Associate Solar Sales Consultant (Pittsburgh, PA)
About the role
with paragraphs. - What You Will Do: responsibilities list. - What We Are Looking For: requirements/qualifications/skills. Could split into Requirements (coachability, experience, community connections, self motivation, consultative approach) and maybe Skills (consultative approach, relationship building). But we need to follow instruction: use headings for those categories if content exists. We can combine. - What Success Looks Like In Year One: could be part of Responsibilities or maybe "Expectations". Not a standard heading; maybe we can include under Responsibilities or a separate section like "Performance Expectations". But only allowed headings are the listed ones. So we might incorporate into Responsibilities or Requirements. - Who Thrives: maybe part of About the role. - What We Offer: benefits, pay, etc. This includes base pay, commissions, vehicle, phone, laptop, marketing support, estimating team, project management, clear path, medical/dental/vision, PTO, holidays, 401k, disability, life insurance. So we can have Benefits section (list) and Pay section (base pay info). Also maybe Schedule? Not mentioned. So we omit Schedule. - Consider the Possibilities: more marketing fluff; could be part of About the role or Benefits? It's more about company. Could be part of About the role. - About Paradise Energy Solutions: company description; could be part of About the role or maybe separate but not a standard heading. Could be omitted or included under About the role as extra paragraph. We must not invent sections like "About the company". But we can include that content under About the role as it's still relevant. We need to preserve all substantive information. So we need to include details from each bullet. Let's extract. About the role / Brief Description: "Paradise Energy Solutions is seeking a motivated, relationship-focused Associate Solar Sales Consultant to help businesses, farms, and homeowners throughout the Mid Atlantic region discover the benefits of solar energy. More than sales experience alone, we are looking for individuals who align with our core values of Faith, Integrity, Innovation, Teamwork, and Stewardship. These values guide how we serve customers, support one another, and conduct business every day, and they are essential to continue our long-term success. This role is built for someone earlier in their sales career and ready to learn the trade and grow into a full territory. You will start with structured training provided by our sales leaders, mentorship from an experienced team member, and support from company-generated sales leads. As you build confidence and product knowledge, you will take on more responsibility for developing your own sales pipeline through networking, prospecting, referrals, and community involvement. This is not an order-taking sales role. We will teach you solar. We will teach you our proven sales process. What we cannot teach is drive, integrity, and a genuine interest in people and helping them become good stewards of God’s abundant resources. If you are willing to learn, comfortable and confident talking with business owners and homeowners, and motivated by performance-based earnings, we would love to hear from you." That's substantive.

Requirements / Qualifications / Skills:
From "What We Are Looking For":
- Coachability and Work Ethic: description.
- Some Sales Or Customer Facing Experience: description.
- Community Connections: description.
- Self Motivation: description.
- Consultative Approach: description.
- Solar Experience Not Required: description.
Also "What Success Looks Like In Year One": could be considered expectations but we can include under Requirements or maybe as a separate section "Performance Expectations" but not allowed. Could incorporate into Responsibilities? Might be okay to add a section "Expectations" but not in list. Safer to put under Responsibilities as additional bullet? But it's about success metrics. Could be separate heading "Performance Expectations" but not allowed. Maybe we can put under Responsibilities as additional bullet? However it's not a duty but an outcome. Could be placed under "What Success Looks Like In Year One" as a separate section but not in allowed list; maybe we can treat it as part of Responsibilities (like "Meet the sales targets established for your territory and experience level").
We can add bullet: "Meet the sales targets established for your territory and experience level" under Responsibilities.
Also "Complete onboarding and demonstrate command of our products, incentives, and proposal process" etc. Already covered.
Thus we can have Requirements section with bullet list of coachability, sales experience, community connections, self motivation, consultative approach, solar experience not required.
Skills maybe not needed separate; but we could have Skills heading for consultative approach, relationship building, communication. But we already have those in Requirements. To avoid thin sections, we can combine Requirements and Skills into one section maybe "Requirements & Skills". But headings must be from list; we could use "Requirements" and put all there. That's fine.
Benefits: from "What We Offer":
- $80,000 base pay offset by commissions earned, with uncapped earning potential and bonus opportunities
- Structured onboarding, mentorship, and ongoing sales and solar industry training
- Company vehicle, cell phone, laptop, and required accessories
