Are you looking for an exciting and inspiring place to work? Are you experienced in driving procurement and managing supplier relationships within a project-oriented environment? If you're ready to take on this multifaceted role, apply now

The world rapidly needs to electrify to replace fossil fuels on a massive scale. The hard-to-abate sectors like shipping, aviation and heavy land transport cannot be electrified with battery power and require a different type of electrification: Electrofuel made from renewable electricity and biogenic CO2.

Our business model is designed for scale, and we have a solid pipeline of projects in development in the Nordic countries with the goal of reaching Final Investment Decision (FID) for reaching more than 10 projects by 2027. We have a strong group of investors, including Alfa Laval, Carbon Clean, Elyse Energy, HyCap, Siemens Energy, Topsoe and Uniper.

Liquid Wind is a fast-growing company, headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden and with a presence in Denmark, Finland and the UK. We have approx. 60 employees and are looking for a person that enjoys developing and growing together with the company.

The location for this position is flexible (Denmark, Sweden). Some travel will be required.

Responsibilities

We are looking for a Strategic Contracting & Procurement Lead to join our small and dedicated team. You will be responsible for the contracting and procurement activities related to one or more of our large Flagship projects from initiate through to FID, collaborating closely with internal teams and external stakeholders. Moreover, you will contribute to the work on optimizing our reference plants and developing processes and frameworks to minimize risk and costs.

Your key responsibilities include:

  • Lead and coordinate the build up and management of project cost estimates as well as interface potential investors on procurement matters throughout the initial development phases
  • Lead and manage all procurement and contracting activities related to Flagship projects through to FID, ensuring alignment across the project and communicating updates to key stakeholders
  • Building and nurturing supplier relationships and lead the management of long-term business relationships with key strategic suppliers

You will be reporting to the Head of Strategic Contracting & Procurement located in Hørsholm, Denmark as part of the CTO area.

About you

You are a proactive and resilient individual with an interest in technology who has experience in shaping mutually beneficial partnerships. In your role you will collaborate across departments, which will require leadership, teamwork, communication and influencing skills. You thrive at the intersection between strategy and business operations, leveraging your cross-disciplinary knowledge to drive impactful outcomes.

Qualification:

  • Bachelor's or master's degree in supply chain, engineering, business management or similar
  • Proven experience in procurement/contract management and stakeholder engagement, preferable within major projects
  • Strong negotiation and communication skills
  • Ability to work collaboratively and influence others without formal authority
  • Experience with project execution from the power and process industry is an advantage
  • Curios, self-motivated, and results-driven

The company language is English, and preferably you understand and speak a Scandinavian language as well.

We offer you
  • The possibility to actively contribute to the green transition by joining a pioneering company that is leading the way in sustainable energy innovation.
  • The opportunity to work alongside driven professionals with a shared commitment to sustainability, fostering a supportive and collaborative culture.
  • A workplace that understands the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance.
  • A dynamic work environment, where each day brings new challenges and opportunities.

Together with our strong values:

  • Community: We are working together with peers and partners to reduce dependency on fossil fuel. Strong community collaboration provides the power to drive real change.
  • Drive: We put our ability to use here and now. We don't wait for approval or answers from others. We don't get stuck in endless discussions or negotiations. We act. Now.
  • Courage: We have the willpower, conviction and resilience it takes to become a category leader. We never give up, and we are not intimidated by the scope of our task or the fossil industry we are gradually replacing.
  • Transparency: In our business of green transformation, transparency will be critical to gaining trust. We must live by it and make sure our customers can too.
