Project Manager - Construction

Overview

Our client is one of Europe’s fastest-growing EV fast-charging operators, building a Europe-wide network of fast-charging stations that supply drivers with energy from the sun and wind. They have more than 500 people across Europe, from over 40 nationalities, and a clear target of 1,000 stations.

Denmark is one of their key growth markets. They currently have 7 stations live and a plan to grow to more than 50. The local team is small and close-knit, with three permanent staff and an interim construction project manager, supported by an international construction management function across the business.

They are adding a more senior Technical Project Manager to the Danish team: someone who can own grid connections and construction delivery from day one, and grow with the market as the network scales.

What you’ll do

• Secure grid connections for new charging stations, from application through to realisation, working directly with Danish grid operators
• Plan and coordinate construction across several station projects at once, managing schedules, budgets and material supply
• Work with engineering partners and contractors to deliver high-quality stations safely and on time
• Build relationships with grid operators, municipalities and local partners
• Support the network development team with site evaluations and due diligence
• Keep stakeholders in Denmark and across Europe informed through clear, regular reporting

What we’re looking for

• 4 to 7 years of experience in construction, infrastructure deployment or technical project management
• A technical background, through an engineering degree or equivalent practical experience. You can read technical plans and drawings with confidence
• Experience managing multiple projects at the same time
• Grid connection experience in Denmark is a strong plus, but can be learned
• No EV or renewables background required. Candidates from construction, infrastructure, utilities and adjacent technical fields are also interesting
• Confident making decisions independently, pragmatic, and comfortable with ambiguity
• Strong communication and negotiation skills
• Fluent English
• A full driving licence and willingness to travel within Denmark and occasionally abroad
