Lead the North American Energy Storage Business for a Global Clean Energy Manufacturer
This is an opportunity to lead one of the most strategically important commercial organizations in North America's rapidly expanding battery energy storage market.
We've partnered closely with this business over the past several years, supporting the growth of its Energy Storage division and working alongside its leadership team on several key commercial appointments.
As demand for utility-scale storage, data center infrastructure and microgrid solutions continues to accelerate, the business is now looking to appoint a North America Sales Director to lead its commercial strategy across the United States and Canada.
Our client is one of the world's largest clean energy manufacturers, with an established global presence and a rapidly expanding North American Energy Storage business.
Having invested significantly in U.S. manufacturing, the company is exceptionally well positioned to support customers looking for reliable domestic supply, reduced lead times, and long-term manufacturing capability. Combined with an established global manufacturing network and strong financial backing, the business is continuing to invest heavily in both technology and commercial growth.
Today, they work directly with many of North America's largest utilities, EPCs, IPPs, developers, distributors and hyperscale data center operators, delivering energy storage solutions for some of the region's most critical infrastructure projects.
The Opportunity
This is far more than a traditional sales leadership role. You'll be responsible for developing and executing the North American commercial strategy while leading a growing team responsible for utility-scale battery storage, data centers, microgrids and commercial energy customers across the United States and Canada.
Your responsibilities will include:
Developing and executing the North American sales strategy.
Leading, mentoring and growing the regional sales organization.
Supporting Sales Managers on strategic customer opportunities.
Negotiating major commercial agreements and long-term supply contracts.
Working closely with engineering, proposals, commercial and executive leadership teams.
Building executive-level relationships with utilities, developers, EPCs, IPPs, distributors and strategic customers across North America.
Why This Role Stands Out
Executive Leadership
Lead the entire North American Energy Storage commercial organization while helping shape the long-term growth strategy of the business.
U.S. Manufacturing Advantage
Represent a company with significant U.S. manufacturing capability, providing customers with greater supply chain resilience, domestic production capacity and long-term confidence.
Established Global Platform
Join a financially strong global manufacturer with proven products, established customer relationships and significant investment behind its North American expansion.
Strategic Customer Portfolio
Work with many of the largest utilities, developers, EPCs, IPPs, distributors and data center customers across the United States and Canada.
Build Something Lasting
Play a key role in developing the commercial organization, mentoring future sales leaders and helping establish one of the industry's leading Energy Storage businesses.
What We're Looking For
We're interested in speaking with experienced commercial leaders who can demonstrate:
10+ years' experience selling Battery Energy Storage, Solar or related energy technologies.
Experience leading national or regional sales organizations.
A strong understanding of utility-scale energy storage, data centers, microgrids and commercial energy markets.
Proven success developing strategic sales plans and leading high-performing commercial teams.
Experience managing complex, long-cycle infrastructure sales with utilities, EPCs, IPPs, developers and major strategic customers.
Strong commercial negotiation skills and the ability to build executive-level customer relationships.
Willingness to travel throughout North America as required.
This is a rare opportunity to join a globally established manufacturer at a pivotal stage of its North American Energy Storage growth.
You'll inherit a respected brand, an expanding product portfolio, significant U.S. manufacturing capability and the opportunity to lead a commercial organization serving some of the largest energy infrastructure customers in the market.
For experienced sales leaders looking to shape strategy, build outstanding teams and play a defining role in the next phase of North America's energy transition, opportunities like this are exceptionally rare.
