About Modo Energy The energy transition is the biggest infrastructure buildout in human history. Modo Energy is the data platform at the centre of it. We build the benchmarking, forecasting, and valuation tools that the world's most serious energy investors, developers, and operators depend on to make decisions. If a battery gets financed, built, or traded anywhere in the world, there's a good chance Modo data was in the room. Founded in 2019, we're 80+ people across London, New York, Sydney, and Madrid; $30M Series B, AI-native, and moving fast. This is a rare chance to join a category-defining company at the moment it's scaling globally. RECRUITING AT MODO ENERGY Modo Energy is the data and analytics platform for the battery energy storage industry. We help developers, investors, operators, and utilities understand and act on the battery storage markets that are reshaping how electricity systems work. We're growing fast, across every function, and the bar for who joins goes up every quarter, not down. Recruiting is one of the highest-leverage things happening at Modo right now, and the person in this seat will shape who this company becomes. THE ROLE We're hiring a Recruiter to own full-cycle hiring across multiple functions and geographies - commercial, analyst, and operational roles today, with the mix evolving as we scale. You'll work closely with hiring managers and leadership (including direct partnership with our CEO on senior searches). The best person for this role can map a market, build a real point of view on who's in the top decile of a given talent pool, and run a process disciplined enough to close them - while keeping pipeline hygiene, candidate experience, and hiring-manager communication tight throughout. WHAT YOU'LL DO Sourcing and market mapping * Partner closely with technical leadership to deeply understand hiring needs while providing strategic guidance on recruiting best practices * Build and nurture a strong pipeline of talent * Lead strategic sourcing initiatives to engage top-tier, passive candidates across various technical disciplines * Use AI as a core part of your daily workflow: for research, candidate identification, personalized outreach drafting, call summarization, and surfacing signal from messy data. This isn't optional or a novelty at Modo; it's how the role works * Stay on top of market trends, comp benchmarks, and where the talent pool is moving Full-cycle ownership * Own the entire recruiting lifecycle from intake through offer close, across our functions and geographies * Run intake meetings with hiring managers and interviewers to build a shared, precise picture of the role and evaluation criteria before sourcing starts * Ask first-principles and self-starter questions live in interviews - we're evaluating how people think, not just what they've done * Push back when a search is mis-scoped, surface comp reality early, and turn hiring-manager wishlists into a concrete profile within days * Close candidates who have competing offers - build conviction, sequence references well, and win on substance Process, tools, and experience * Maintain the ATS (GreenHouse) with real pipeline discipline, so reporting and funnel metrics are trustworthy * Run debriefs after each hire (and each miss) and feed learnings back into how we hire * Own creation of job descriptions and interview scorecards * Manage relationships with our external recruiting agency partners * Deliver a fair, transparent, and fast candidate experience - clear feedback, offers that move in days rather than weeks * Support employer brand work, campus/lateral recruiting events, and other ad-hoc talent projects * Contribute to comp benchmarking and broader improvements to how Modo evaluates talent WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR The Essentials * 2+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, somewhere high-growth or fast-paced where the bar was genuinely non-negotiable * A startup background - you know how to hire well without much infrastructure behind you * Comfort using AI in your day-to-day recruiting workflow already, or genuine eagerness to make it core to how you work * Demonstrated closing skill against competing offers * High-agency operating mode: you own outcomes, flag problems early, and don't wait to be told what's next * Excellent written communication - your outbound and candidate updates are part of the work product and should read that way * Comfortable in a fast-moving, high-autonomy, low-process environment across multiple time zones and countries * Based in NY and able to work hybrid, in-office Tuesday–Thursday Nice to Have * Experience recruiting commercial or GTM roles (AE, AM, CSM) at a high-growth SaaS, data, fintech, or energy company * Experience recruiting analyst or technical roles alongside commercial ones * Experience building or contributing to an AI-augmented sourcing or screening workflow * Familiarity with Greenhouse, plus LinkedIn Recruiter, Notion, and Slack * Experience hiring across multiple countries simultaneously WHAT COMES WITH THE ROLE The salary range for this role is $160-180k * A seat at the table on hiring decisions that genuinely shape the company - not a coordinator role * Full autonomy: we expect people to operate independently within a few months, not to be managed step by step * Direct, honest feedback culture - the best argument wins regardless of seniority * Compensation benchmarked to pay top of your personal market, reviewed twice a year * All employees receive share options * Hybrid working, in-office Tuesday-Thursday, across our London, New York, Madrid, and Sydney offices * A small, high-leverage team where your work is visible and matters immediately EQUAL OPPORTUNITY & LEGAL Modo Energy is an equal opportunity employer. We evaluate all candidates on merit and fit for the role, regardless of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other status protected by applicable law. If you need a reasonable accommodation at any stage of the interview process, let us know. What You Can Expect From Us At Modo Energy, we believe that exceptional work deserves exceptional reward. We're a high-performance team; ambitious, collaborative, and genuinely motivated by the scale of what we're trying to build. You'll have real ownership from day one, work alongside some of the brightest people in the industry, and be part of a company that's defining a new category in the global energy market. We're hybrid: everyone works Tuesday to Thursday in office, with Monday and Friday flexible. We offer top-of-market compensation, equity for every employee, and the space to take your career wherever you want it to go. We're looking for people who want to do the best work of their careers. If that's you, we want to talk.
