Job description

Manager EMEA North, Infrastructure Energy Team

Job ID: 10451218 | Amazon Energy Eoraip Limited

The Manager, Infrastructure Energy, EMEA North is responsible for powering AWS's data centres across northern and central Europe through the full lifecycle of power — setting the strategy, originating and securing capacity, delivering grid connections, and managing compliance with national grid codes and regulations. This senior role requires deep commercial and technical energy expertise, strong people management capability, and the ability to influence outcomes across internal teams, utilities, partners, and regulatory authorities in a fast‑paced environment. Operating at both strategic and executional levels, the role leads a team of 6–8 professionals who support new site/region selection, manage utility relationships, and drive policy reform advocacy to unlock capacity and remove barriers to power delivery across the region.

Infrastructure Services (AIS) AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

Key job responsibilities

• Programme & Delivery Leadership: Provide executive oversight for power infrastructure planning, design, and delivery across multiple concurrent grid interconnection projects. Collaborate with internal stakeholders — Design Engineering, Construction, Commissioning, Operations, Finance, Legal, and Real Estate — to deliver grid connections on time and to standard. Balance hands‑on technical engagement with portfolio‑level prioritisation, risk management, and delivery governance.
• Utility, Partner & Stakeholder Management: Lead senior‑level utility engagement to secure power capacity, manage interconnections, and mitigate delivery risk. Build and maintain relationships with technical consultants to support power origination and delivery. Drive policy reform advocacy to unlock capacity and remove barriers to power delivery across the region.
• Financial, Risk & Performance Oversight: Own regional accountability for energy budgets, schedules, and performance KPIs across the project portfolio. Identify and manage technical, commercial, and delivery risks — escalating where required and implementing mitigation strategies proactively. Support capital planning, investment cases, and executive decision‑making with data‑driven recommendations.
• Leadership & Capability Development: Lead, mentor, and develop a team of 6–8 professionals, providing technical direction and fostering a high‑performance culture. Build regional energy capability to support rapid scaling and contribute to global infrastructure considerations through matrixed collaboration.

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field
• Experience in procurement, budgeting, forecasting, or asset management
• Experience presenting to both technical and non‑technical executive audiences
• Travel up to 20% of the time
• 10+ years of experience in the energy sector, including demonstrated progression into management or regional leadership roles
• Proven experience in utility engagement, and power origination & securing or grid interconnection delivery across multiple jurisdictions
• Technical knowledge in grids and HV/MV power infrastructure
• Fluent in English; German and/or French, highly desirable

Preferred Qualifications

• Advanced degree, or MBA
• Experience in data centers, infrastructure service providers, or related technology companies
• Experience building and leading teams in a matrix/managed culture
• Deep understanding of energy regulatory frameworks across northern and central European markets
• Experience driving energy policy reform or regulatory advocacy
• Commercially astute, with experience in cost optimisation without compromising reliability
