And the best part? They are all interconnected!

  • Anticipate Market and Regulatory Developments: Stay ahead of regulatory, commercial, and technological trends in energy retail and flexibility markets. Translate emerging opportunities and requirements into actionable product initiatives.
  • Lead Commercial and Go-to-Market Success: Partner with Sales, Marketing, and Market Leads to position and scale our energy products globally. Ensure our energy offerings deliver measurable value to customers and strengthen 1KOMMA5°’s market leadership.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
