Description
Who are Net-Zero Geosystems?
Net-Zero Geosystems (NZG) is a start-up focused on the development of geoscientific simulation tools and services for CO storage, geothermal energy, radioactive waste disposal, subsurface energy storage (H and the permanent abandonment of oil & gas wells.
The main focus of our work is to provide robust evidence-based tools to lower the operational risks of subsurface projects.
We are driven to deliver rigorous high-quality outputs for our clients. We value transparency, honesty and compassion.
Our technology
Our principal technology predicts the probability of subsurface well integrity loss and leakages.
Ensuring a sustained long-term containment of greenhouse gases and harmful fluids is crucial for all energy geosystems.
Reliable well integrity prediction methods are key for gaining confidence in subsurface projects, obtaining regulatory & financial approval, and facilitating the implementation of economically viable measures for risk prevention and mitigation.
Specifically, our technology will dramatically improve the longevity of wells and their resilience, reduce risk, reduce environmental impact, drive costs down, enable well re-purposing and ensure permanent containment (of CO radioactive materials, methane ).
The role
- You will be driving Net-Zero Geosystems’ commercial growth and success. By working closely with the CEO, you will create and implement a sales strategy to promote the adoption of NZG’s software in the global subsurface energy sector.
- Your initial focus will be to develop a clear go-to-market strategy. Building on our market research, you will link our offering and technical capability with market needs to develop bespoke solutions and strong commercial relationships.
- Your work will include the development of sales and marketing materials to ensure that we are always representing Net-Zero Geosystems clearly and accurately.
The role will require you to create effective short-, medium- and long-term strategies to secure and maintain major commercial contracts, which will involve building and managing relationships with stakeholders, gathering their feedback and relaying it back to the rest of the team to ensure continued growth and learning in the business.
You will have a lot of autonomy over your work. As we are a growing company, the role is likely to develop and include new responsibilities.
