About the role

  • Global Energy Performance Manager focused on improving industrial energy performance and reducing CO₂ emissions throughout regional sites. Leading initiatives in energy management and decarbonization with a technical approach.

Responsibilities

  • Drive regional energy performance improvement initiatives with clear objectives on energy intensity, cost reduction, and Scope 1 & 2 CO₂ emissions.
  • Translate corporate energy and decarbonization targets into practical, engineering-based site action plans.
  • Identify, prioritize, and deploy energy efficiency levers focused on utilities, fuels, electricity, and energy-intensive processes.
  • Ensure CO₂ reductions are achieved through measurable energy performance improvements, not through offsets or non-technical mechanisms.
  • Design, implement, and maintain energy management processes and procedures to ensure disciplined and consistent execution across sites.
  • Define and deploy operational energy and CO₂ KPIs (consumption, efficiency, cost, emissions, savings).
  • Ensure reliable data collection, validation, and analysis of energy and emissions data, with a strong focus on accuracy and operational relevance.
  • Track initiatives, validate savings and CO₂ impact, and report performance against defined targets.
  • Lead or coordinate technical energy audits covering utilities, energy distribution, and energy-intensive processes.
  • Define prioritized improvement roadmaps with quantified energy savings, CO₂ impact, CAPEX/OPEX, and payback.
  • Guide and technically challenge external engineering or consulting partners when required.
  • Ensure governance and follow-up to confirm implementation and realization of benefits.
  • Act as a technical reference for sites on energy performance and energy management topics.
  • Develop site capabilities by coaching local energy, maintenance, and process experts on energy efficiency methodologies and standards.
  • Support plants in resolving complex energy-related issues impacting cost, reliability, or performance, without taking an operational ownership role.
  • Coordinate regional energy initiatives in close collaboration with Operations CoE, Purchasing, and plant management.
  • Deploy standardized tools, methodologies, and best practices across all sites.
  • Monitor developments in industrial energy technologies and energy-related regulations, strictly from an operational and compliance standpoint.

Requirements

  • Strong expertise in industrial energy systems and energy consumption drivers (utilities, fuels, electricity, processes).
  • Proven ability to deliver measurable energy and cost savings in multi-site industrial environments
  • Solid experience in energy management frameworks and structured improvement programs.
  • Strong analytical and data-driven mindset, focused on results and performance tracking.
  • Ability to influence and drive action in a matrix organization without direct operational authority.
  • Practical understanding of CAPEX justification, ROI, and payback calculations.
  • Ability to structure and deliver operational training for site and hub managers.
  • Comfortable interacting with both shop-floor experts and senior management.
  • Engineering degree or equivalent technical background.
  • Minimum 7 years of experience in industrial energy management, process engineering or related technical functions within a global industrial group.
  • ISO 50001 experience (nice to have)
  • Lean Six Sigma Green Belt (nice to have)
  • English: professional or native proficiency., another European language is a plus.

Benefits

  • Health insurance
  • Flexible work arrangements
  • Professional development opportunities
