Job Description

At Vestas, sustainability is integrated across our entire value chain, going beyond turbine manufacturing, installation, and service. We focus on improving environmental performance while creating value for customers, communities, and the global energy transition. Sustainability is central to our corporate strategy.

You will join Group Sustainability, the global function driving Vestas' sustainability strategy, reporting, compliance, communication, and key projects. The team collaborates across multiple functions, including Sales, Service, Procurement, Finance, and Power Solutions.

This role is closely connected to customer and tender activities in Northern & Central Europe (NCE), while aligning with global strategy and developments.

Our key focus areas include decarbonisation, circularity, and biodiversity. Working with global and regional stakeholders, you will ensure consistent, credible, and commercially relevant sustainability messaging aligned with Vestas' ambitions.

Responsibilities

Reporting to Group Sustainability, you have the opportunity to shape Vestas' future competitiveness and value offerings by translating sustainability into customer value, stronger tender responses, and sharper market positioning across Northern & Central Europe. In addition, your responsibilities will cover:

• Drive the integration of sustainability into NCE tenders and sales dialogues, ensuring all customer-facing materials, data, and messaging reflect Vestas' sustainability leadership
• Advise customers and key account, sales, and bid teams on sustainability differentiators, including low-emission materials, decarbonised operations, circularity, biodiversity, and site-specific reporting capabilities
• Stay informed on relevant sustainability policy and tender developments in NCE, translating implications into customer-facing guidance and commercial positioning
• Support account-specific sustainability value propositions for high-priority customers, including tailored messaging and materials for strategic customer engagements
• Maintain close coordination with Group Sustainability and relevant regional functions to ensure customer commitments, tender responses, and external positioning are consistent, credible, and commercially useful

• Master's in natural sciences, environmental engineering, environmental economics, sustainable business, or a related sustainability field
• Strong commercial profile, with experience translating sustainability topics into business value, customer messaging, and practical decision support
• Experience working with EU and UK sustainability policy and regulatory frameworks relevant to NCE markets, such as ETS/CBAM, EU Critical and Strategic Raw Materials Act, NZIA, and emerging non-price criteria in renewable energy auctions
• Experience supporting complex stakeholder processes, preferably involving sales, tenders, account teams, customers, or cross-functional project teams
• Fluent in verbal and written English

Competencies

On the more soft-skill side, we hope your profile matches the following:

• Commercially minded and able to connect sustainability with customer needs, tender competitiveness, and market positioning
• Possess comprehensive quantitative and qualitative analytical skills
• Great ability to communicate clearly, effectively, and persuasively with both commercial and sustainability audiences
• Ability to engage and collaborate with a wide range of stakeholders across sales, bid, account, sustainability, and technical functions
• Pragmatic, able to adjust to diverse situations, and capable of actively promoting problem-solving whilst keeping high ethical and compliance standards

What we offer

In this position, you will be able to put your environmental sustainability and commercial skills to the test in a creative, global, and culturally diverse team working closely with customers and market opportunities across NCE. You will have the opportunity to support Vestas' position in the fast-changing energy sector by turning sustainability into concrete commercial value, with strong perspectives on personal and professional development.
