Are you our new Group Product Manager?

Our mission is to accelerate the energy transition. We do this by organising group buying projects for sustainable products such as renewable energy contracts, rooftop solar panels & storage, and heat pump installations.
We are human-centred, meaning that in everything we do, we look at the world through the eyes, hearts, and minds of humans. This allows us to create the ideal customer journey for both consumers and our partners via our digital platform.
Since 2008, we have helped 2.5 million consumers switch to a renewable energy contract, and over 140,000 people have installed solar systems on their roofs and generated their own electricity.
