• Communicate with customers, consultants, grid operators and other external stakeholders on technical and project-related matters;
• Coordinate internally with our Sales, Business Development, Engineering, Supply Chain, Operations and Finance colleagues;
• Keep an eye on solution selling beyond the turbine itself, e.g. Balance of Plant (BoP)/grid and where relevant complementary technologies;
• Liaise with subcontractors regarding BoP requirements, including civil and electrical infrastructure, for EPC-type projects;
• Maintain accurate customer and project information in our CRM system, contribute to its continuous improvement and actively support the development of more effective CRM processes and tools;
• Support market analysis, competitor benchmarking and the continuous improvement of our commercial offering.

What do you bring?

• At least 3 years of relevant experience in a technical, commercial or sales engineering environment;
• Experience with or a strong affinity for wind energy and renewable energy technologies.
• Strong analytical skills and the ability to translate technical information into clear, commercially attractive proposals;
• Excellent communication, organizational, time management and project coordination skills;
• Fluency in English, both written and spoken. Dutch is an advantage, but not a requirement;
• Experience using CRM systems, including CRM improvements and optimizing CRM processes;
• Knowledge of, or willingness to become familiar with, relevant international standards such as IEC, IEEE and ANSI;
• A pragmatic, proactive and solution-oriented approach, with the ability to work independently and as part of an international team;
• You live in the Netherlands and have a flexible approach to working hours, including a willingness to regularly accommodate meetings outside standard Dutch office hours to collaborate effectively with our international support teams.

What do we offer?

• A challenging and varied role in an international renewable energy company;
• Close collaboration with colleagues in Europe and the United States;
• A competitive employment package with benefits;
• Opportunities for professional development and personal growth;
• A high degree of responsibility, ownership and independence;
