    at Span.IO Chicago ****The Role****

    At Span, we are building products that enable the rapid adoption of renewable energy like home solar, batteries, and electric vehicles. The Span Smart Panel replaces the standard electrical panel to become the center for connected power in the home, providing revolutionary insights and home energy controls through the Span mobile app.

    Weve developed a breakthrough product for residential solar + storage customers, have seen strong initial market traction, and are looking to rapidly grow revenue by expanding our Sales team. Span is seeking a Regional Sales Manager to source, sell to, and grow relationships with our solar installer partners. This person will be responsible for making our customers and company successful, owning a substantial portion of Spans revenue target.

    Own the sales funnel for solar and storage installation professionals - from finding the right contacts and companies, all the way through the sales cycle of contract negotiation and ensuring successful order volume

    Build trusted, lasting partnerships with executives, key decision-makers and influencers of solar companies

    Build a pipeline through both inbound and outbound contact with customers - weve had hundreds of installers reach out to us, and this role will also entail creating a new contact with small and medium businesses that can be successful partners for Span

    Onboard signed customers to Span, ensuring that sales and operational teams are trained and effectively activated with the product

    Represent Span at events and in discussions with partners

We value open communication, teamwork, and a make-it-happen attitude - no job is too big or too small. We strive to make a change by imagining what the future could be and building a product to complete that vision.
