SATCON TECHNOLOGIES: Hiring for Two Business Development Positions at Leading Cleantech Company
I need to fill two business development manager positions in my organization here at Satcon, and I wondered if you had anyone you could recommend.
We are the leader in power conversion system for commercial solar energy in North America, and growing rapidly internationally. It's an exciting field, and these jobs are a great opportunity for someone that is interested in getting into the cleantech industry.
Both positions are located in the Bay Area.
One is for North America, and the other is for Asia. They will report to the Sr. Director of Business Development, who reports to me.
The person must have experience developing and managing a channel for high tech products. Preferably hardware background, but a software or solutions background with the willingness to learn about the industry quickly would do fine. Experience developing an OEM agreement would be fantastic.
We'd like the BD person for Asia to be fluent in Korean. We are in the process of signing a major distributor in Korea, and are already doing a fair amount of business there.
These jobs are open today, and we need to fill them immediately.
Again, if you know anyone interested in cleantech, this is a great opportunity.
