Britwind operates as a subsidiary of the larger “New Ventures” group which furthers environmental aims through an array of various innovative products. New Ventures is itself a sister company of Ecotricity, the world’s first 100% renewable energy company. Britwind’s turbines are in the “small wind” category, providing clean, green renewable electricity for families, small businesses and community groups around the world. At the heart of this business is a team of fantastic people - energetic and passionate about what we do, who work together to make things better and who are keen to ’shake things up a bit’ by challenging what others see as “conventional wisdom”. The holder will be responsible for furthering the outward image of the business, developing sales channels, generating leads and closing deals. Selling primarily through a network of resellers and installers as well as direct to end-users, the holder of this role will be expected to create and maintain a constant pipeline of opportunities using an appropriate CRM system. Management of existing installer relationships and cultivation of new ones will likely be the primary sales route. In addition to direct turbine sales, the holder will be expected to innovate alternative revenue streams, such as Power Purchase Agreements, whilst also devising routes to installation for customers who lack the capital funds to invest directly. The holder will be responsible for devising and implementing a sales strategy which directly guides the business towards its mission of reducing fossil fuel usage through increasing renewable energy capacity.
