About Amber

Amber is a new way to buy power, designed for a world powered by renewable energy. We give customers direct access to the real-time wholesale electricity price as it varies every 30 mins and the technology to shift more of their energy usage to the times when cheaper renewables are available in the grid. It’s a cheaper way to buy power and the fastest way for Australia to reach 100% renewable energy.

We are growing rapidly and have thousands of customers who love what we are doing and a great product that will play a significant role in driving Australia towards a renewable future. We are backed by Australia’s leading VCs including Square Peg Capital, Giant Leap (Impact Investment Group) and Black Sheep Capital. We’re now at a critical moment in taking the business to real scale as we disrupt a huge market for the better.

We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace and a great culture of people who love coming to work to build a better world. You’d be a part of a rapidly growing team of 28 with expertise across energy, technology, marketing, and operations.

About the Role

Key Outcomes:

What we believe a great team looks like

  • We build a brand that customers love. We understand our customers and create a positive connection with them through every interaction. We deliver such surprise and delight that they enjoy telling their friends and family about it.
  • We look beyond growth to customer value. We seek to grow not just via the lowest cost customer but the right customers that will love their Amber experience and greatly benefit from what we have to offer.
  • We are willing to take calculated risks on bold ideas. We seek to do things differently and are willing to try creative ideas if we believe there is significant upside, with a culture where we recognise that not all ideas will succeed.
  • We take a hypothesis driven approach. We listen to our customers and develop hypotheses of actions we can take to improve every aspect of our marketing and run experiments to test if those hypotheses are true.
  • We are data driven. We set up the systems to easily track the performance of each new hypothesis so we can quickly determine whether or not we were right.
  • We seek insight. We seek to disaggregate the data to draw out the insight from an experiment to inform our next hypothesis.
  • We continually learn and improve. We keep track of the experiments we have run and the lessons we have learnt so that we continually improve and never make the same mistake twice.
  • We prioritise the biggest opportunities. We test a variety of channels but quickly cut what isn’t working and double down on what is.
  • We develop a repeatable growth process. We create repeatable channels and scalable programs for growth. We seek to build a growth engine with predictable results and acquisitions costs.
  • We see ourselves as one team and have fun. We work closely with the tech and operations teams to build a delightful product and customer experience. We trust each other. We love coming to work, and interacting with our colleagues and customers. If we spot an opportunity for a joke, or to do something nice for someone, then we take it.
