About Celsius We are building an employee-owned clean energy services holding company by acquiring and growing exceptional residential and commercial trades businesses. We seek to shape a portfolio of high-performing companies that create durable wealth for our employees, while accelerating the transition to a cleaner, more efficient, and more resilient energy future. We believe the skilled trades are an essential part of that transition—and that the people who build these businesses should have the opportunity to share in the value they create. Our family of companies - two that we currently own and 3-5 that we will acquire in the coming years - will operate at the key levers of decarbonizing homes and commercial buildings, including high-efficiency HVAC, electrification, EV charger installation, solar installation, and building automation. Position Summary The Vice President, Strategic Growth & Business Development will be the first senior executive hired by Celsius and will work closely with the CEO to build the growth engine, commercial capabilities, strategic partnerships, and acquisition pipeline of the company. This is a highly entrepreneurial role with responsibility across business development, commercial sales, marketing and acquisition sourcing. The VP will work directly with the leaders of our operating companies to identify and execute opportunities for profitable growth. This will include developing new customer segments and markets, strengthening sales and marketing capabilities, creating business development partnerships, identifying opportunities to expand services, and developing cross-company opportunities within the Celsius platform. At the same time, the VP will help build the pipeline of businesses that will become future members of the platform and will participate in evaluating and integrating acquisitions. Key Responsibilities Growth Strategy & Planning Partner with the CEO and portfolio company leaders to develop and execute growth strategies for individual businesses and the Celsius platform as a whole. Identify new markets, customer segments, services, technologies, and channels that can generate profitable growth. Develop strategic plans and priorities for the platform and individual portfolio companies. Identify opportunities to expand Celsius' capabilities across electrification, energy efficiency, building performance, distributed energy, energy resilience, and related services. Evaluate opportunities to enter new geographic markets and expand existing service offerings. Develop and maintain a clear view of market trends, competitive dynamics, customer needs, and emerging opportunities across our industries. Commercial Sales & Business Development Identify and develop new commercial, institutional, and channel-partner opportunities and relationships. Develop strategies to increase customer acquisition, sales conversion, retention, and lifetime customer value. Identify opportunities for portfolio companies to cross-sell complementary services to existing customers. Help develop scalable sales processes, business development systems, and performance metrics. Work with portfolio company leaders to identify high-value prospects and develop targeted approaches to winning new business. Strategic Partnerships and Market Development Build partnerships with utilities, municipalities, developers, commercial property owners, property managers and community organizations. Identify opportunities for joint marketing, customer referrals, preferred-provider relationships, channel partnerships, and other commercial arrangements. Evaluate marketing performance and identify opportunities to improve return on customer acquisition investment. Oversee digital marketing agency vendors, and develop strategies that increase awareness of Celsius' capabilities across residential and commercial markets.

Proactively identify attractive businesses that align with Celsius' strategic, financial, cultural, and mission-driven objectives. Participate in financial, operational, commercial, organizational, and cultural due diligence. Develop integration plans and lead post-acquisition growth and strategic initiatives.

Key goals across the leadership team include: Help create cultures of accountability, empowerment, and ownership. Develop systems that help employees understand the connection between customer satisfaction, growth, operational excellence, profitability, and ownership value.
