About us:

At Gridcog, we’re on a mission to accelerate investment in the clean energy transition. We are a SaaS start-up of energy nerds on a mission to accelerate the energy transition by building the best project modelling software to enable our users to make intelligent energy decisions.

Who we’re looking for:

We’re looking to expand our footprint in Australia, and we are seeking a dynamic and enthusiastic business development professional to help accelerate our growth. You will join our Melbourne based team.

Our software enables professionals in renewable energy to make informed investments into energy projects that deliver economic and environmental value. Our clients include many of the world’s leading Investors, Developers, IPPs, Consultants and Energy Users. In this role, you will help grow our presence with utility-scale project developers across Australia. Gridcog is experiencing strong growth in this client sector, driven by increasing project complexity, both standalone and co-located assets, which demands best-in-class modelling software.

You will be able to quickly build rapport with our clients and prospects, empathise with their challenges (modelling complex energy projects) and demonstrate how Gridcog’s software solution will help. Your role will be to deliver commercial growth for Gridcog, delivering on a pre-agreed quarterly sales target.

You’ll also have a passion for the Gridcog mission, be happy to work at pace in a fast growing startup and enjoy collaborating with your colleagues globally. If this sounds like you, please read on!

  • Follow and improve our commercial processes including keeping your pipeline and deal records up to date in our CRM.
  • Act as part of a global team, your local Australian market experts will be with you in Melbourne but your sales colleagues are in Europe.
  • Learn from a small but experienced and successful business development team giving you a unique opportunity to gain exposure to complex deals and decision making.

To be successful in this role you will have:

  • Demonstrated success in either a commercial role in energy this could be in data, research or SaaS sales or a background in power markets gained through experience in origination, project development or analytics.
  • Demonstrable success in both hitting and exceeding objective targets.
  • Ambition, energy and commercial drive. You will be comfortable in ambiguity and willing to get stuck in, Gridcog is a dynamic startup environment.
  • Exceptional communication skills with a strong sense of customer empathy; you build strong and enduring relationships with your clients.
  • A willingness to become an expert in the Gridcog software.

We’d also love it if you have:

  • Some technical knowledge in one or more of the following areas: renewable energy, battery storage, microgrids, wholesale energy markets or e-mobility projects.
  • Demonstrated success in a B2B SaaS business
  • Experience using different sales methodologies
  • Startup experience
  • Knowledge or experience working in other energy markets in APAC.
  • Fluency in a European language.

Benefits:

  • Competitive remuneration package aligned with experience and skills.
  • Opportunity to work as part of our social Melbourne based team with flexible working arrangements
  • Be part of a high-performing team that values innovation and creative problem-solving
  • Contribute to the decarbonisation of the world's energy system.

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.
