Description du poste

About The Role

My Client is the leading European independent energy storage provider, committed to revolutionizing the energy sector. Headquartered in Amsterdam, my client offers innovative, sustainable solutions to store and intelligently manage energy, ensuring power is used efficiently when and where it’s needed most. With a growing presence across Europe, they operate at the forefront of the energy transition, integrating large‑scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) to support grid stability, renewable energy integration, and Europe’s net‑zero goals.

Together, we are building one of Europe’s largest renewable energy portfolios, with a rapidly growing pipeline of battery energy storage systems (BESS) projects across the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Spain, Poland, and beyond. As many of these projects move into the contracting phase, we’re scaling up our procurement capability to match our ambitions.

Our procurement team has developed a smart, standardized approach to handle projects at scale; clustering contracts, streamlining processes, and driving consistency across technical, commercial, and contractual dimensions.

Your Responsibilities

• Take the lead on tenders and the negotiation of framework‑ and project agreements with major BESS suppliers for projects across Europe.
• Manage procurement processes from launch through to contract‑ready outcomes.
• Act as the central connector between our HV/BoP procurement colleagues, technical team, country‑based project developers, and BESS suppliers.
• Collaborate across workstreams: asset management, construction, origination, and finance to ensure agreements reflect the right technical requirements and commercial terms.
• Work with external legal and technical advisors to strengthen our contractual position.
• Manage due diligence processes for the contracts under your control.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with both existing and future suppliers.
• Keep procurement database up to date with supplier assessments, technology benchmarking, and market trend analyses.

Your Profile

You’re a structured, commercially sharp procurement professional with a strong contractual focus who thrives in a fast‑moving, international environment.

You Bring

• Around 5 years of relevant experience in a procurement or contract management role, ideally in the energy sector.
• Experience with BESS contracting is a real plus; alternatively experience with wind turbine or other large‑scale energy equipment contracting is highly valued.
• Solid knowledge of contract frameworks such as FIDIC and UAV‑GC.
• Proven ability to negotiate complex contracts on both legal and commercial terms.
• A university degree in a relevant field.
• Fluency in English; Dutch and/or German is a bonus.

What We Offer

• A dynamic, informal culture where your ideas are heard and valued.
• Real ownership and room to grow, this isn’t a box‑ticking role.
• The chance to make a tangible impact on Europe’s renewable energy future.
• A front‑row seat in one of the fastest‑growing markets in the energy sector.
• A competitive salary and benefits package.
