We are looking for a San Diego-based, commission-only Field Sales Consultant to sell utility-backed energy efficiency programs in partnership with San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E).
This is a fully on-site, field sales role. You will be visiting commercial properties, walking job sites, identifying upgrade opportunities, and selling energy efficiency improvements that are subsidized by SDG&E rebates. This role is ideal for someone who knows how to sell real operational work, not just talk about it.
What You'll Be Doing
- Perform on-site visits at commercial properties across San Diego
- Identify and sell energy efficiency upgrades, including:
1. Occupancy sensors
2. Smart thermostats
3. 2x4 LED lighting retrofits
4. Lighting controls and efficiency upgrades
- Explain SDG&E rebate programs and how they significantly reduce project costs
- Work directly with business owners, facility managers, and property managers
- Coordinate with internal operations teams to ensure projects are executed correctly
- Close deals and earn commission on completed sales
What We're Looking For
Proven field or on-site sales experience (energy, lighting, electrical, HVAC, construction, facilities, or similar)
Comfortable walking job sites and discussing installation work and equipment
Strong communication and persuasion skills
English required (Spanish is a plus, not required)
Self-motivated, disciplined, and able to work independently
Reliable transportation and ability to travel locally within San Diego
Available to work fully in the field (not remote)
What You'll Get
Uncapped commission on closed deals
Proven, in-demand offering supported by SDG&E incentives
Sales training on utility programs and upgrade offerings
Operational and technical support - you focus on selling
Opportunity to grow with a company expanding utility programs nationally
Who This Role Is Best For
Experienced commission-only sales professionals
Closers who want control over their income
Field sales reps who prefer being on-site, not behind a desk
Anyone confident selling tangible upgrades with immediate customer savings
Job Type: Contract
Pay: $70,000.00 - $100,000.00 per year
Benefits:
- Flexible schedule
- Opportunities for advancement
- Professional development assistance
