Job description

TL; DR

We help large enterprises cut energy costs and valorize flexibility by steering their energy use in sync with market prices and renewable generation.

We're hiring a Brand Manager to shape how Companion shows up in the world.

You'll own our visual identity, messaging, events, and brand activations across Europe, making sure we stand out in a crowded market. You'll work closely with our existing network of branding and marketing freelancers to bring campaigns and creative work to life.

About Companion.energy

Companion.energy connects the financial side of energy management (contracts, markets, risk) with the operational side (assets, processes, sites). We model complex energy contracts and flexible assets, forecast demand and production, and translate predictions into automated, second-by-second decisions that move megawatts and money. Our software is used by large B2B enterprises and energy players to lower OPEX, maximize revenue, increase renewable usage, and manage risk.

Why Companion.energy?

• Solve real problems: Our customers rely on us to connect, control, and optimise their energy systems. You will work at the interface of markets and megawatts, making decisions that drive real financial outcomes.
• Bridge software and the physical world: We're writing code and closing deals that help real assets react to market signals, every second of the day.
• Join early, help shape the future: Small team, big impact. You will influence our commercial strategy, market expansion, and company culture.
• A mission that matters: Helping companies adapt to a volatile energy landscape isn't just smart business. It accelerates the energy transition.

What we are looking for

• Experience in brand management, marketing communications, or creative roles in B2B tech or energy.
