What's Curo?

We’re a 5 person startup on a mission to accelerate electrification. We’re creating the first “Virtual Depot” platform for fleet vehicles, helping fleets to electrify at a fraction of the cost and time, whilst providing key utilization to existing EV charging and parking asset owners.

It’s critical for our planets sustainability to rapidly scale commercial fleet and asset electrification, but it’s just not that easy. Building charging infrastructure as a fleet is expensive, takes time and in a lot of cases isn’t possible. Conversely, there are now legal requirements for a variety of properties such as office buildings, multi-family dwellings, etc. To offer charging to their customers. Yet, ensuring a return on investment for these assets is difficult. To efficiently scale, we need mass visibility, stakeholder management and collaboration...enter Curo.

What's the role?

As the Virtual Depot Associate, you will be the second member of the Virtual Depot team, responsible for finding, contracting with and converting private EV charging and parking sites into fleet ready Virtual Depots. You will work directly with the CEO, CCO and Virtual Depot Lead to build Curo from the ground up, together:

This is a Business Development focused role, solely responsible for identifying existing EV charging and parking assets in response to fleet requests in specific geographies.
Once you’ve identified the assets, you will package them for the Virtual Depot Lead to continue conversion, alongside likely continuing conversion yourself too.
You will also work on strategy and operations, as well as literally anything that comes up in between, there is no task too big or too small.
Your day could include data collection, cold calls or emails, talking to our largest customers or flying to an obscure US city to conduct a site search.
Interact daily with customers - intently listen and thoughtfully learn how we can continue to solve our partners’ problems.
Identify, manage and onboard customers which can range massively from huge corporations to family run businesses.
Support the team in all outreach, data capture and analysis exercises.
Use your intuition to act quickly by being proactive, learning with the team.

Who are we looking for?

You take an empathetic, collaborative approach to creation. We’re obsessed with our customers, their feedback and experience.
You take extreme autonomy and operate with a high level of ownership and pride because you’re deeply self-motivated.
You are resilient with a growth mindset - being able to fall, learn, dust yourself off and get back up again.
Above all else, you have a strong intuition and ask for forgiveness rather than permission.
