The posting

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Founding Head of Marketing based in the United States.

As the first marketing leader, you will build and lead a marketing function designed to accelerate enterprise growth in the evolving energy and utility technology sector. You will shape go-to-market strategy, establish differentiated product positioning, and strengthen relationships with strategic utility customers. Working closely with founders and cross-functional leaders, you will connect marketing initiatives directly to customer acquisition, account expansion, and long-term market credibility. You will develop account-based programs, compelling customer narratives, and industry engagement strategies that help complex enterprise buyers make informed decisions. An AI-forward approach will be central to improving research, personalization, content development, and operational efficiency. This is an opportunity to define the marketing organization from the ground up and help establish a leadership position in a critical, rapidly changing market.

Accountabilities:

  • Define the marketing strategy, roadmap, goals, KPIs, and measurement systems, connecting marketing activity to account engagement, pipeline progression, customer expansion, and market position.
  • Establish the marketing operating model, manage the budget, allocate resources, and determine the right balance of internal capabilities, agencies, contractors, and specialist partners.
  • Build AI-enabled workflows and reusable systems that improve research, content quality, account intelligence, personalization, analysis, and team productivity.
  • Lead product marketing and positioning, including messaging architecture, value propositions, category narrative, competitive differentiation, and buyer-specific communications.
  • Translate complex technical capabilities into clear business outcomes for utility executives, engineers, planners, operators, procurement teams, and other stakeholders.
  • Develop sales enablement materials, business cases, presentations, customer narratives, and tailored tools that help progress complex enterprise opportunities.
  • Coordinate marketing execution for product launches and key market moments, ensuring each initiative has clear audiences, commercial objectives, and credible supporting evidence.
  • Build an account-based growth strategy spanning acquisition, customer expansion, and advocacy, aligning Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success around priority accounts.
  • Collaborate with Commercial leadership to define ideal customer profiles, priority segments, account tiers, buying groups, and targeted engagement strategies.
  • Create tailored programs for strategic utility accounts and repeatable account-based campaigns for other high-fit prospects, using relevant content, executive engagement, events, partners, and coordinated sales activity.
  • Partner with Customer Success to identify emerging stakeholders and use cases, deepen customer relationships, and translate adoption outcomes into expansion opportunities.
  • Establish a content and market-credibility strategy that addresses the challenges, priorities, and questions most relevant to utility buyers.
  • Turn customer outcomes and deployment insights into case studies, references, executive narratives, sales evidence, educational content, and event materials.
  • Develop a distinctive executive voice and point of view on industry challenges, ensuring content is discoverable through traditional search, AI-powered discovery, industry channels, and strategic account engagement.
  • Build a community of utility leaders and practitioners through executive roundtables, customer forums, events, and other programs that encourage peer learning and relationship building.
  • Develop customer advocacy and industry partnerships through webinars, podcasts, case studies, events, and relevant professional communities.
  • Measure marketing's contribution to stakeholder engagement, executive access, opportunity progression, customer expansion, advocacy, and overall commercial growth.
  • Build and develop a high-performing marketing team, establish strong operating discipline, and scale capabilities in line with business needs.
  • 10+ years of B2B marketing experience, including meaningful experience in enterprise product marketing, account-based marketing, or a closely related discipline.
  • Experience building a marketing function, or a significant part of one, within an early-stage or rapidly growing company.
  • Deep expertise in product marketing, including positioning, messaging, customer research, content marketing, sales enablement, and product launches.
  • Demonstrated experience supporting large, complex enterprise deals involving multiple stakeholders and extended sales and procurement cycles.
  • Experience developing account-based marketing programs in partnership with Sales and Customer Success across acquisition, expansion, and customer advocacy.
  • A proven ability to transform customer outcomes into credible proof points, references, case studies, and commercially effective marketing assets.
  • Experience building customer advocacy, professional communities, or ecosystem programs that generate peer engagement, referrals, word of mouth, and market validation.
  • Excellent writing, storytelling, narrative development, and executive communication skills.
  • Experience defining marketing strategy, managing budgets, allocating resources, and balancing immediate commercial objectives with long-term market development.
  • Strong prioritization and execution skills, with the ability to independently take work from initial insight through delivery.
  • A practical, AI-forward mindset, with experience using AI for research, content creation, account intelligence, personalization, analysis, or marketing operations.
  • The judgment to identify where AI can create meaningful efficiencies and where human expertise, customer context, accuracy, and careful review are essential.
  • Demonstrated experience building, leading, and developing effective teams while managing external agencies and specialist partners.
  • Strong business judgment, a collaborative approach, low ego, and the ability to work directly with founders, commercial leaders, customers, and technical teams.
  • Experience in energy, utilities, grid technology, climate technology, infrastructure software, or another technically complex enterprise market.
  • Familiarity with enterprise buying groups, utility procurement processes, industry ecosystems, and the challenges of establishing credibility in highly specialized markets.
  • Significant ownership of marketing strategy, budget, execution, and organizational development.
  • Direct collaboration with the founders and senior leaders to shape go-to-market strategy and business growth.
  • The opportunity to build the marketing function from the ground up, including its team, operating model, and capabilities.
  • The chance to help advance technology supporting grid modernization, electricity capacity planning, and the energy transition.
  • Location flexibility: based in San Francisco, with remote work available for candidates able to work West Coast hours.
  • Salary, healthcare, equity, paid leave, and other benefits are not specified in the provided job description.

  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
