Commercial Director, Power & Electrification

Job Description

Do you want to help shape the commercial future of one of Europe's fastest-growing renewable energy advisory firms? We are looking for a new Commercial Director to co-lead our Power & Electrification sub-division.

Blue Power Partners is a global consultancy and project development company dedicated to developing renewable energy. We aim to accelerate the green transition by challenging the view of what is possible to force a sustainable change.

About the Job

You will join Power & Electrification, one of the largest and most complex sub-divisions in our Technical Advisory division. As Commercial Director, you will operate as an equal Co-Lead alongside our Technical Director under BPP's Leadership in Pairs model, sharing accountability for a team of more than 80 specialists across APAC, EMEA, and AMER.

You will play a vital role as the external face of Power & Electrification - owning client origination, market presence, fee negotiation, and brand positioning. Your role is to convert our technical credibility into signed mandates, while staying hands-on and personally engaged in client delivery on selected strategic accounts.

Your main responsibilities

• Develop and execute the client origination plan for our full Power & Electrification offering, with clear pipeline targets across Tier 1 and Tier 2 markets
• Take direct technology ownership of Wind (onshore), Data Centres, GIS/Geospatial Engineering, and Asset Data Management & Analytics (ADMA)
• Lead fee negotiation and commercial structuring across P&E client engagements
• Build key client relationships and grow them into multi-year advisory mandates
• Share joint P&L accountability for the sub-division with our Technical Director, while personally staying hands-on in client delivery

Your daily work will be from our office in Aalborg, or from Copenhagen, with a flexible, hybrid work environment and regular international travel of approximately 15-25%.

About You

Success in this role depends on your ability to combine deep technical credibility with strong commercial instincts, and to operate confidently as an equal partner in a paired leadership model.

You bring a track record of personally originating and negotiating client engagements in renewable energy or infrastructure advisory, and you are comfortable representing BPP at C-suite, investor, and industry level. Technical breadth matters just as much as your network - this is not a pure commercial or Business Development role.

With the right balance of professional skills and a personal mindset, you will get a unique opportunity to grow and develop in our team.

Preferably, we expect you to enrich our business with the following experience and personal traits:

• An engineering degree (Electrical, Power Systems, Energy Engineering, or similar); commercial credentials such as an MBA or advanced negotiation training are an advantage
• A demonstrated client origination track record in renewable energy or infrastructure advisory, with an existing network at decision-maker level across Tier 1 and Tier 2 markets
• Demonstrable technical credibility across Solar PV, BESS, and grid systems, plus direct expertise in at least one of: onshore Wind, Data Centres, Geospatial Engineering, or Asset Data Management & Analytics (ADMA)
• Comfortable operating as a peer to a Technical Director under a paired leadership model, sharing P&L accountability and decision authority
• Fluent English required; Danish is an advantage but not required. An existing right to work in Denmark is required at the point of application
