About Power Providers
Power Providers is one of the leading renewable energy providers in Tanzania. Power Providers was established in 2007 in order to develop an energy specific market niche. With over ten years of experience, a range of internationally recognised best-brand products and a well-established support structure, we are well positioned to offer flexible, reliable energy solutions that are uniquely tailored to the requirements of customers across Tanzania
Power Providers employs skilled professionals who are trained to understand the unique energy needs of each customer we work with, and who specialize in designing and installing specific solutions for each of our clients. In addition, Power Providers employs highly motivated support staff in order to run a smooth operation.

The position
The Sales Engineer will be part of our sales & marketing team. As a Sales Engineer, you will engage with our potential clients and work together on the process of data collection, data analysis, design requirements and quotation.

The job will involve a significant amount of travel to the sites of our clients (which are luxury lodges, however, also remote hospitals). You are also expected to be networking at conferences/events, build upon our existing relationships as well as developing new relationships.
Aside from engaging with potential clients, you are also expected to stay involved in the whole process from the moment of initial contact to final payment after installation. As such this job involves interaction with our design engineer and our logistics, accounts, and operations departments.
Requirements

Several years of experience in sales, design or installation of commercial-scale off-grid solar power systems
