Energy Intelligence Associate: Editor Designate
Future Editor / Platform Lead – UK Solar, Battery Storage & Flexibility Markets
Bath / Bristol / Remote Hybrid
Starting project-based → pathway to permanent leadership role after probation
We are building something ambitious.
Not another consultancy.
Not another corporate “energy newsletter.”
We are building a next-generation intelligence and media platform covering:
- battery storage
- solar
- flexibility markets
- VPPs (Virtual Power Plants)
- G99/DNO intelligence
- installer economics
- energy trading
- distributed energy infrastructure
- the future of the UK grid
The UK energy system is undergoing one of the largest industrial transformations in decades.
This is your chance to get extremely close to it.
About the role
We are looking for an intelligent, curious, AI-native all-rounder to help build an industry intelligence platform under the direction of founder BBN Energy.
Initially, the role is focused on:
- helping launch and manage a new industry website
- creating social posts and industry commentary
- helping produce a weekly installer and battery industry newsletter
- researching major developments in UK solar, storage and flexibility markets
- tracking DNO/G99 developments
- monitoring OEMs, batteries, tariffs and market shifts
- creating simple graphics/charts using AI tools
- helping shape the tone and direction of the platform
This is not a “marketing assistant” role.
It is much closer to:
- junior editor
- intelligence analyst
- market researcher
- startup operator
- AI-assisted publisher
You will work directly with the founder and help shape the voice of a growing platform in one of the fastest-moving sectors in the UK economy.
What we are looking for
You do NOT need deep energy industry experience.
But you probably ARE:
- obsessed with AI tools and new technology
- commercially curious
- interested in energy transition, climate, infrastructure or markets
- a strong writer
- fast-moving and self-starting
- good at synthesising information
- comfortable using ChatGPT/Claude/Perplexity etc
- organised and reliable
- interested in building something from the ground up
Bonus points if you have experience with:
- LinkedIn/X content
- newsletters
- Substack/Ghost/Webflow/WordPress
- Canva/Figma
- journalism
- economics
- energy/climate policy
- engineering
- data visualisation
- startup environments
The opportunity
This sector is exploding.
Battery storage, flexible energy systems and AI-driven energy optimisation are becoming one of the most important growth areas in the UK economy.
The successful candidate will get:
- direct exposure to founders, investors and major industry players
- deep understanding of the UK energy transition
- practical AI workflow experience
- a visible platform and portfolio of work
- rapid responsibility if capable
- the opportunity to become Editor / Platform Manager after successful probation
We care far more about intelligence, curiosity and energy than corporate experience.
Initial structure
- Flexible/project-based initially
- Approx 10–20 hours/week to start
- Remote-friendly
- Potential pathway to full-time role after 3-month probation
- Editorial Head discussions for the right candidate as the platform grows
The vision
We want to build:
“The Bloomberg Terminal for UK distributed energy — without the pompousness.”
All the cool stuff. None of the fluff.
This is your key “in” to one of the coolest and fastest-moving sectors in the UK right now — with very strong tailwinds behind it.
To apply:
Send:
- a one sentence introduction: Written by you.
- LinkedIn/CV
- examples of content creation: if you don't have any, you're unlikely to be a fit
- a short note explaining why this sector interests you, and what you recommend for inclusion, media type, content. Set yourself apart.
No AI-generated cover letters please.
Pay: £22,420.00-£35,000.00 per year
