We are looking for a strategic, result-focused, entrepreneurial Sales Manager who will lead and realise our growth ambition in the German-speaking market of Power Grids and support the Energy Transition.
The Power Grids business area supports utilities, system operators, industrial asset owners, renewable developers, investors, regulators and technology providers in addressing some of the most critical challenges facing the energy sector today. From grid expansion and modernization to digitalization, congestion management, flexibility markets and system operations, we help our customers build reliable, resilient and future-ready power networks. With a strong presence across Northern Europe, DNV combines deep technical expertise with strategic advisory services to accelerate the energy transition. Germany represents one of our most important growth markets, and we are now looking for a commercially driven leader to further strengthen our position.
We are seeking an experienced and highly connected Business Development Director to lead our growth strategy in the German-speaking Power Grids market, with a primary focus on Germany.
This is not a traditional sales role.
You will act as a market strategist, industry ambassador, trusted advisor and commercial leader, identifying future opportunities and translating market developments into sustainable business growth. You will play a pivotal role in defining our market approach while building long-term relationships with senior executives, system operators, utilities, industrial customers and key decision-makers involved in Germany's energy transition.
As a recognized expert within your field, you will help position DNV as the partner of choice for grid modernization, digital system operations, congestion management, grid optimization and transformation initiatives.
Preferred location is Dresden, Germany. Other locations in Germany, such as Hamburg and Bonn, are negotiable.
This is a unique opportunity to take a leading role in one of Europe's most dynamic energy markets. You will have the platform, brand and technical expertise of DNV behind you while enjoying the freedom to shape strategy, influence market direction and create lasting impact for customers driving the energy transition.
