at Amber Electric
🏢 About Amber Electric
Amber Electric is a trailblazer in the green energy sector, enabling consumers to save money and profit through dynamic pricing and smart technology. As a remote-first company with a strong mission-driven culture, you'll have the opportunity to shape the European market for Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology, a cutting-edge field with massive growth potential.
About This Role
As the Founding Marketeer for Europe, you'll own the entire B2B marketing strategy from scratch, building brand awareness, generating leads, and establishing Amber as a leader in V2G. This role is highly impactful, as you'll directly influence go-to-market strategies for utility clients and act as the bridge between European market insights and global HQ.
💡 A Day in the Life
Your day might start with a virtual meeting with the global marketing team to align on strategy, followed by drafting a press release about a new utility partnership. Afternoon could involve reviewing a content calendar for LinkedIn thought leadership pieces, then hopping on a call with a potential client to advise on their consumer go-to-market plan.

- Exceptional written and verbal communicator who can tailor messaging for utility CEOs, journalists, and internal stakeholders.
- Comfortable with ambiguity and excited by the challenge of building a market from scratch, with a strong entrepreneurial mindset.
