Construction Manager DK

Would you like an exciting career with a high degree of development and responsibilities in a green company in rapid growth? Does it motivate you to be on the frontline of the renewable energy business and handling the construction of larger solar/PV and wind projects? Then perhaps you are our new Construction Manager.

European Energy is a Danish privately owned company in rapid growth. We cover all phases of wind and photovoltaic (PV) solar projects, from early development to operation and in some cases divestment of assets. Our company of +400 employees has since 2004 installed more than 2.0 GW of renewable energy. We operate globally and employ 30 different nationalities at our HQ in Copenhagen and our offices in 16 other locations, primarily in Europe. Our vision is to be a major global force in driving the green transition.

As our new Construction Manager, you will be part of our project execution team, and you will work closely with colleagues in Denmark, as well as with our colleagues in Italy, Lithuania, UK, Poland, and Sweden. Your primary focus will be to handle the construction of our solar/PV and wind projects in Denmark, primarily in Jutland, but there will also be opportunities to assist on other European wind and solar/PV projects.

Your role will be to effectively steer the construction of our multi-MW sites by coordinating the interface between our internal Project Manager, Engineering and Procurement, and the numerous construction subcontractors on site. You thrive with complex situations, finding fast and good solutions to problems on the way, but also have the experience to foresee most of these.

• Microsoft office skills and general data/technical analysis skills
• Communicating clearly and with authority in Danish and English
• Technical understanding/interest and experience with Wind or solar/PV construction is good but not required
