RWE Supply & Trading GmbH

To start as soon as possible, full time / part time, fixed term (24 months)

A rare opportunity to combine your commercial and technical strengths to help RWE facilitate the energy transition and to reach its '2040 net zero CO2' goal: Identifying, developing and realising value-adding new, flexible and firm H2 ready power generation capacities and more energy transition opportunities.

The Commercial Asset Management ("CAM") function in RWE Supply & Trading GmbH (RWEST) commercially manages the Asset Fleet of RWE Power AG and RWE Generation SE, and develops opportunities by connecting Generation, Trading and Grid Business combined with Market and Regulatory expertise.

Currently, a lot is happening in the German generation market - with "Kraftwerksstrategie" and capacity market introduction being the 2 most prominent developments driving new generation assets. Luckily we can benefit from a large pipeline of project opportunities, and for the foreseeable future we expect to realise a lot of attractive projects. As a consequence, we're looking for a highly motivated new team member, initially for two years, who combines commercial drive with strong project management skills and wants to work within our professional team.

About the role

• Working at the interface of commercial markets and cutting-edge technology, realising innovative projects that merge market developments with technological advancements, driving growth and transformation.


• Being responsible for Asset Development of H2-ready power generation projects which fit to RWE's '2040 net zero CO2' strategy (from classical 'big' gas-fired power stations (CCGT / OCGT / CHP) to small, distributed generation assets (e.g. Gas Engines)).


• Steering the whole process from Idea Generation ('Scouting') up to Final Investment Decision ('FID'), including all disciplines like Commercial, Conceptual Design, Contractual, Legal and Permitting.


• Developing tailor-made technical and commercial concepts supporting the energy transition, liaising with internal and external experts.


• Negotiating with both external entities (e.g. customers, contractors) and internal stakeholders to build the contractual base for a value adding new asset and ensuring commercial viability of 'your' project, e.g. by successfully participating in new-build auctions.


• Ultimately bringing 'your' projects to FID.

Job requirements and experience

• University degree, ideally in a 'MINT' subject, preferably combined with a commercial / economical education or background and technology interest.


• Excellent interpersonal skills, ability to thrive in a team environment and strive for transparency and collaboration with integrity, openness, willingness for change and trust.


• Strong project management skills with a proven track record of taking ownership of projects and "making things work".


• Desire to work in a highly professional environment with the goal to jointly bring projects to FID - ability to lead and to support as required to reach the common goal.


• Experience in analysing requirements and developing commercial and technical solutions.


• Fluent in English and German.

Advantageous, but not essential

• Experience in negotiating external commercial contracts is a plus.


• A further European language is of advantage.

What we value most is passion, willingness to learn and a determined and resilient work ethic. So, if you can't display all of the skills above we would still like to hear from you.

Further we welcome applications from individuals who may not be able to commit to full-time roles. At RWEST, finding the right person for the job is our top priority, and we are willing to explore flexible arrangements.

Your benefits

• High-visibility projects with impact: This role allows you to bring strategic projects to realisation that span the entire lifecycle, giving you the opportunity to see your ideas come to fruition and leave a tangible impact on RWE's asset portfolio.


• Work at the cutting edge of technology and markets: You will be at the interface of commercial markets and innovative energy technologies, developing unique solutions that address both regulatory developments and market needs.


• Expand your network and influence: Engage with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, including customers, contractors, and regulatory bodies, giving you exposure to new challenges and increasing your professional influence across the energy industry.


• Accelerate your professional growth: The diversity of this role - combining commercial, technical, and project management responsibilities - will expand your skillset and prepare you for future opportunities within RWE.


• Collaborate with a motivated and professional team: You'll join a team of experienced professionals in a highly collaborative environment, working together towards shared goals while having the autonomy to lead your own projects.
