Business Development Manager – Renewable Energy Software Solutions (Central Europe)

We’re supporting an innovative clean energy software company in their search for an experienced Business Development Manager to help drive the growth of their leading asset management platform for renewable energy operators.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone passionate about renewables and digitalization, with strong sales expertise and a deep understanding of the solar PV, wind, battery storage, or hybrid energy markets. You'll be helping energy producers optimize their assets and operations through cutting-edge, data-driven solutions.

The Role:
You'll take ownership of the commercial expansion strategy across Central Europe, building relationships with Independent Power Producers (IPPs), asset managers, and large-scale renewable operators. You'll manage the full sales cycle - from first engagement to closing contracts - and work closely with technical and product teams to ensure customer success.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead business development activities to grow market share for the platform across Europe.

  • Identify, approach, and convert new clients, managing the full sales cycle.

  • Build and maintain trusted relationships with senior decision-makers and technical stakeholders.

  • Shape go-to-market strategies based on market intelligence and client feedback.

  • Collaborate with internal teams (technical, product, marketing) to align solutions with client needs.

  • Maintain a strong, active pipeline and deliver on revenue growth targets.

What We're Looking For:

  • 3-5+ years' experience selling software solutions in the renewable energy sector.

  • Proven track record of winning new business and managing complex sales processes.

  • Strong knowledge of solar PV, and ideally familiarity with adjacent sectors like wind, battery storage, or hydro.

  • Ability to engage both technical experts and C-suite leaders within client organizations.

  • Client-focused approach: empathetic, consultative, and solutions-driven.

  • Well-connected in the renewable energy sector (IPPs, asset managers, O&M providers, EPCs).

  • Excellent communication, presentation, and organizational skills.

  • Technical understanding of asset management platforms is a plus.

Additional Details:

  • Location: Flexible across Central Europe, Eastern Europe, or the UK.

  • Travel: Around 30% of your time will involve meeting clients and prospects.

  • You’ll collaborate closely with the global sales, marketing, product, and operations teams.
