So Energy

Who we are

So Energy was created in 2015 because we knew energy suppliers could be better. Since then, we’ve grown rapidly but sustainably, with 300,000 customers and over 450 Energists (what we call our people). But we’re not done. We’re on the road to a net zero future, and thanks to our partnership with ESB, we’re well on the way. We’re customer-centric, tech-led, and passionate about sustainability.

We want to do the best we can for our customers, each other, and our planet, so we’ve created a workplace that's encouraging, supportive, and offers the opportunity for growth. As a company, we live by six core values that guide everything we do:

• Clear
• Honest
• Ambitious
• Inquisitive
• Caring
• Sustainable

The Role

Partnerships Manager at SO ENERGY

Reporting into our Head of Growth 👋, we’re looking for a Partnerships Manager to join the team. 

As Partnerships Manager you will identify, develop and manage commercial partnerships to deliver sales targets across an evolving range of energy, solar and EV propositions.

You will bring experience in partner management, business development and sales operations, ready to hit the ground running and make a big contribution to So Energy’s ambitious growth plans.

You will bring a dynamic approach and the ability to build strong relationships, negotiate commercial agreements and ensure effective day-to-day operational management across a range of partners.

This is a new role with the potential to make a significant impact to the commercial performance of an ambitious and growing business.

What you’ll be getting up to:

• Identify and assess sales partnership opportunities, prioritising based on growth potential and return on investment.

• Develop business cases, negotiate terms and establish agreements with new sales partners and providers.

• Manage a portfolio of existing partners to optimise performance and ensure delivery against commercial targets.

• Build and maintain strong and collaborative relationships with partners to maximise the mutual commercial benefits.

• Act as the main point of contact for regular partner engagement, strategic direction, troubleshooting and support.

• Monitor performance against targets, providing regular reviews, reporting and insight-driven recommendations.

• Work cross-functionally to align partner opportunities with internal operations, processes and technical capabilities.

• Develop training materials, onboarding guides and content to support partner education and sales effectiveness.

• Ensure all partner activity aligns with So Energy quality standards and complies with relevant industry regulations.

• Work closely with legal, compliance, data and customer operations teams to mitigate risks and ensure best practice.

• Support So Energy’s wider marketing and commercial strategy as required to contribute to our commercial success.

This role will be a great fit if:

• Proven experience in partnership management, business development and sales, ideally within energy retail or utilities.

• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to build rapport quickly and develop collaborative relationships.

• Commercially astute, with an analytical mindset and the ability to prioritise based on outcomes.

• Experience of managing third-party sales channels in a fast-paced and target driven environment.

• High level of integrity and commitment to delivering a quality customer experience, compliant with regulatory requirements.

Research shows that some people are less likely to apply for a role unless they are 100% qualified. Your experience, skills and passion will set you apart so tell us about your achievements, irrespective of whether they are personal or work-related, tell us about your journey, and about what you learnt.

So, if this role excites you, don’t let our role description hold you back, get applying!
