Job Description

Clean Energy for everyone.

Welcome to zolar! We’re on a mission to make solar power accessible to everyone and are proud to enable our customers to use the power of the sun in their own homes while making an active contribution to climate protection.

At zolar, we know that different people are successful in different ways, which is why we offer a hybrid working environment, meaning you can decide how much time you spend in our Berlin office, or how much time you spend working from home.
We strive for sustainability, we are ambitious, honest, and transparent, and we never want to stop learning or growing.

Will you join us in working towards a greener future for everyone?

Your role at zolar

  • In this role, you will own the budget of our new financing product and strategically allocate it in order to grow the product in a cost-effective rate.
  • As the decision-maker for customer pricing, you will play a crucial role in optimizing profitability and maintaining market competitiveness in close collaborations with our finance team.
  • You will take charge of designing and overseeing the implementation of a comprehensive Go-to-Market strategy, collaborating closely with our Growth and Customer Service teams.
  • Providing diligent oversight, you will monitor daily operations and procedures related to our new financing product to maintain high efficiency and quality standards.
  • Acting as the primary point of contact, you will ensure alignment and communication across all functions within Zolar.
  • Your leadership will drive the transition from Minimum Viable Product (MVP) to a mature product, overseeing continuous development and improvement.

What you will need to bring

  • With a minimum of 6 years of relevant experience, you bring a wealth of expertise to this role.
  • Having served as a business owner, project manager, product owner, or operational manager, your responsibilities have included business case modelling, P&L oversight, small business unit/team management, and strategic long-term planning.
  • Your experience in project management, particularly for a digital, consumer finance, or solar product, is evident in your successful track record.
  • Your structured approach is complemented by the ability to drive cross-departmental projects, align various functions, and steer multi-stakeholder teams effectively.
  • Your mindset is characterized by a strong business and solution orientation, adaptability, pragmatism, drive, and autonomy.
  • As a team player, you excel in both verbal and written communication, demonstrating excellent language skills in English (professional proficiency in German is preferred).

Remote work equipment // Ready for work
We want you to be able to work as well at home as you can in the office, so we’ll provide you with all the equipment you need to successfully work from home. We’ll also give you a one-off budget to purchase a desk, chair or other things you might need for your home office.

Dog policy // Bring your own dog
A variety of four-legged feel-good managers provide natural entertainment in the office and enjoy the attention of their two-legged colleagues. If you want to bring your dog to work, you can!

Team events // Involved instead of just employed
Get off to a great start – we come together at least twice per year for our legendary summer and winter parties, and look forward to welcoming you in Berlin!
