A leading international renewable energy platform is seeking a Senior Business Development Manager – Origination (IPP) to drive the sourcing, structuring, and closing of renewable energy acquisitions across Europe.
This is a high-impact, front-line origination role with full ownership of transactions, from first market entry through signing and closing across utility-scale PV, BESS, and wind projects, with future expansion into emerging technologies such as Data Centres and Power-to-X.
If you are commercially driven, thrive on deal-making, and want full accountability for MW-scale growth, this is a rare opportunity to shape a European portfolio at scale.
The Opportunity
You will take ownership of:
Proactively originating off-market and proprietary renewable opportunities
Building and maintaining strong local pipelines with developers, landowners, brokers, utilities, and partners

Preparing and submitting NBOs and term sheets in competitive processes
Leading full due diligence (technical, legal, financial, permitting, grid)
Negotiating SPA, DSA, JV, and development partnership agreements
Taking transactions from origination through signing and closing
Ensuring seamless handover to development and asset management teams
What We’re Looking For
10+ years’ experience in renewable energy origination, acquisitions, or development within an IPP or leading platform
Proven track record of successfully closed transactions (not just sourced) in PV, BESS, and/or wind
Hands-on experience leading NBOs, due diligence, and contract negotiations
Strong knowledge of European permitting regimes, grid connection processes, and development risk
Direct market exposure across Central, Northern, and Eastern Europe
Commercially sharp with strong negotiation capability
Comfortable operating independently and managing multiple live deals
Fluent English (additional European languages highly advantageous)
Willingness to travel extensively
Why This Role?
Front-line deal ownership with real autonomy
Exposure to multi-country European transactions
Opportunity to shape market entry and long-term growth strategy
Work across established and emerging energy technologies
Competitive base salary
Annual performance bonus
Car allowance
Stock options
Comprehensive benefits package
Join a well-capitalised international platform with ambitious European expansion plans
