Construction Project Manager
Our client is one of Europe's fastest-growing independent energy storage businesses. They build, own and operate large-scale battery storage across several European markets, delivering storage as a service to utilities, grid operators, energy traders and large industrial users. Backed by leading banks and industrial partners, they are turning a substantial pipeline into operating assets.
In Germany, they are scaling a dedicated project realization team from the ground up. The pipeline is real and funded, with around eleven projects due to be realized by next summer and several already at or near financial close.
Why they are hiring
The German delivery team is growing from three internal project professionals towards eight to ten. They are looking for a capable project manager to take ownership across active sites, run smaller work packages independently, and support senior PMs on larger high-voltage projects.

- Manage and recover project timetables across multiple active construction sites
- Support senior project managers on larger projects (100MW and above, some at 300 to 400MW and high voltage)
- Coordinate contractors, suppliers and internal engineering and grid teams
- Engage municipalities, authorities and local stakeholders in German
- Keep projects moving with minimal oversight in a fast-paced, low-bureaucracy environment
What we're looking for
- Three years or more of project management experience, ideally in renewable energy
- A degree in renewables, electrical engineering or civil engineering
- A solid understanding of electricity and power systems
- German to C1 or above, plus fluent English
- A genuine self-starter who stays motivated and organised without close management
- Confidence communicating with mayors, officials and external stakeholders
- Direct battery storage or grid-connected infrastructure delivery experience
- Exposure to high-voltage projects
- Comfort operating in a startup or scale-up environment
What's on offer
- Base salary circa EUR 70,000 - 90,000, dependent on experience
- Bonus scheme
- 28 to 30 days holiday
- Hybrid working with a flexible base
- Gym membership and wider benefits
- Travel support and car allowance under review
