About ev.energy We are on a mission to decarbonise the grid by making EV charging greener, cheaper, and smarter. We are building the world’s largest Virtual Power Plant (VPP). By connecting to vehicles, chargers, we turn EVs into flexible grid assets that balance supply and demand, preventing blackouts and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. We are scaling rapidly across North America and Europe. We are moving fast, we are AI-first, and we are looking for builders who want to power the grid of the future. The Opportunity We are looking for a Senior Manager, Demand Generation who acts less like a "marketer" and more like a "Chief Revenue Officer" for their accounts. We have moved beyond the "lead volume" game. Our focus is on our Top 100 Accounts—large utilities, energy retailers, fleets. You will be the architect of our Account-Based Marketing (ABM) strategy, the "Ying" to our Content Manager’s "Yang," and the primary commercial partner to our Sales team. You will join a lean, high-ambition team where AI isn't a buzzword—it's how we outpace competitors. Core Responsibilities 1. ABM Strategy & Execution • From "Contacts" to "Accounts": Own the implementation of the ABM model.

Your role is to align these three pillars to unblock deals, accelerate pipeline velocity, and ensure every strategic account feels the weight of our brand., • Revenue Accountability: You are not measured by "MQLs."

You will use tools like Lusha, GammaAI, Lovable, and other LLMs to build assets, automate workflows, and create content at scale., • The Stack: You are the master of our tech stack.
