energy needs and guide them toward optimal solutions
  • Collaborate with our engineering and project teams to design custom solar, energy storage and generator systems
  • Present straightforward proposals and explain the long-term benefits of switching to solar and backup power (full training provided)
  • Use CRM tools to track your leads, tasks, and follow-ups
  • Hit monthly goals for outreach, appointments, and conversions
  • Offer solar maintenance subscription services to customers post-sale
  • Represent the Osprey brand with professionalism and a people-first mindset

    What We Offer

    • Competitive base salary + commission with performance incentives
    • Full product and sales training with mentoring from experienced team members
    • Extended health benefits and matching RRSP contributions
    • A team-first culture built on respect, support, and pride in craftsmanship
    • An opportunity to grow into a long-term career in the renewable energy space
