As a Senior/Principal Consultant in the Energy Markets and Strategy team, your responsibilities include:

• Developing and delivering advisory services to address customer challenges, acting as project manager.
• Leading expertise on services related to green molecules from biogas, PtX, or (biogenic) CO2.
• Proactively leading business development through proposal development and fostering relationships with clients.
• Collaborating with and leading colleagues and experts on projects.
• Creating growth opportunities for less experienced team members by driving new sales.
• Providing unique market insights and knowledge to clients.
• Joining a dynamic and collaborative team.

A career at DNV offers an extraordinary opportunity to develop personally and professionally while making a global impact.

• Participation in interesting national and international projects.
• Being part of a global company with over 15,000 employees in more than 100 countries, headquartered in Norway.
