We are looking for a Senior Grid Connection Manager (m/f/d) to strengthen our capabilities in developing and executing large-scale battery storage projects across Germany and selected European markets.

Your tasks

Career Opportunity:

In this role, you will take ownership of all activities related to connecting our assets to the grid from feasibility and connection application to design coordination and interaction with DSOs and TSOs. You will be a key interface between Terra One and grid operators, ensuring that our projects are grid-ready and that we maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders in the electricity network space.

Your Responsibilities:

• Manage the full lifecycle of grid connection processes for our battery energy storage projects in Germany.
• Identify suitable grid connection points and evaluate technical and commercial connection feasibility.
• Lead and coordinate grid connection applications with DSOs/TSOs, including grid studies, technical clarifications, and connection agreements.
• Serve as the main point of contact for network operators, ensuring proactive communication and trust-based relationships.
• Collaborate closely with internal teams (project development, permitting, engineering) and external consultants to align grid-related activities.
• Support strategic assessments on grid availability, capacity planning, and regulatory developments affecting project pipelines.
• Contribute to internal knowledge building on grid-related topics and best practices.

Your profile

What We Expect From You:

• You bring the ability to “speak the same language” as grid operators: you know their structures, processes, and decision-making frameworks.
• You are comfortable working in both technical and strategic settings, from system studies to high-level grid strategy discussions.
• You can manage multiple projects simultaneously and thrive in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment.
• You are motivated by impact, contributing to a more flexible and resilient energy system.

Qualifications:

• Degree in Electrical Engineering, Energy Systems, Renewable Energy, or a related field.
• 5+ years of professional experience in grid connection, network planning, or system operation.
• Prior experience working within a DSO or TSO (e.g. in grid access, system planning, or grid strategy), or significant experience collaborating directly with grid operators in a consulting or project development role.
• Proven track record in managing grid connection processes for renewable or storage projects.

Skills:

• Strong understanding of German and European grid codes and regulatory frameworks.
• Excellent project management and communication skills.
• Fluency in German and English (both required).
• Ability to translate complex technical and regulatory topics into actionable project steps.
