Job Purpose/Mission
- The Commercial Supervisor drives urban and peri-urban sales of high-tier solar products and accessories, Referral Agent network performance, and portfolio health.
- The role recruits and manages a Referral Agent network, onboards third-party partners (mobile telephone dealers, contractors, electricians) for lead flow, runs local pull-sales promotions and direct sales, validates every completed installation within 72 hours, and carries ultimate ownership of the credit/debt portfolio generated in the urban and per-urban location.
- Two things happen on every case without exception: every completed installation receives a 72-hour validation site visit against approved forms and SOPs, and every non-performing account gets a same-day response from this role before it gets escalated to the Collections Department.
Responsibilities
Daily Cadence — Referral Agent Network, Lead Conversion & Direct Sales
- Each day, keep the Referral Agent network active and productive, and keep direct sales moving:
- Field mentorship — shadow, coach, and actively performance-manage Referral Agents in the urban and peri-urban location; keep the network active and supported, not just recruited.
- Lead tracking & conversion — maintain strict use of SOL.RM’s Prospecting App for every Referral Agent lead; provide hands-on support to maximize conversion into closed sales.
- Direct sales — pitch and close solar products and mobile phone solutions directly, complementing Referral Agent volume and covering key customer catchment locations the Referral Agent network doesn\'t reach.
- Service Center sales support — support in-store sales promotions and activations at peri-urban Service Centers in the location.
- Third-party partner servicing — maintain relationships with onboarded mobile telephone dealers, local contractors, and electricians to keep referral volume steady
Escalate Same Day If:
- A Referral Agent\'s leads or conduct raise fraud concerns — fabricated leads, ghost sign-ups, or pressure-selling.
- A closed sale cannot be onboarded onto SOL.RM the same day.
72-Hour Cadence- Installation validation & Quality Assurance
- Within 72 hours of every completed installation in the urban and peri-urban location, run the validation audit:
- 72-hour audit — visit the site to follow up on and validate the installation; complete documentation in accordance with the approved forms and SOPs.
- Technical & issue support — provide immediate support for any operational, technical, or customer issue identified during the visit.
Escalate Same Day If
- A validation visit surfaces a falsified sign-off, a ghost installation, or a safety defect.
- A technical issue found during validation cannot be resolved at the urban and peri-urban location level.
Weekly Cadence - Portfolio Health & Referral Agent Performance
- Every week, review the urban and peri-urban location’s credit portfolio and the health of the Referral Agent network behind it:
- Portfolio ownership — review the credit/debt portfolio generated in the urban and peri-urban location; track the Current / Delayed / Defaulted split against the company\'s 70/20/10 plan.
- Referral Agent network health — review active vs. inactive Referral Agent ratio; retrain or replace underperforming Referral Agents.
Escalate If:
- Urban and peri-urban location portfolio trends toward Defaulted beyond the 10% plan threshold.
- Commercial Supervisor fails to obtain a same-day response from non-performing account to the Collections Department.
Monthly Cadence – Community Relations & Regulatory Compliance
- By the relevant deadlines each month, maintain the urban and peri-urban location’s standing with regulators and the community, and plan ahead:
- Local relations — cultivate relationships with leaders, key stakeholders, and grassroots organizations in the urban and peri-urban location.
- Regulatory compliance — ensure all Referral Agent operations, promotions, and partner engagements strictly comply with local government regulations and laws.
- Pull-sales campaign planning — plan next month\'s roadshows, promotional events, and community-level marketing activities to build demand ahead of the sales cycle in collaboration with peri-urban Service Center Supervisor.
Escalate If:
- A regulatory or compliance issue risks a halt to commercial activities in the urban and peri-urban location.
