The opportunity

The energy market changes daily meaning that every day is a new day, following from the 2022 energy crisis, businesses need expertise now more than ever so we’re looking for an experienced energy consultant who can support customers with their flexible purchasing needs. If you’re ready to take on a challenging and rewarding role in the energy industry and work alongside an amazing team of traders and analysts, this is the perfect opportunity for you!

We’re looking for an experienced energy consultant with a vast history of managing large customer portfolios and complex accounts. Ideally you will have the ability to uncover opportunities above 1GW and manage both acquisition and renewal accounts. Experience of flexible purchasing is desired but not essential as full training is provided.

What exactly will you do?

As a Flexible Energy Consultant, you’ll engage various activities such as:

• Cold calling potential clients and explaining the benefits of NGP’s flexible purchasing solutions – we want someone who isn’t afraid to pick up the phone. This is a B2B role (Business to Business)
• Question their current procurement strategy. Determine the customer’s current purchasing strategy and find ways to improve it using in depth market analysis.
• Manage accounts and work alongside the trading team to support customers purchase decisions and monitor budget performance
• Tender preparations and supplier negotiations. You will have access to some unique products and tariffs and recommend the best solution for your customer based on their needs
• Manage client relationships. Once you have started to build your client portfolio, you will act as their single point of contact – managing their accounts and monitoring your pipeline for renewal or further business opportunities.

You will receive a thorough onboarding process, where we will give you full product and sales training – everything you need to onboard your first flexible client. After this, you’ll be equipped to develop and manage your own client portfolio, enjoying a great deal of independence in organising your time and work schedule.

What we’re looking for

• Proven sales experience as an Energy Consultant or similar
• Experience in managing customer portfolios of 1GW or more

• Ability to manage your own workload and pipeline
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, self-directed, professional environment
• Driven character, enthusiastic and passionate
• Self-motivated, with a drive and passion for success

What’s in it for you?

• Industry-leading compensation package: Negotiable salary £40,000 – £55,000 + uncapped commission with an OTE of £100,000+
• Rapidly growing user base: Work directly with some of the UK’s largest, fastest growing, and most innovative companies
• Learn from industry-leading experts: We have cultivated some of best talent in the industry, allowing you to supercharge your career progression and learn from the best minds out there
• Work-life balance: No late finishes, keep your plans with friends and family
