🏢 About Nexamp

Nexamp is a leader in integrated solar solutions, driving the transition to clean energy with a focus on innovation and sustainability. Working here means contributing to a mission-driven company that combines environmental impact with commercial success. Their emphasis on residential solar and partner ecosystems offers a dynamic environment for growth.

About This Role

This role is pivotal in shaping Nexamp's residential sales strategy by owning vendor program performance and executive relationships. You'll lead sales enablement and operations across partner and inside sales channels, directly impacting growth, quality, and compliance. Your work will ensure scalable processes and a high-performing vendor network.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day might start with reviewing vendor performance dashboards and meeting with the Sales Enablement & Operations Manager to prioritize training needs. You'll then join a call with a key vendor partner to discuss program improvements, followed by a cross-functional sync with legal or compliance to ensure new processes align with regulations. The afternoon could involve analyzing lead conversion data and iterating on sales playbooks.
