INDUSTRY:

The solar industry worldwide is expected to grow by 4x from $52B in 2018 to $223B in 2026 (alliedmarketresearch.com1/2021). With incentives increasing and the cost of solar power decreasing, the solar power industry is growing rapidly. Keeping up with demand is exciting and provides immense opportunity. We are in need of good people to help communicate the benefit of solar to residential prospects on preset appointments.

AVOLTA:

Avolta, founded in 2015, has been recognized as an elite solar company known for compensation and work-life balance. In less than 6 years, we have become the 8th largest vertically integrated solar company in the US. With over $100 million in revenue in 2021 we are confident in our ability to grow in 2022.

ABOUT YOU:

You have experience prospecting in a B2C and/or B2B environment. The majority of our managers have worked in hospitality, retail, or canvassing positions.
