About Uplight

  • Commercial strategy experience — you understand deal structures, how businesses grow, and how data can sharpen commercial decision-making
  • Experience at a Big 4 firm or top-tier consulting practice — you've thrived in that environment and are now excited to bring that rigor to a leaner, faster-moving team
  • Comfort building or iterating on financial models and dashboards from scratch — you're not intimidated by a blank spreadsheet

Responsibilities

  • Évoluer la stratégie commerciale en fournissant des informations basées sur des données pour informer et autonomiser l'équipe de vente.
  • Mettre en place et déployer des variations de l'infrastructure de suivi des accords, en construisant des systèmes qui donnent à la direction une visibilité en temps réel sur la santé du pipeline.

Requirements

  • Fundamental comfort with numbers and financial modeling — strong Excel skills or a genuine eagerness to develop them. A finance background is not required, but numeracy is a must
  • An earnest, inquisitive, self-starter mindset — you're someone who digs in, asks the right questions, and figures things out independently without needing a rigid playbook
  • Adaptability and moldability — you're ready to move beyond a large corporate structure, bring your best skills, and grow into exactly what the business needs
  • 2–3 years of experience in strategy consulting, investment banking, corporate strategy, or a similar analytical role — Big 4 or equivalent backgrounds are a strong fit
  • Exposure to energy, utilities, or clean tech — passion for the mission is just as valuable as domain expertise
