Strategy Leader, Energy Transition

For this U.S. based position, the expected compensation range is $170,000 - $250,000 per year, which includes base pay and short-term incentive. Schneider Electric has a meaningful opportunity available for a Strategy Leader for Energy Transition. You will work for a company consistently rated by Fortune as one of the "Great Places to Work" and by Glassdoor as the 11th spot on the "Best Place To Work", by Ethisphere as "one of the World's Most Ethical Companies", by Forbes as "America's Best Employers for Diversity", by Equileap as the "World's Top 10 in Gender Equality", and by TIME as the "Most Sustainable Company in the World."

Mission The Strategy Leader for Energy Transition is a catalyst for long-term growth and transformation-responsible for defining the strategic direction, innovation roadmap, and portfolio evolution across emerging energy systems and electrification markets. This role shapes how the organization competes and wins as energy systems rapidly evolve toward decentralization, digitization, decarbonization, and electrification. You will play a central role in positioning the company at the forefront of the energy transition by anticipating and shaping power distribution, circuit protection and controls solutions for new energy sources, grid-edge generation, new electrical loads, electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, and semiconductor-driven applications.

Success in this role directly accelerates profitable growth, strengthens relevance in next-generation energy ecosystems, and elevates strategic partnerships across utilities, OEMs, developers, and technology leaders. The Strategy Leader, Energy Transition will also play a critical role in shaping how emerging energy assets-including distributed generation, grid-interactive loads, and next-generation nuclear technologies-interconnect, operate, and transact within evolving power systems. This role ensures the portfolio is designed not only for technical excellence, but also for scalable, repeatable, and commercialized deployment across regulated and deregulated markets.
