Senior PR

Do you want to be part of facilitating the green transition? Do you thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where your actions drive meaningful change? Do you enjoy solving hard problems together with ambitious people? If this sounds like you, this could be a perfect match.

Join us to facilitate the green transition
Electrification and the transition to fossil-free energy create fantastic opportunities for us as individuals, as a company, and for society at large. However, it also creates challenges, especially for our energy system. Ingrid Capacity is a new kind of energy company on a mission to shape the future of energy. We challenge conventional energy models with intelligent energy services for grid operators and users. By uniquely combining software, hardware, and commercial innovation, we tackle one of the biggest bottlenecks to the energy transition: electricity grid constraints. This enables us to accelerate electrification and contribute to a more resilient, competitive, and sustainable energy system. Our impact is here and now. Since our founding in 2022, we have built a leading electricity trading and optimisation platform, commissioned and now operate over 200 MWh of large-scale energy storage facilities, and have an additional 340 MWh under construction across Europe. Today, Ingrid Capacity is in a rapid growth phase.

Working with PR & PA at Ingrid Capacity

Our goal is to support Ingrid Capacity in becoming the top flexibility provider in Europe with 8 GW deployed capacity by 2030. To get there, we need to build our brand and be recognized as a thought leader in the energy transition, an ambitious goal that will require dedication and hard work. Our key stakeholders span across the energy sector, financial sector, government and policy makers, partners and offtakers, media and talents.

About the role
As a senior PR & PA Manager, you will be instrumental in building and strengthening Ingrid Capacity's brand, reputation, and influence in both the public, regulatory and political arenas. You will take a leading role in shaping how Ingrid Capacity is perceived in the media, by policymakers, and within the broader energy ecosystem across Sweden and Europe. You will develop and implement strategies for PR and PA and work hands-on to position Ingrid as a thought leader in the energy transition while advocating for policies that support the development of large-scale energy storage and digital solutions that will optimize the electricity grids. One key goal is for Ingrid Capacity to become a natural speaking partner to policy makers, regulators, media and other key influencers in the energy sector. As part of a small Communications team, you will work hands-on and collaborate together, reporting to our Head of Communications. You will also work closely with the rest of the organization and together, we are making sure our vision, initiatives and brand are visible and enhanced across all our target groups and core markets.

Key tasks and responsibilities may include but are not limited to:
