Lead, Retail Go-To-Market - GM Energy

Description

We are seeking a Retail Go-To-Market Lead to drive the design, launch, and continuous optimization of GM Energy products and programs. This role will work cross-functionally and in close coordination with GM vehicle divisions and brands to lead go-to-market strategy and execution for chargers, adapters, home energy equipment, and related services in the U.S. You will ensure brand-consistent integration and clear attribution, channel readiness, retail campaigns, and ongoing lifecycle management that are grounded in data, experimentation, and learning.

The Role

You will help shape and test new program constructs, integrate product and brand messaging, design and track incentive and promotional programs, and build analytics and reporting that inform how we allocate and optimize spend against key performance objectives (e.g., penetration rates, attachment rates, CSAT, ROI). You will be expected to persist from concept through scaling—iterating based on insights to continually improve performance.

Success will be measured by sales performance, program and campaign effectiveness, quality of insights and recommendations, and your contribution to the growth of GM Energy’s presence and brand in the market.

This position reports to the Group Manager – GM Energy Retail Go-To-Market.

Analytics, performance tracking, and reporting

Assist in developing and presenting GM internal leadership updates on program performance and sales tracking, including preparation of scorecards and reporting.

Partner with analytics teams to build and refine dashboards, views, and narratives that translate data into clear insights and recommended actions.

Monitor performance vs. KPIs—penetration, attachment, CSAT, conversion, mix, and ROI by channel—and drive follow-through on optimization opportunities.

Sales enablement and internal advocacy

Develop resources (decks, one-pagers, FAQs, talking points) to enhance Field, Dealer, e-commerce, Direct & Partner sales channel understanding of GM Energy products and services.

Act as a persistent advocate for GM Energy within the broader GM organization, helping teams understand program objectives, performance, and next steps.

Special projects and strategic initiatives
