As the world moves towards a greener future, the demand for raw materials—minerals and metals—is set to increase immensely over the next three decades. Europe faces a critical challenge in securing a stable supply of these essential resources. This challenge is where EIT RawMaterials steps in.

EIT RawMaterials is at the forefront of driving innovation and sustainability in the raw materials sector. As an Innovation Community within the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), we collaborate with over 300 partners across industry, academia, and research institutes. Together, we forge dynamic, long-term partnerships to develop innovative solutions that meet Europe's growing demand for raw materials.

About the Role

On behalf of its partners, EIT RawMaterials manages data related to raw materials, advanced materials, and the Circular Economy. We analyse how our investment portfolio (particularly tech up-scaling projects, startups, and junior miners) relates to commodity markets, supply-demand forecasts, innovations and technology developments, downstream sector needs, and geopolitical developments. We aim to further develop this analysis and offer our partners unique insights into complex and fast-evolving raw materials value chains. As a public-private partnership, we support the European Commission in dedicated on-demand analyses and projects, particularly regarding Critical Raw Materials and respective developments.

We seek a senior expert and team manager to take the role of Head of Business Intelligence (m / f / d), reporting to the Innovation and Product Development Director.
