๐Ÿข About Kaluza

Kaluza is an energy intelligence platform that empowers suppliers to drive decarbonisation through intelligent software. With teams across Europe, North America, Asia, and Australia, and partnerships with major companies like OVO, AGL, and Volvo, Kaluza is at the forefront of the clean energy transition.

Youโ€™ll spend time drafting a company-wide email about a new sustainability initiative, collaborating with the People team on an upcoming all-hands meeting, and monitoring engagement metrics from last weekโ€™s internal newsletter. After lunch, you might join a brainstorming session for a campaign to boost employee recognition, then review content for the intranet.
