Commercial Operations

Rivan Industries () is a synthetic fuel company designed to decarbonise heavy industry. We aim to make synthetic fuel cheaper than fossil fuels and sustain life on earth by keeping the CO2 locked underground.

We design and manufacture modular synthetic fuel plants consisting of a DAC system, an Alkaline Electrolyser, and a Sabatier Reactor, whilst vertically integrating with off-grid DC solar and the European gas-grid. We’ve recently deployed the UK’s largest synthetic fuel plant and are planning to 1000x this scale in the next 2 years.

We are looking for a Commercial Operations Lead to turn our commercial agreements into delivered molecules.

The role:

• Own the operational delivery of Rivan’s commercial contracts. You’ll be the operational contact for our offtake, feedstock and partnership agreements, managing nominations, gas shipping and contract execution so every agreement we sign is delivered well.
• Lead Rivan’s certification strategy, securing and maintaining ISCC and related certifications so our synthetic fuels can be traded, claimed and valued across European markets.
• Build the processes, systems and controls needed to execute commercial agreements at scale, from our first plants to volume deployment across Europe.
• Operate centrally, coordinating commercial, finance, engineering, deployment and permitting teams to de-bottleneck commercial delivery, solving problems quickly and making sure we execute well at every stage.

Core skills:

• Commercial operations experience, either in a high-growth start-up or within energy, chemicals, industry or trading
• Experience in gas shipping and/or certification schemes (ISCC or similar) is highly desirable
• Exceptional problem solving, with a track record of strong project delivery and project management
• Ability to build processes from scratch in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment

Specifics:

• £60 - 80k Salary depending on experience
• Share options as part of the early team
• Extensive relocation support, including £6000 per year extra to live close to our HQ
• In-person work at our HQ in Bermondsey, South-East London - flexibility considered based on personal circumstances
• Private health insurance
• Unlimited time off
