Voltus teammates need to be authorized to work from their home location (in the US or Canada, unless otherwise indicated on the role description). Voltus is the leading platform connecting distributed energy resources to electricity markets, delivering less expensive, more reliable, and more sustainable electricity.

Our commercial and industrial customers and grid services partners generate cash by allowing Voltus to maximize the value of their flexible load, distributed generation, energy storage, energy efficiency, and electric vehicle resources in these markets.

Operating at the intersection of the B2B energy market, media relations, and executive leadership, you will design and execute a unified internal and external communications strategy. Equally important, you will own internal communications, ensuring our workforce remains informed, inspired, and deeply aligned with our mission and strategic goals.

Voltus is a fully distributed company and this job is remote, but you must be located and authorized to work within the United States or Canada.

Serve as the primary point of contact for media inquiries and direct crisis communications if necessary. • Internal Communications & Culture: Design and execute an internal communications strategy that keeps employees aligned, engaged, and motivated. • Thought Leadership Program: Drive the editorial roadmap for executive voices.

Skills and Qualifications • Experience: 8–10+ years of experience in corporate communications, PR, or journalism, with at least 3+ years specifically within the B2B energy, cleantech, or heavy industrial tech sectors. • Communications Breadth: Proven track record handling both external PR and internal/employee communications within a growing organization. • Track Record: Success placing high‑tier business and trade media stories, managing large‑scale corporate events, and building executive profiles from the ground up. • Energy Acumen: A deep understanding of current energy market dynamics, sustainability trends, and the regulatory landscape.

You are obsessed with clarity, tone, empathy, and storytelling. How to Apply Please submit your resume and a brief cover letter outlining your experience in the B2B energy space. Please note that at this time, we do not sponsor visas or transfers for new hires.

Additionally, while Voltus is an all‑remote workplace, we have limitations on where employees are able to work for regulatory and security reasons. We expect that Voltans are working primarily from their home country. Working while traveling to other countries must be approved as per our Global Remote Travel Policy.
