Job Description

Location: London or Bristol

Kaluza’s vision is to help create a world where decarbonization is easy. Born out of the OVO Group, Kaluza is the AI platform powering the future of energy. 

From revolutionising customer billing to smart electric vehicle charging, our technologies are empowering some of the biggest energy suppliers to better serve millions of customers and unlocking the benefits of renewable energy and smart devices to help decarbonise the grid. Our products are built with differentiation in mind, giving developers endless ability to extend our core capabilities.

We are an agile scale up energy tech business, but we’re also backed by the resources of the UK’s largest independent energy supplier, OVO Energy. (The best of both worlds, one could say!). 

 

What will I be doing?

This will be an all-encompassing, dynamic role supporting a CEO based in Washington DC. Our main hub is in the UK so you would be based in either Bristol or London.

You will be supporting the CEO in an executive support position, protecting their time while ensuring that all of their business needs are met. 

The role will be varied and include:

  • Efficient management of the CEO’s time, and oversight of their diary to ensure it aligns with business priorities
  • Be the point of contact for the CEO 
  • Liaise with executive team to ensure clear communication and clarity on business challenges or opportunities 
  • Management of communication between CEO, Founder, board, investors and senior management and the wider business
  • Supporting on board papers 
  • Networking and relationship building on behalf of the CEO

 

Is this the job for me?

As Executive Assistant you will cultivate strong relationships with the CEO, the wider teams and all stakeholders; effective communication and interpersonal skills are a must. 

Ideally you will have/be.

  • Someone who is confident in your own abilities, sharp and ‘on-it’ and not afraid to  ask questions and push back when you need to.
  • Strong commercial sense and use judgement to make decisions.
  • A consummate gatekeeper and as such you will have conviction in your actions.
  • Agile and able to pre-empt the CEO, and also be able to offer alternatives. This role will require an individual who is adaptable and who can react quickly to fast-paced, changeable schedules and events, and all whilst remaining calm and unflappable. 
  • Ideally you will have experience of entrepreneurial environments and start-ups and a tech understanding.
  • Conscious in your working ethics. 
  • Be an ambassador of the business and the CEO at all times. 

This is a forward thinking, exciting business to be a part of. If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you!

 

From us you’ll get* 

  • 4% of your salary to spend on flexible lifestyle benefits
  • 5% matched employer contribution to your pension
  • Discretionary annual bonus 
  • 25 days holiday + 1 for your birthday
  • Flexible working hours
  • And many more... 

(*) Please note that certain benefits kick-in once you have passed probation which can be up to 6 months after your start date.

 

We want the best people

At Kaluza, we empower our people to have choices around where and when they work - flexible working arrangements can be discussed for all of our roles. Please speak to the Talent Acquisition team for more info.

We’re keen to meet people with varied backgrounds - our view is the more inclusive we are, the better our work will be. We want to build teams which represent a variety of experiences, perspectives and skills, and we recognise talent on the basis of merit and potential.

We understand some people may not apply for jobs unless they tick every box. If you're excited about joining us and think you have much of what we're looking for, even if you're not 100% sure… we'd love to hear from you.
