Ardeo Search has been appointed to search for a VP of Sales / Chief Revenue Officer at a fast-growing energy technology business. This is a rare opportunity to be the commercial leader at a company that's genuinely changing how flexible energy assets are monetised across global power markets.
The product is established, the customers are household names, and the timing is right. Now they need someone to grow the sales machine.
The opportunity
You'll report directly to the CEO, own revenue growth end-to-end, and grow a sales organisation. You'll write the playbook to enable growth.
The platform sits at the intersection of software, optimisation, and energy market access — helping IPPs, Gen-Tailers, and utilities unlock value from their flexible assets. The deals are complex, multi-stakeholder, and high-value. The sales cycle rewards genuine expertise, not pitch decks.
What you'll do
- Define and execute GTM strategy across priority segments and geographies
- Lead complex enterprise deals with trading, commercial, and C-suite stakeholders
- Build and scale a high-performing sales team and repeatable land-and-expand process
- Work closely with the Board to shape commercial strategy and market positioning
What we're looking for
You've led sales at VP or Head-of level in energy tech, power markets, or related B2B SaaS. You know what it takes to navigate long cycles, procurement-heavy environments, and technically sophisticated buyers. You've closed deals that matter — not just hit quota.
Why this role?
The company already has the proof points — customers include some of the largest energy businesses in Europe. What it doesn't yet have is the commercial infrastructure to scale. That's the job. If you want to define the commercial engine of a high-growth company in one of the most dynamic sectors in energy transition, this is worth a conversation.
