Business Development Manager

About Energy5 

Energy5 is a leading turnkey provider of decarbonization infrastructure. We take care of every step of the process so our clients can focus on what matters most to them. We handle everything from site design and engineering to grant paperwork, permitting, installation, inspection, and ongoing maintenance, we manage it all. Our most successful product line has been EVSEs where we offer both Level 2 and Level 3 DC Fast Charging Stations, and we’ve built strong partnerships with top manufacturers like ChargePoint, Zerova, ABB, Tritium, BTC Power, Autel, Wallbox, and more. 

In 2024 we tripled our revenue. We’re a small and nimble team, eager to tackle one of the most prominent issues facing our planet today. Yet we’ve got the support of our sister company, Utilities One, which gives Energy5 nationwide capabilities and the ability to tackle any job from a small family owned grocery store, up to dozens of ports at a warehouse.  

About the Role 

The Business Development Manager will be responsible for adapting our turnkey solution for clean energy deployment into more customizable options for industry partners. Currently, we provide engineering, permitting, construction, installation, rebate/grant management, and O&M services for each of our projects. Many industry partners are seeking to collaborate with us on specific portions of our expertise. 

Up until now, managing the rebate process for state, utility, and federal incentives for other installation partners has been a primary focus of the Business Development expansion. We have developed expertise in navigating utility processes and guiding our own projects through the complexities of rebate funding. Now, we aim to expand this expertise to other partners, advancing the entire industry while creating a new revenue stream here at Energy5. 

The ideal candidate will have experience with clean energy rebates nationwide, a strong business development mindset, and a desire to learn and grow. While rebates are central to this role, the scope is far broader. Energy5 is a highly flexible organization that prides itself on adapting to market needs. As the Business Development Manager, you will play a crucial role as part of the leadership team by shaping the future of this business and identifying key industry partnerships.
