About the Opportunity

EVEREC is partnering with a leading European EV charging infrastructure operator to recruit an Expansion Manager for Southern Spain.

Our client is an established and rapidly growing business at the forefront of Europe's transition to sustainable mobility. With ambitious expansion plans across Spain and wider European markets, the company is investing in its charging network and seeking a commercially driven professional to identify, secure and develop new locations.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone with experience in site acquisition, property development, commercial real estate, retail expansion or EV charging infrastructure to play a key role in developing a high-quality network of charging locations.

You do not need to come directly from the EV charging industry. We are particularly interested in candidates with a strong track record of identifying commercially attractive locations, building relationships with property owners and negotiating site agreements.

Key Responsibilities

• Identify, evaluate and secure new locations for EV charging infrastructure across Southern Spain.
• Develop a strong pipeline of commercially attractive sites, including retail destinations, hospitality venues, commercial properties and roadside locations.
• Build and maintain relationships with landowners, property owners, developers, retail groups, municipalities and other relevant stakeholders.
• Lead commercial discussions and negotiate agreements to secure new sites.
• Assess potential locations based on accessibility, visibility, traffic, customer demand, commercial viability and long-term growth potential.
• Manage site acquisition opportunities from initial identification and outreach through commercial negotiation and agreement.
• Work closely with internal development, technical, legal and operational teams to progress opportunities towards delivery.
• Conduct market research, competitor analysis and location assessments to identify priority expansion areas.
• Develop relationships with local authorities, property networks and strategic partners to support multi-site expansion.
• Maintain accurate pipeline reporting, commercial forecasts and progress updates.
• Represent the business professionally in meetings, site visits and negotiations across the region.

Candidate Requirements

• Proven experience in business development, site acquisition, real estate, retail expansion, property partnerships or a related commercial development role.
• Demonstrable success identifying new locations, negotiating commercial agreements or developing multi-site opportunities.
• Strong negotiation, stakeholder management and relationship-building skills.
• Commercial awareness, including the ability to evaluate location suitability and investment opportunities.
• A proactive, entrepreneurial approach with the ability to build a pipeline of opportunities independently.
• Excellent communication and organisational skills.
• Professional fluency in Spanish and English.
• Willingness to travel regularly across Southern Spain.
• Full driving licence.
• Experience in EV charging, electric mobility, renewable energy or infrastructure development.
• Background in commercial real estate, retail property, hospitality, roadside services or multi-site network expansion.
• Established relationships with landowners, property groups, developers, retail operators or municipalities.
• Experience negotiating lease agreements, land-use agreements or long-term commercial partnerships.
• Understanding of planning, permitting or infrastructure development processes.
• Experience assessing and securing sites suitable for large-scale commercial infrastructure.

Working Arrangements

This position offers a flexible working model, with candidates considered from Madrid, Seville, Málaga and surrounding areas.

During the first two to three months, the successful candidate will be expected to attend the Madrid office more regularly for onboarding, training and integration with the wider team.

Following onboarding, the working arrangement will become more flexible, with attendance at the Madrid office and travel across Southern Spain depending on business requirements and the candidate's location.

The role involves regular site visits and in-person meetings with property owners, partners and other stakeholders.

Salary & Benefits

• Competitive base salary, generally €45,000–€65,000, depending on experience and seniority.
• Flexibility for exceptional candidates with particularly relevant expansion or site acquisition experience.
• Annual company performance bonus of approximately 15%.
• Company car with business and personal use.
• Flexible hybrid working arrangements.
• Opportunity to contribute directly to the growth of a major European EV charging network.
• International working environment with significant long-term growth opportunities.
• The chance to support the transition to cleaner, more sustainable transport.

Why Apply?

This is an opportunity to join an ambitious European business operating in one of the fastest-growing areas of the energy and mobility sectors.

You will have a direct impact on the expansion of EV charging infrastructure across Southern Spain, taking ownership of new commercial opportunities and helping secure locations that will support the future of electric mobility.

The position offers genuine autonomy, exposure to strategic commercial negotiations and the opportunity to grow alongside an expanding international organisation.

If you have experience in site acquisition, commercial property, retail expansion, real estate partnerships or business development, we would be interested in speaking with you.
