Project Manager C&I role in Berlin

Overview

This is the commercial and industrial arm of one of Europe’s best-known green tech companies, a Berlin-headquartered business that grew from residential solar into a green tech unicorn. Launched in 2023 as an independent unit, the C&I business now runs a team of more than 50 specialists and works with over 150 commercial and industrial customers across Germany.

The business covers two fast-scaling lines: rooftop solar, behind-the-meter storage and EV charging for commercial and industrial clients, and large-scale front-of-meter BESS built for arbitrage trading. The pipeline is substantial, with several hundred front-of-meter battery projects in development alongside a growing C&I book. This is an established, well-backed operation with the pace and autonomy of a scale-up rather than the layers of a traditional IPP.

They are hiring a Project Manager to take projects from deployment through to delivery, and to help absorb a pipeline that is outpacing the current team.

What you’ll do

• Manage solar, behind-the-meter BESS and large-scale front-of-meter BESS projects end-to-end
• Coordinate subcontractors across Germany, keeping delivery on time and to standard
• Move between C&I rooftop and storage work and large-scale front-of-meter BESS
• Carry out site visits where needed, with travel across Germany
• Work at mid-voltage level on front-of-meter projects
• Take real ownership of delivery, with the freedom to run projects independently

What we’re looking for

• 2 to 3 years minimum of hands-on project delivery, having managed the full lifecycle end-to-end
• A proven track record of deploying and managing projects independently
• Subcontractor coordination experience
• Comfortable with ambiguity and a fast pace, wanting responsibility and a clear runway rather than a rigid corporate structure
• Large-scale behind-the-meter BESS delivery, which covers most of what the front-of-meter work requires
• Mid-voltage experience
• A business development or venture mindset alongside solid technical grounding

What’s on offer

• Base salary of EUR 80,000 to 90,000, with up to EUR 100,000 for an exceptional profile
• 30 days holiday
• Company car, depending on profile
• Corporate benefits package including gym membership
• Hybrid working with home office setup and occasional time in Berlin
