Commercial Director – EV Charging & Energy Infrastructure
UK | Hybrid
A growing EV charging and energy infrastructure business is looking to bring in a senior commercial leader to help shape its next phase of growth.
The business has already built a presence in the market and is now looking to accelerate customer acquisition, develop larger strategic partnerships and strengthen its commercial proposition across the UK.
This is not a role focused purely on managing an existing sales team. The successful person will be expected to play a visible role in the market, open doors with key customers, influence commercial strategy and help build the structure needed to support further growth.
What you’ll be doing
You’ll take a lead role across the commercial side of the business, working closely with the leadership team on where and how the company grows. Your remit will include:
- Developing and executing the commercial growth plan
- Identifying new markets, customers and revenue opportunities
- Building relationships with major fleet, property, infrastructure and commercial customers
- Developing strategic partnerships and routes to market
- Leading major bids, tenders and commercial negotiations
- Improving pipeline quality, forecasting and sales discipline
- Shaping pricing and commercial propositions
- Supporting market expansion across the UK and, longer term, Europe
- Building and developing the commercial team as the business scales
- Working closely with delivery, operations, product and technical teams

- Commercial Director

- EV charging
- e-mobility
- energy infrastructure
- distributed energy
- electrical infrastructure

We are particularly interested in people who have worked in environments where they have had to create growth rather than simply manage it.

The opportunity
This is a chance to join a business at a point where the commercial strategy is still being shaped.
There is room for the successful person to have a genuine say in:
- Which markets the business prioritises
- How the sales team is structured
- Which partnerships are developed
- How key accounts are approached
- How the business expands geographically
For someone who enjoys building and shaping rather than stepping into a finished structure, it offers a broad remit and a high level of influence.
