Join AR Power and Help Shape the UK's Renewable Energy Future
AR Power is a fast-growing commercial renewable energy business helping organisations across the UK reduce energy costs, improve sustainability performance and achieve their net-zero ambitions. Through the design, installation and maintenance of commercial Solar PV and Battery Storage systems we deliver projects that create meaningful financial and environmental impact for our customers.
As we enter an exciting period of growth, we're looking for an ambitious and commercially driven Sales & Marketing Director to lead our commercial strategy, develop our market presence and drive significant revenue growth. This is a unique opportunity to join a growing business where you will have a genuine influence on strategy, direction and future success.
The Opportunity
This is not a traditional boardroom leadership role. We're looking for a commercially minded leader who can develop and execute a growth strategy whilst remaining actively involved in business development, client engagement and winning new business.
You'll be responsible for building and scaling AR Power's sales and marketing function, managing our Business Development team, developing strategic partnerships and personally nurturing high-value opportunities through to contract award. For the right individual, this role offers significant scope to grow with the business and play a key role in shaping our future.
Key Responsibilities
Sales Leadership & Business Growth
- Develop and execute AR Power's sales strategy to achieve ambitious growth targets.
- Develop and implement a robust opportunity qualification process to focus resources on commercially attractive, deliverable work.
- Build and maintain a strong pipeline of qualified commercial opportunities.
- Personally identify, develop and secure new business opportunities.
- Lead strategic client relationships and key account development.
- Establish clear sales-to-delivery handover standards and maintain accountability for customer expectations through contract award.
- Manage opportunities from initial engagement through to contract signature.
- Drive sales across Solar PV and Battery Storage.
- Develop accurate sales forecasts and commercial reporting.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
