at  Prosolar

Prosolar, part of a well-established family business with over 30 years of industry experience, is a leading solar PV installation company based in Kenmare, County Kerry.

• Valid driver’s license.

ROLE OVERVIEW:

As a Solar Sales Consultant for the domestic market, you will be a key ambassador of our brand, responsible for bringing reliable and sustainable solar energy solutions directly to homeowners.

You will receive thorough training to understand how solar PV technology works, enabling you to guide prospective customers confidently from initial interest to completed sale. Your role will involve traveling to customers’ homes, working from your own home, and attending a weekly meeting at our Kenmare office.
