  5. Collaborate cross-functionally with technical, supply chain, and delivery teams to align project solutions and resolve obstacles throughout project rollout; adapt to a cross-cultural working environment and be based in Canada for on-site business operations.
  6. Collect regional market intelligence and competitor dynamics; formulate localized sales strategies; summarize replicable market development cases.

Job Requirements:

  2. Professional Experience: Minimum 8 years of sales experience in the PV/new energy industry, including at least 3 years of sales management experience covering the Canadian market; candidates with existing local key account resources (utilities, EPCs, distributors, commercial rooftop project owners) preferred.
  3. Language & Technical Competency: Proficient English for daily work; fluency in French is a plus, particularly for the Quebec market. Well-versed in Canadian solar policies, CSA/UL/cUL certifications, provincial grid connection processes, and net metering/micro-generation regulations.
  4. Personal Competencies: Strong cross-cultural adaptability; rigorous and detail-oriented work style; long-term account management mindset; willingness to be based in Canada on a long-term basis and to travel frequently within Canada.
