Product Manager

**⚡️About Volter** Volter is a top\-tier VC\-backed B2B energy tech platform building the products that make clean, renewable power simple for businesses everywhere. The energy transition is a huge and vital opportunity, but it's currently too difficult for commercial \& industrial companies to achieve. Historically, the energy industry has been too opaque, complex and lacking in trust. We're fixing that. We aim to be the "Octopus Energy for industry": a modern tech platform providing new renewable energy products with radical transparency, accelerating deployment of renewables and helping customers cut costs and carbon without complexity. We're excited to use technology to help our customers deploy \& utilise more renewable energy and fast\-forward the energy transition \- and we need your help! **💼 Role: Product Manager** We're hiring a **Product Manager** to own how Volter builds product \- across both **external products** for our customers and partners and the **internal tooling** that powers our pricing, ops and commercial teams. Both matter equally here: the internal platform is how we scale without scaling headcount, and you should be excited by both. You're probably mid/senior\-level, but highly skilled and independent: you can run discovery, write the spec, prioritise ruthlessly and ship \- without needing a product org around you. You'll work cross\-functionally with founders, commercial, ops and engineering, and act as a manager **of the tech team** : bringing clarity and focus, and getting the most out of our engineers. Our domain is complex \- energy data, pricing, settlement, billing. Your superpower is **bringing simplicity to complex problems** and **deeply understanding the user problem** before writing a line of spec. **🛠️ Day\-to\-day responsibilities** **Discovery \& user understanding** * Spend real time with users \- brokers, customers, generators and our own pricing/ops/commercial teams \- and turn what you learn into sharp problem statements * Deeply understand workflows before proposing solutions; test, validate \& move quickly **Product delivery (external \& internal)** * Own the roadmap across external product (customer/partner\-facing platform) and internal tooling (pricing, ops, billing automation) * Write crisp specs and narratives that make complex things simple * Prioritise ruthlessly against commercial impact \- revenue, win rates, hours saved \- and say no clearly * Ship fast, measure outcomes, iterate **Leading through tech** * Manage the engineering team: context, clarity, and unblocking \- getting the most out of a small, senior team * Prototype and explore with AI tools yourself \- you don't wait for an engineer to test an idea * Keep quality and standards high: what we ship should feel simple and considered, even when the domain isn't **Cross\-functional glue** * Work daily with founders, commercial, pricing and ops to keep product tied to what actually moves the business * Communicate roadmap, trade\-offs and progress so everyone knows what's coming and why **🧩 What experience you bring** * Solid product management experience in **B2B** , ideally in similar spaces (energy, fintech, marketplaces, data\-heavy or regulated industries) * Experience building **both internal tooling and external products** * A track record of **outcomes, not features** : you can point to measurable commercial impact from things you shipped * Strong technical fluency: you understand data models, APIs and system constraints, and can earn engineers' respect \- **AI\-native ways of working strongly preferred** * Evidence of a real **discovery habit** : user insights that changed what you built * Excellent writing \- your specs and problem statements do the simplifying * Data\-capable: comfortable pulling and analysing data yourself (SQL or equivalent) * Comfort operating **independently** , without a product org, design system or research team around you **Desirable** * Energy industry knowledge (tenders, pricing, metering, settlement, billing) * Zero\-to\-one experience at an early\-stage startup * Experience shipping AI\-powered product features or automation **🤘Who you are** * Ambitious and independent: you want ownership of a whole product surface, not a slice of a backlog * Deeply curious \- about users, the energy market, and how things work under the hood * A simplifier: you bring calm and clarity to messy, complex domains * Hungry for responsibility and happy to work hard for it \- you don't need encouragement to go harder or faster * Impatient in the best way: you want to ship more, faster, and you scale yourself through technology and AI * Bought into our mission \- you want to change the world with us * You have a strong bias toward action and having an impact quickly. You want to get sh\*t done * You are a self\-starter and autonomous in your way of working, but ultimately believe a team can get further together than any individual * You communicate clearly and keep things as simple as possible **🌱 What you can expect from us** * A dynamic and fast\-changing environment with incredible responsibility and autonomy * The chance to shape Volter's product and product culture from the very beginning * Working directly with and learning from experienced startup founders who've invested in and scaled businesses up to several billion dollars in valuation * Working on market\-leading and genuinely impactful products that help solve the climate crisis * A kick\-ass team of colleagues * We value in\-person time at our office in London, but offer hybrid/flexible working * Competitive compensation based on candidate profile with generous employee equity
