Senior Sales Manager - EV Charging Solutions
Job description
An international energy technology company is accelerating its commercial expansion across the UK and Ireland and is hiring a Senior Sales Manager to take full ownership of direct revenue growth in these two core markets. This is a senior, quota-carrying role with end-to-end responsibility for winning and closing complex B2B infrastructure projects across EV charging and adjacent energy solutions.
The role is explicitly execution-focused. You are expected to open doors, build a pipeline, negotiate contracts, and close material deals with limited support infrastructure. This is not a channel-only or account-maintenance role. Commercial ownership, pace, and deal discipline are central.
Key Responsibilities
Own the full sales cycle across the UK and Ireland, from market entry and opportunity creation through negotiation, contracting, and close, with clear accountability for revenue delivery
Build and convert a pipeline of large-scale B2B opportunities with CPOs, fleet operators, utilities, property groups, infrastructure developers, and strategic partners
Lead senior-level commercial discussions, pricing strategy, and contract negotiations, managing long and technically complex sales cycles
Develop and execute a UK & Ireland go-to-market strategy aligned with European growth priorities, including target accounts, vertical focus, and deal sequencing
Maintain rigorous pipeline management, forecasting accuracy, and KPI ownership, with clear visibility on conversion risk and timing
Work closely with engineering, delivery, and operations teams to ensure commercial commitments are executable and projects transition cleanly from order to delivery
Continuously assess market structure, regulatory dynamics, competitor positioning, and customer buying behavior in the UK and Irish EV infrastructure markets
Requirements
4–7+ years of B2B sales experience in EV charging, energy infrastructure, power equipment, industrial technology, or closely related sectors
Demonstrated track record of closing high-value, project-based deals in the UK market; Ireland exposure strongly preferred
Proven ability to operate autonomously in a senior, build-and-close role without heavy internal sales support
Commercially assertive, outcome-driven sales style with comfort pushing senior stakeholders, managing objections, and driving decisions to close
Strong capability to sell technically complex solutions, translating engineering and delivery constraints into clear commercial value propositions
High ownership of numbers, pipeline, and forecast, with disciplined sales hygiene and data-driven decision-making
Willingness to travel regularly across the UK and Ireland, with occasional European travel as required
Understanding of EV charging infrastructure, grid constraints, and large-site deployment dynamics is a strong advantage
Location & Contract
UK-based preferred (London or major regional hub); flexibility for the right profile
Employment, consultancy, or EOR structures available depending on seniority and setup
