Tradie Wanting Off the Tools? This Could Be It | Established Solar Business
Chief Electricians Pty Ltd
Posted 1 day ago
You’re a Solar Tradie. You’ve Got the Skills. Now Use Them From the Office and Earn More.
You've done your time in the sun. On rooftops. In ceilings. Lifting panels, dragging cable, dealing with delays, weather, and last-minute changes. You're sharp. You know solar inside and out. But lately, you've been wondering:
“What’s my next move?”
You love the trade, but you’re ready to get off the tools. Maybe your knees are starting to feel it. Maybe you’ve got a young family and weekends off suddenly matter more. Maybe you’ve outgrown your current crew and you’re ready to be valued for everything you know, not just what you can install.
This might be the opportunity you didn’t know you were looking for.
The Role
We’re one of Australia’s most highly rated solar companies (Top 8 on SolarQuotes nationally — “legendary” status). We're not a faceless corporate. We’re a young, energetic team based in Braeside, run by a former tradie who’s walked the same path you're on now.
And we’re looking for someone just like you to join our team in a full-time office-based sales role.
Here’s the deal:
· 100% inbound leads — no cold calling
· You’ll speak with homeowners, qualify their needs, and explain the system that’s right for them
· You’ll book inspections, prepare quotes, and close deals over the phone
· You’ll follow up open quotes and help people make confident buying decisions
· And you’ll do it all from the comfort of an air-conditioned office
If you’ve got the knowledge and communication skills, we’ll train you on the rest.
What’s On Offer
· Strong base salary negotiable on experience
· On target earnings of $140K+ with an uncapped commission structure
· Clear onboarding and support from people who know what it’s like to be on the tools
· A role that respects your trade knowledge and sets you up for long-term success
· Small team culture: fun, supportive, and social (we work hard and celebrate wins)
· Braeside-based office with a solid pipeline of leads coming in daily
What You’ll Need
· 2+ years of experience in solar installations (electricians or solar techs welcome)
· Strong phone manner — friendly, confident, and professional
· Comfortable using basic tech: email, spreadsheets, Microsoft Office
· Organised and methodical — you’ll be juggling multiple quotes and follow-ups
· Genuinely passionate about renewable energy
Nice to have: Any experience in quoting, customer comms or sales — but it’s not essential.
Is This You?
You might not have been looking for a sales role. But this isn’t just sales. It’s about using what you know to help people make smart solar decisions — and getting rewarded for it.
If you're ready to earn more, stress less, and still stay close to the trade you love, hit apply.
Let’s chat. You bring your trade smarts. We’ll bring the opportunity.