ABOUT US PhysicsX is a deep-tech company with roots in numerical physics and Formula One, dedicated to accelerating hardware innovation at the speed of software. We are building an AI-driven simulation software stack for engineering and manufacturing across advanced industries. By enabling high-fidelity, multi-physics simulation through AI inference across the entire engineering lifecycle, PhysicsX unlocks new levels of optimization and automation in design, manufacturing, and operations — empowering engineers to push the boundaries of possibility. Our customers include leading innovators in Aerospace & Defense, Materials, Energy, Semiconductors, and Automotive. We're looking for a proactive, organized, and adaptable Executive Assistant to join our New York office. Although you'll be the only EA in our New York office, taking over a well-established role from a colleague who has recently moved into a different position at PhysicsX, the role is highly networked — spanning our global EA team in London and Singapore, and the assistants of our most senior customer and partner contacts at companies like Microsoft, NVIDIA, and Siemens. While the foundations are in place, there's real scope to make this role your own — shaping how executive support works in our North American team and leaving your mark on it. Reporting to our London-based Head of People Operations & Data, you'll provide day-to-day executive support to our Managing Director, North America, alongside 1–2 other senior team members. This is a true thought-partner role — you'll act as an informed deputy for the people you support, often making judgment calls on their behalf and representing them in interactions with customers, partners, and internal colleagues. PhysicsX is a fast-moving, growing organization, and this role will evolve with it. We're looking for someone who sees that as an opportunity rather than a challenge — someone curious, flexible, and energized by variety. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KEY RESPONSIBILITIES * Act as a true thought partner to the Managing Director, North America and 1–2 other senior team members — anticipating needs, thinking strategically on their behalf, and enabling them to focus on what matters most. * Own diary management end-to-end: hold the line on competing priorities, make active trade-off calls between customer meetings, internal commitments, board/investor asks, and team time, and bring the principal in only when a real judgment call is needed. * Run logistics end-to-end for the meetings and events we host out of New York — from small senior customer dinners to larger partner events at the office (e.g., joint events with NVIDIA, Microsoft, Siemens). Own the experience, not just the booking. * Own complex domestic and international travel — frequent multi-city trips, last-minute re-routing, customer-site visits, and trade events (e.g. industry conferences). Build the muscle to rebook and reshape an itinerary inside an hour when plans change. * Ensure timely processing of expenses and timesheets on behalf of supported principals. * Work closely with the global EA team, collaborating on cross-regional scheduling and covering for colleagues in the US and UK during absences. * Build and maintain working relationships with the assistants of senior customer and partner contacts — coordinating scheduling across multiple offices, anticipating their principals' needs, and being a reliable counterpart they trust. * Prepare for high-stakes meetings — pulling together briefing materials, agendas, attendee bios, and pre-reads in advance of customer, partner, and executive engagements (including CEO and Board-level conversations). ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KEY SKILLS REQUIRED * Experience in an Executive Assistant role, ideally in a fast-paced, international, or high-growth environment. * A natural network-builder — comfortable picking up the phone with another EA they've never met to solve a scheduling problem, and building the kind of rapport that makes complicated multi-stakeholder meetings happen. * Proactive and strategic — able to think ahead, understand context, and act as a trusted extension of the leaders they support. * Skilled at diary management with the confidence to push back, problem-solve, and unblock when needed. * Comfortable being the sole EA in a region, taking ownership and operating with autonomy while staying closely connected to a global team. * Genuinely flexible and comfortable with a role that will evolve — energized by variety and the opportunity to shape things rather than unsettled by it. * Comfortable with a role that occasionally requires support outside standard hours — flexibility is genuinely a two-way street here. * Excellent communicator across written, verbal, and digital channels. * Impeccable discretion — you'll see commercially sensitive customer information, partnership terms, financial and personal details, and confidential internal discussions. We need someone whose default is to volunteer nothing and whose judgment on what to share with whom is consistently right * Strong judgment under ambiguity — comfortable making decisions on the principal's behalf when the principal isn't reachable, and knowing the difference between a decision to escalate and a decision to make. * Experience working across time zones is a strong advantage. * Already uses AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, similar) as part of their daily workflow — drafting communications, summarizing long threads, prepping briefings, organizing notes. We expect this to be second nature, not a stretch. * Proficient in Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint) — required. Experience with travel booking systems also expected. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHAT WE OFFER Work with a high-caliber, collaborative team of engineers, scientists, and operators who care deeply about doing great work, and about helping each other get better. We come from diverse backgrounds, but we share a commitment to operating at the highest level and addressing some of the most complex challenges out there. We also believe in balancing focused, ambitious work with a life beyond it. Our hybrid model blends time together in our New York office with work-from-home days, giving you the flexibility to work sustainably while staying connected in person. If you’re ambitious, thoughtful, and driven by impact, you’ll feel at home. Salary range for this position is estimated to be between $100,000 - $125,000 based on experience and demonstrated ability to deliver at level. Seniority will be assessed throughout our interview process. And it doesn’t stop there … 🚀 Equity options - share meaningfully in the company you’re helping to build. 💰 5% contribution to 401(k) - build long-term security with a strong retirement plan. 🍽️ Free team lunch 1x/week - good food, great company, and space to connect. 🏥 Private health insurance – comprehensive cover for you, offering total peace of mind. 👶 Enhanced parental leave – 3 months full pay paternity and 6 months full pay maternity leave, to provide extra flexibility during the moments that matter most. ☀️ 20 days of Annual Leave (+ Public Holidays) - because taking time to rest matters. 📈 Personal development – dedicated support for learning, development, and leveling up over time. 💪 Gympass / Wellhub (subsidized) – for you and up to 3 family members, supporting both physical and mental wellbeing. 💳 Flexible Spending Account (FSA) – set aside pre-tax dollars for eligible healthcare expenses. 🔎 Watch this space, we’re continuing to build this as we grow… We value diversity and are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of sex, race, religion, ethnicity, nationality, disability, age, sexual orientation or gender identity.
