How to Apply for Entrepreneur in Residence (GTM) France (m/f/d)
at Green Fusion
🏢 About Green Fusion
Green Fusion uniquely automates boiler rooms to maximize energy savings and reduce CO₂ emissions, targeting a critical pain point in commercial and industrial buildings. As a startup, it offers the chance to directly impact climate change through scalable technology while working in a fast-paced, execution-focused environment. The remote-first structure allows for flexibility while tackling the specific challenges of the French energy market.
About This Role
As the GTM operator in France, you'll be the right hand to the Regional Manager, turning high-level strategy into weekly execution—from pipeline building to partner activation. This role is impactful because you'll directly shape how Green Fusion wins the French market, removing friction across sales, enablement, and partnerships. You'll build playbooks from scratch and see your work translate into measurable market traction.
💡 A Day in the Life
A typical day might start by reviewing CRM pipeline metrics and preparing a weekly priorities deck for the Regional Manager, followed by researching French contractors for partnership outreach. In the afternoon, you could localize a case study for a French client, join a cross-functional sync to align on a webinar, and end by qualifying new target accounts based on market feedback.
🚀 Application Tools
🎯 Who Green Fusion Is Looking For
- A recent graduate or professional with 0–2 years in startups, consulting, or operations who thrives in ambiguity and moves quickly with incomplete information.
- Structurally minded and detail-oriented, able to manage CRM hygiene, prepare crisp meeting materials, and localize sales decks for French audiences.
- Deeply curious about B2B GTM, with a knack for mapping ecosystems (e.g., French regulations, competitors like Qarnot or BrainBox) and synthesizing insights into actionable steps.
- A proactive communicator who can coordinate across functions, support outbound campaigns, and operationalize partnerships with contractors or PropTech companies.
📝 Tips for Applying to Green Fusion
Tailor your resume to highlight specific instances where you 'turned strategy into execution' in a fast-paced setting—think consulting projects, startup internships, or ops roles.
Demonstrate your 'bias to action' by including a brief, metrics-driven example in your cover letter (e.g., 'I launched a pilot that increased leads by X% within 2 weeks').
Show familiarity with the French energy or PropTech landscape—mention a competitor, regulation (like DPE), or partner type (e.g., metering point operators) to prove market readiness.
Emphasize cross-functional coordination skills; describe a time you aligned sales, marketing, and product teams to remove friction from a GTM rollout.
If you have no direct experience, frame transferable skills—like analyzing data for a university project or managing a club's partnerships—through the lens of GTM execution.
✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter
['Your ability to translate strategy into weekly priorities and experiments, citing a past example where you broke down a high-level goal into actionable steps.', "Interest in building GTM playbooks from scratch, especially for the French market, and how you've localized content or researched ecosystems before.", 'Experience supporting pipeline generation or partnerships, such as qualifying accounts, coordinating events, or onboarding partners in a B2B context.', "Why Green Fusion's mission—automating boiler rooms for CO₂ reduction—resonates with you, and how you'd leverage that to drive GTM execution in France."]
Generate Cover Letter →🔍 Research Before Applying
To stand out, make sure you've researched:
