We are Sila, a next-generation battery materials company. Our mission is to power the world’s transition to clean energy. To create this future, our team is building a better lithium-ion battery from the inside out today. We engineer and manufacture ground-breaking battery materials that significantly increase the energy density of batteries, while reducing their size and weight. The result? Smaller more powerful batteries that can unlock innovation in consumer devices and accelerate the mass adoption of electric cars to eliminate our dependence on fossil fuels. We're tackling one of the biggest challenges of our time every day, and together we're redefining what's possible. Are you ready to be a part of a team committed to changing the world?
As a leader, you will own and drive many activities supporting fundraising, including Series(x) private equity financings, future public equity financings, Department of Energy grants and loan applications, and federal and state tax incentive applications. You will work closely with various Executive staff members and subject matter experts across the company.
Critical to the success of the business today is ensuring the execution of a high confidence funding plan to meet Business plan objectives. You are a strategic thinker, an analytical problem solver, very organized with attention to details, relentless in meeting deliverables or deadlines, very responsive to investor inquiries, and able to adapt with a rapidly changing organization. In a Startup company like Sila, you will be expected to wear multiple hats, so you are a versatile leader willing to lean in as business needs change.
You collaborate to guide financial decision-making and invest time in building long lasting relationships with investors and partners. You have an excellent command of written and spoken English with experience in public speaking, writing grant applications or writing industry research papers. You will work on a few high impact special projects from time to time.
This role will be onsite at the Alameda campus and might require some travel. You will report directly to Sila’s CFO and work with the CFO to set up and execute a multi-year funding plan including the plan for the potential IPO. Success in this role creates a solid path to the Head of Investor Relations post IPO of the company.
