• 5+ years' experience in BESS procurement or sales for utility-scale projects across multiple countries
• Proven skills in commercial negotiation, risk assessment, and contract management
• Strong technical understanding of energy storage systems
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills
• Fluency in English (other languages such as Polish, Italian, Swedish, or Finnish are a plus)

You are:

• Proactive, commercially driven, and solutions-oriented
• Structured, yet flexible, with a collaborative mindset
