In the words of the team, you should leave your current role for this one because….

'Want to be part of a fast paced and motivated team dedicated to helping customers start their decarbonisation journey? All whilst having plenty of fun along the way. This is the role for you'.

 

Where you’ll work:

At OVO, we understand that a one size fits all approach doesn’t work for everyone. That’s why we created the OVO Way of Flexibility.

All our roles are hub based (Bristol, Glasgow or London), providing a dedicated space for collaboration, connection and teamwork. For this specific role, due to the nature of where the teams are based, we're ideally looking for someone who is easily commutable to either of our Bristol or London hubs. You’ll also have the flexibility to work from home.

 

Everyone belongs at OVO

At OVO, we are on a mission to solve one of humanity's biggest challenges, the climate crisis. And we know it takes all of us to change the world. That's why we need diverse people from all abilities, gender identities, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, life experiences and backgrounds to join us.

 

Teamworking for the planet

Everything we do here spins around Plan Zero. So, naturally, the team you’ll be joining plays a gigantic role in making that happen. Here’s how:

We’ve made good progress on the UK’s path to net zero. But we can do better. The UK has some of the leakiest homes. And when you pair that with the fact that 14% of the UK’s carbon footprint comes from home heating, we’ve still got a long way to go.

This is where Energy Experts and Smart Thermostats come in! These are two products that are really built on the foundation of a better solution for our customers, their wallets and the planet. We want to engage our customers, to help them understand the changes they can make when it comes to energy efficiency & reducing heat waste.

We work like a start up - using our entrepreneurial, OVO Way spirit to drive us forward. And we’ll be flexible about how we do it - trying new things, growing the ones that work and learning new, green skills as we go. 

 

This role in a nutshell:

We’re on the look out for an experienced Product Marketing Manager to join our team.

Sitting within our Zero Carbon Living area of the business, this role will manage and drive all things Product Marketing for our Energy Experts and Smart Thermostats propositions. You’ll work closely with the Commercial & Product teams to shape the go-to-market approach. And work closely with our Growth channels and in house Creative Studio to drive awareness and demand for our products. As we scale and develop our propositions across new target audiences you’ll be responsible for crafting our go-to-market launch plan. 

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who has a passion for energy efficiency and wants to develop their Product Marketing career.

Your key outcomes will be:

• Partnering closely with Product & Commercial to help shape the go to market strategies for existing features and new releases
• Working with our Growth partners in the business (Performance Marketing, CRM, SEO, In-life Comms) to drive campaigns and ensure that there is proposition consistency
• Championing the voice of the customer in everything the team does. You’ll be the customer expert and you’ll bring these customers to life in everything you do
