The Role - Head of Marketing

To date, Hypervolt has sold and installed 50,000 chargers in homes across the UK and Australia. Our growth has been driven by a great product, strong content, and word-of-mouth referrals. We'd now like to build on that momentum to take things to the next level.   We’re looking for a high-performing Head of Marketing to design and deliver our go-to-market strategy. This is a great opportunity to take ownership of the marketing function and build the marketing department from ground zero.    You’ll report directly to the founder/CEO, and will have responsibility for building a team (over time) to deliver on the strategy. You’ll be supported by a fractional CMO, a seasoned marketing veteran who will provide strategic guidance and mentorship.

  • Partnerships. Manage our existing relationships (such as with Autotrader) and develop new partnerships. 
  • Content & SEO. We’ve seen strong impact from video content (such as this). You’ll continue generating high quality content to drive sales.

  • Go-to-Market. A deep understanding of go-to-market design and delivery including performance marketing, partnerships, and conversion optimisation 
  • High-end Brand Experience. You’ve learnt how to deliver impeccable brand communication and the highest level of experience to customers. 
  • High EQ. You can lead, inspire, and mentor peers, direct and indirect reports, as well as dealing with senior stakeholders. You have excellent written and verbal communication skills. 
The following would also be positives:

Our values

 

Be persistent

What we aim to do is not always going to be easy, and problem solving no matter how big or small is absolutely essential if we are going to achieve our mission. Whether it be a technical challenge you are struggling to unblock, a new client you are trying to win or a logistical puzzle you need to solve, the only way we will grow as a company and as individuals is by being persistent in working things through to a solution. Success seldom comes from the first attempt, but it almost always comes from the 1000th, and the difference between success and failure often isn’t intelligence, or the aha moment or the brilliant idea: it’s having the perseverance to continue pushing and never giving in to failure. 

Be accountable

We operate in a fast paced, highly collaborative and increasingly autonomous environment at Hypervolt. We are on the journey from scrappy startup to a true market contender, but no matter how big the company gets, treat it as your own. Be accountable for its progress, and look after it as you would your own creation. If you know things can be improved, articulate it, say it, and don’t go along in the silence of knowing we could have done better. If we made a mistake, find a way to say it. There’s no value in keeping it to yourself, we will succeed or we will fail together.  

Embody the ‘Ello Sir Ethos

We should always aim to treat people the way they want to be treated, and always remember the “voting” power of customers. They are the true boss, and the one true “employer”. Not the founders, not the investors, not the shareholders, not anyone else. The market. We have worked incredibly hard to deliver a 5 star experience to our customers and we should never forget that we are only ever as good as our last customer experience. This same ethos must apply internally too. Everyone of us always serves a customer whether it be external or internal and a 5 star experience is what we each should deliver and in return expect. 

Dare to dream

Every Technological advancement that we use today was once a crazy dream that was truly believed by a few persistent pioneers. “Most things have to be seen to be believed, but some things have to be believed to be seen!” - Steve Jobs, on building the Apple Mac, the best selling computer of all time.

Stay hungry, stay foolish

The hunger and ambition for continuous success are the orbital solar beam powered reactor at the core of our success, and our ability to stay foolish, humble, and continue to let ourselves be educated by our market will help us reach the full potential of our ambition. It is only through the most selfless dedication to our dreams that we will achieve the most selfish of successes.

True greatness is blind

Great ideas, and great execution can come from anyone and anywhere at any time. The sole measure of a person is their contribution, their success, and their power to adhere to our mission and values. You may never treat others on the basis of hierarchy, or any other criteria, and you must always treat them as you would yourself. United in our culture and values, we must celebrate our differences.

For most people, design is the product

Great products are built starting from the customer experience, and we must never forget our job is to make simple products people love. Simplicity truly is the ultimate sophistication, and no matter how many algorithms we write or how many features we build, we can never allow ourselves to forget the end customers we are building products for.
