About the job
Join Spruce as an Account Executive and be a part of our exciting journey as we revolutionize the heat pump installation process! In just over a year, we've grown from zero to 600 customers, achieving what many have strived for without extensive marketing efforts. We're seeking an extraordinary individual to join our expanding commercial team, manage an influx of inbound requests, and develop a professional sales strategy to propel our next growth phase.
About Spruce
Spruce is at the forefront of addressing the UK's carbon emissions, particularly from home heating, which accounts for nearly 20% of the total. With the urgent need to phase out gas and oil boilers, heat pumps emerge as a viable alternative, capable of transforming 1 kW of electricity into 3-5 kW of heat. However, the existing installation process is slow and cumbersome, hindering the growth of installers and discouraging gas engineers from venturing into heat pump installations. We're here to change that.
We've created a comprehensive platform for heat pump installers, streamlining the entire installation journey, from initial inquiries to compliance paperwork, allowing them to focus on high-quality installations and exceptional customer service. Since our inception in early 2024, we've significantly impacted installation businesses, suppliers, and manufacturers across the UK by reducing job time by half, doubling sales conversions, and enhancing profitability.
With a strong seed funding round secured last year and robust customer demand, we are scaling our team to amplify our impact and expand beyond heat pumps, aiming to create an integrated operating system for the entire home renewables supply chain.
