An leading European provider bioenergy, biomethane, and bio‑LNG operating across Europe, is seeking a regulatory professional to join at a pivotal stage of growth and transformation. The organisation is expanding rapidly through strategic acquisitions and is evolving its commercial, operational, and digital capabilities.

• Ability to translate complex regulatory frameworks into practical business guidance
• Commercial awareness, with an interest in how regulation shapes market opportunities
