Project Director Business Development (m/w/d)

As Project Director Business Development (m/w/d), you will be in a unique position to develop one of our large capital projects (hydrogen storage in Etzel, Germany). Developing hydrogen storage in Germany is a technically complex trajectory in a cross-border context, utilizing new innovative solutions. Multiple parties will be involved at a strategic level during development, making the stakes high. Besides the innovative nature, the project must be executed in a turbulent environment; the developing hydrogen market. During execution, there is a high financial and/or reputational risk. You will work in a team that is responsible for developing hydrogen storage projects in the Netherlands and Germany. For example, in the Netherlands, we are developing the HyStock project. This project involves the development of the first large hydrogen storage in the Netherlands and is one of Gasunie's strategic hydrogen projects. Gasunie is also active in Germany, working on the H2-Cast and SpHyGER projects. The location of these projects (Etzel) where you will be responsible for, is strategically located with good connections to the Dutch and German hydrogen markets. Integrating this storage location with the network and various import locations is essential in this context. Your task is to structure, develop, and ultimately bring this complex, cross-border large capital project (>500 million) to the Final Investment Decision (FID). You will do this together with a multidisciplinary project team (growing towards ~20 FTE) involved from multiple (professional) disciplines (technical, economic, commercial, operational, and political). In the team, you will ensure optimal cooperation between both internal and external stakeholders to achieve the desired successes. In short, a very challenging and dynamic role in which you actively contribute to accelerating the energy transition. You understand that in this role, the various facets of the technical, economic, commercial, operational, and political challenges of the project are your responsibilities.
