About the role
As Energy Founders Associate, you will be a high impact generalist who combines deep energy expertise with the ability to execute across a wide range of strategic and operational topics. You'll sit at the intersection of energy product strategy, sales enablement, partner education, and cross-functional collaboration.

- Execute the energy product strategy alongside the Head of Energy — contributing to product positioning, partner messaging, and market development across Germany and Austria.
- Identify and act on automation and efficiency improvements within sales and partner communication flows, using HubSpot, AI workflows, and internal knowledge bases.
- Act as the go-to energy expert for the sales team: step into complex installer conversations, close knowledge gaps, and take ownership of topics that require specialist-level depth.
- Consult directly with installation partners on dynamic tariffs, smart meter operation, §14a controllable energy consumers, pricing mechanics, and grid regulation.
- Activate and educate installer partners on Cloover Energy products, explaining how our dynamic tariff and HEMS create revenue opportunities for them and tangible value for end customers.
- Build and maintain the internal energy knowledge base — train the sales team, answer recurring questions, and raise the baseline energy IQ across the company.
- Create content where needed: partner-facing messaging, internal briefings, regulatory guides, FAQs, and quick-reference materials.
- Represent Cloover at partner meetings and industry events, building credibility with installers and strategic stakeholders.
What you'll need
- 1–2 years of professional experience inside the energy sector — utilities, energy retailers, network operators, aggregators, or energy startups.

- Switches comfortably between strategy, operations, content, and partner communication in the same week.
- Takes topics and pushes them forward without waiting to be asked.

- Completed Master's degree in any field.
- German C2, English B2.
