Role
Who you are
- This is a highly commercial role that requires short term energy trading knowledge, client engagement, strong business acumen, and the ability to navigate complex negotiations
- 5+ years in a commercial role in the renewable energy space (e.g., Account Manager, Structurer, Originator, or Business Development Manager)
- Proven track record in renegotiating complex contracts, optimizing deals, and upselling solutions
- Business acumen to understand the renewable energy market and AI solutions (strategy, analytics or finance background is a bonus)
- Data-driven mindset, able to assess client performance and proactively recommend solutions
- Passion for renewable energy and AI
What the job involves
- This position will be part of the sales team within the Commercial Department, working closely with Philip van Engers (Head of Sales & Business Development), Hubert Penn (CCO), Victor Lanckriet & Konstantinos Sklavenitis (Account Executive) and Andi Piftor (Marketing Manager)
- As a Strategic Growth Manager at Dexter Energy, you'll play a critical role in managing and expanding relationships with our existing clients in the energy space
- Instead of selling from scratch, you’ll focus on maximizing value for both the client and Dexter
- Your focus is to analyze performance, renegotiate contracts where necessary, and drive upsells on volume and additional products
- Go deep into client accounts to assess ongoing performance and identify optimization opportunities
- Renegotiate contracts where conditions have changed, ensuring long-term win-win partnerships
- Identify and drive upsell opportunities—whether in additional volumes, new products, or optimizations
- Act as a trusted advisor to our clients, helping them optimize their trading strategies using Dexter’s solutions
Our take
Dexter provides highly accurate energy forecasts to renewable energy producers. Its algorithm analyses current and historic weather data to determine how much electricity windmills and solar panels will generate on a given day. This enables energy companies to reduce imbalances on the grid by determining energy loads, helping companies to optimise their renewable electricity production and consumption.
As the energy market continues to shift, large-scale providers must be able to anticipate changing weather and market conditions. Since the company’s AI-powered software enables companies to manage increasing imbalance costs, Dexter has considerable growth potential as it expands its services across Europe and into the UK.
