European Business Director
European Business Director – Germany / DACH
High Voltage | Power Infrastructure | European Growth
We are conducting a confidential search for a senior commercial leader to take a pivotal role in the European growth of an established international business operating within the power infrastructure market.
This is not simply a sales leadership position.
The successful individual will have the opportunity to build, develop and share in the success of a significant European business, initially with a strong focus on Germany. The mandate combines market development, customer relationships, commercial leadership and the creation of the team and infrastructure required to support long-term growth.
We are particularly interested in individuals who have built strong relationships across the German HV/EHV, transmission, distribution, cable, grid or wider electrical infrastructure market.
You may currently be operating as a:
- Regional Director
- Country Manager
- Sales Director
- Business Development Director
- Head of Sales
- Business Unit Director
- Senior commercial leader ready for broader responsibility
What matters more than your current title is your market credibility.
You should understand how major power infrastructure projects are developed and delivered, know the organisations and people operating within the German market, and be capable of turning relationships and market knowledge into sustainable commercial growth.
We are looking for someone entrepreneurial enough to build rather than simply inherit - but with the experience and credibility to represent an established international organisation at senior level.
The Package
A significant executive package will be structured to attract a high-calibre individual and will include a strong base salary, performance-related reward and comprehensive senior-level benefits.
Importantly, for the right individual there is also the potential to participate in share/equity-related incentives linked to the European business and the value created through its growth.
This creates an opportunity that goes considerably beyond salary and annual bonus. The successful individual will be joining at a stage where they can have a material influence on the development and value of the European operation — with the potential to participate financially in that success.
Location: Germany preferred, with flexibility for the right individual
Travel: Germany and wider Europe
Language: Fluent German and English
