Jobbeschreibung

Regional Commercial & Procurement Lead - Germany

Department: DevCon

Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time

Location: Germany

Description

The Regional Commercial & Procurement Lead (Germany) will be a core commercial driver executing Field’s Balance of Plant (BoP) and 380 kV Extra-High Voltage (EHV) grid procurement strategy across our growing German standalone BESS pipeline. You will be a hands‑on commercial doer who bridges complex technical parameters with sharp negotiation grit. This is a role for an ambitious engineer and commercial negotiator who rolls up their sleeves to structure tenders, directly manage VOB/B and FIDIC contracts, and secure contractor capacity across German TSOs.

In Germany, we are expanding rapidly: Our first battery storage project of approximately 33 MWh is already live, with others to follow soon. Our goal is to establish a multi‑GW pipeline of operational assets by 2030, strengthening the stability and flexibility of the German power grid.

Our team brings together experts with experience in billion‑dollar tech startups, building energy companies, and deep expertise in energy markets. We are a dynamic, curious, and entrepreneurial team determined to make battery storage a core pillar of the energy transition—not at some distant point in the future, but right now. Our long‑term ambition is to become a leading clean energy player in Germany and Europe in the coming years, expanding our portfolio beyond battery storage.

Key Responsibilities

Main responsibilities:

German Sourcing & BoP Execution

• Hands-on Procurement: Own and execute end-to-end procurement across German BoP packages and long‑lead equipment (380kV/110kV transformers), from drafting RFQs and structuring tender packs to driving direct price negotiations.
• Commercial Engineering & Estimation: Partner with technical teams to optimize BoP cost structures, reverse‑engineer contractor quotes, and drive CapEx efficiencies while maintaining project bankability.
• German Market Intelligence: Actively map the German EHV construction market, maintaining real‑time data on contractor availability, skilled labor inflation, and TSO lead times (TenneT, TransnetBW, Amprion, 50Hertz).

Contractual, VOB/B & Regulatory Leadership

• Direct Contract Negotiation: Lead commercial negotiations directly under VOB/B and FIDIC contract standards without relying on external legal support for standard commercial schedules.
• Interface & Claim Prevention: Establish clear Employer's Requirements and battery‑to‑substation boundaries to proactively eliminate VOB/B obstruction notices (Behinderungsanzeigen) and interface claims between BESS OEMs and BoP contractors.
• Local Content & LDES Compliance: Implement robust origin‑tracking mechanisms to ensure pipeline sourcing meets German LDES local content rules (50%+ EU/FTA origin).

Stakeholder Management & Growth

• Contractor Capacity: Secure capacity‑reservation agreements and build direct partnerships with specialized German EHV and civil contractors.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

Experience & Technical Knowledge

• Technical Foundation: Master’s degree (MSc / Dipl.-Ing.) in Engineering (Electrical, Power, Civil, or related) is required.
• Business Qualification: An MBA or equivalent commercial post‑graduate qualification is strongly preferred.
• Industry Experience: 5+ years of hands‑on experience in Renewable Energy procurement, commercial management, or power infrastructure construction within Germany / DACH region.
• German Legal & Market Knowledge: Solid understanding of German construction law (VOB/B), TSO connection processes, and regional BoP execution dynamics.
• Linguistic Capability: Fluent in German and English (written and spoken).
