Job description

​My client is seeking two highly experienced Project Managers to join our German development team. This is a rare opportunity to join one of the world’s leading renewable energy companies in a long-term, strategic capacity.

About the Role

As a Senior Project Manager, you will lead the development of onshore wind projects with a strong regional focus on Lower Saxony. You will be responsible for steering projects through the full permitting lifecycle, with particular emphasis on securing BImSchG approvals.

This is not a role we are looking to fill quickly – we are only interested in exceptional candidates who bring 5+ years of hands-on wind development experience and a proven track record of at least three successful BImSchG permits.

Responsibilities

  • Drive the full development cycle of onshore wind projects

  • Lead permitting processes with local authorities and stakeholders

  • Oversee land acquisition, environmental assessments, and technical planning

  • Collaborate with internal teams including grid, finance, legal, and engineering

  • Represent the company at fairs, team events, and internal workshops (occasional travel to locations such as Düsseldorf and other offices across Germany)

What We’re Looking For
  • Minimum 5 years of onshore wind development experience in Germany

  • Track record of at least 3 successful BImSchG permits

  • Strong regional understanding of Northern or Western Germany, especially Lower Saxony

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

  • German language proficiency required

Why Join Us?
  • Salary: €95,000 – €100,000, depending on experience

  • Join a global leader in renewable energy with over 5,000 employees worldwide

  • Work with an established and reputable player in the German market

  • Access to a significant project pipeline and long-term career prospects

  • Flexible start – we’re focused on hiring the right person, not the fastest
