This role sits within our Retail Energy Division and works from our Austin HQ. Exceptional remote candidates may be considered.
The Role
We’re hiring a VP of Retail Energy to help drive the next phase of growth. In this role, you will be accountable for net-new customer growth and year-1 customer profitability across our sales channels for our two subsidiary retail energy supplier brands.
This is not a role where you’ll be handed a plan and asked to execute it, though there’s a clear near-term roadmap and an incredible team to get you ramped quickly. From day one, you’ll be expected to figure out where the highest-leverage work is, get it done, and build the sales org structure to sustain growth into the next phase.
What You’ll Be Accountable For
-
Net-new customer acquisition targets across multiple sales channels
-
Year-1 customer economics: CAC payback, early churn, cohort profitability
-
Sales compliance risk management - ensuring the sales org operates cleanly
-
Building and running pilots of new growth strategies, with scale up once proven
-
New market launch execution and ramp to target customer counts
-
Sales org development: defining the structure, roles, and processes needed to support the next phase of growth
-
Building the capability of your channel leaders so they operate with higher leverage over time
-
Vendor and agent management and economics
How Performance is Measured
-
Net-new customer acquisitions vs. plan
-
CAC payback achievement vs. model
-
Sales compliance outcomes
-
Sales org capability and readiness for growth
What We’re Looking For
-
You have a track record of identifying and executing high-leverage work in ambiguous environments. You’ve figured out what mattered most and drove it.
-
You’ve made real mistakes and learned from them. Which means you’ve taken swings and owned the outcomes.
- You’ve managed a team and you’re really good at it. This includes hiring, coaching, giving direct feedback, and addressing underperformance. You’ll be leading an excellent team, and they need a strong operating partner.
Retail energy experience is a strong plus. But the core skills, like finding leverage, autonomous execution, and people management, matter more than industry background.
Benefits:
-
Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
-
401(k) with matching eligibility
-
Flexible PTO policy
-
Mobile phone stipend
-
East Austin location close to restaurants and events
