Job Description:

We’re looking for a CRO to lead commercial growth for a scaling energy efficiency business helping large organisations cut electricity waste with real, provable outcomes.

For a complete understanding of this opportunity, and what will be required to be a successful applicant, read on. Especially excited to speak to people with experience in:

  • International expansion (Ideally to the US and Europe)
  • Grown revenue from $3m TCV to $15M+
  • Sold a Hardware / Software combination

This is a hands on role: you’ll support strategic deals yourself, build a high-performing team around you, and design the GTM engine that gets us from $3M TCV → $20M+ and beyond.

You’ll own revenue growth end-to-end: strategy, execution, team, pricing, process, expansion.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Scale revenue from ~$3M to $20M+
  • Build and refine a scalable GTM model: segmentation, pricing, sales process, forecasting, accountability.
  • Lead an enterprise sales motion across multiple stakeholders (ops, sustainability, finance, facilities, procurement).
  • Create compelling ROI cases that land, prove value, and expand (POC → expansion is the game).
  • Build and develop a commercial team: hiring, onboarding, coaching, performance management.
  • Drive international expansion, first into the US, with an appreciation for regional complexity.
  • Operate with strong commercial finance awareness – you know revenue isn’t the only number that matters.

You’re likely to be a fit if you have:

  • A clear track record taking revenue from ~$1M to $10M+ (and you can explain how you did it).
  • Led market entry into a new geography (bonus points for the US) and landed meaningful early deals.
  • Confidence operating with boards / investors, and credibility with enterprise buyers.
  • Strong land-and-expand muscle (teams + process + commercial narrative).
  • Comfortable selling complex solutions – ideally in energy efficiency, smart buildings, construction, commercial real estate, or something similarly nuanced.
  • You’ve worked in businesses that combine physical product + software / data platform (and understand the realities: certification, supply chain, delivery constraints, and recurring revenue models).
  • Low ego, high EQ, and radically honest (the kind of person people trust quickly).
  • Curious by default — you challenge assumptions, follow the data, and adjust fast. xwzovoh
  • Strategic and hands-on — you’re as comfortable in board decks as you are in a deal cycle.
  • Resilient — you’ve stayed through the messy bit of scaling and helped fix it.
