Vacatures in Lisserbroek

European energy costs are twice as high as in the United States and China. Electricity demand is expected to double by 2050. Market price volatility and complexity are here to stay. The backbone of Europe’s industrial economy is at risk, and companies need to act now.

Our mission at trawa is to build the solution: an integrated B2B energy platform that combines procurement, energy management, and flexibility steering in one product. This integration unlocks up to 30% in recurring electricity cost savings while helping companies switch to renewable energy.

trawa is a Berlin-based scale-up with around 100 FTE. We have raised over €35M to date, including a €24M Series A in May 2025, and are backed by Balderton, Headline, Speedinvest, AENU, Magnetic, and Tiny VC. All three founders are fully committed to building the utility of the future.

As one of the fastest-growing B2B energy platforms in Europe, trawa is already active in Germany and Austria and is now preparing to expand into the Netherlands in 2027. For this next major step, we are looking for a Netherlands Expansion Manager who will take primary responsibility for driving our ambitions in the Dutch market. In this role, you will play a pivotal part in building the foundation for our market entry and actively driving its execution, with the goal of establishing trawa as a leading player in the Dutch energy market.

You will drive trawa's expansion into the Netherlands across the following key areas:

• Cross-functional execution — Act as the central coordination point between the Dutch market and our Berlin HQ, aligning teams, priorities, and workstreams to drive the expansion forward.
• Local operations — Set up the operational foundations required to serve Dutch customers, adapt HQ processes to local market needs, and take ownership of day-to-day operations once the market becomes active.
• Go-to-market steering — Help define and execute the Dutch go-to-market approach, support early customer acquisition and onboarding, and translate market feedback into product, commercial, and operational improvements.
• Local presence — Represent trawa with Dutch customers and business partners, support the setup of our Amsterdam office, and build relationships across the Dutch energy ecosystem.
• Team building — Identify first local hiring needs, support recruiting and onboarding, and help shape the operating model and culture of the local organization.

The setup of the role will evolve over time. In the first few months, you will regularly commute between Amsterdam and our Berlin HQ to work closely with our core teams and lay the foundation for trawa in the Netherlands. Once our Amsterdam office is established, Amsterdam will become your primary workplace while you remain closely connected with our Berlin HQ.

• Relevant experience — 4+ years of professional experience in demanding, fast-paced environments, for example at a top-tier strategy consulting firm, in a high-growth startup, or a similarly dynamic setting.
• Energy interest — A strong interest in the energy sector and motivation to help B2B industrial companies access green, cost-optimized electricity. Ideally, you have already built relevant knowledge through previous work experience, academic involvement, or personal interest.
• Language skills — Fluent in Dutch and English. German is a plus.
• Amsterdam base — Based in Amsterdam or willing to relocate, and open to traveling to Berlin regularly, especially during the initial phase of the role.
• Entrepreneurial spirit — You thrive in environments where not everything is defined yet and are energized by building new things from the ground up.
• Excellence mindset — You set high standards for yourself and others, care deeply about quality, and continuously look for ways to improve.
• Hands-on ownership — Pragmatic, proactive, and execution-oriented. You don't wait for perfect conditions — you identify what needs to be done and take ownership until results are delivered.
• Analytical thinking — You bring structure to complex issues, identify critical insights, and turn them into actionable recommendations.
• Clear communication — You communicate clearly and confidently with different stakeholders, from internal team members to external partners and potential customers.
• Project management — Structured and organized, able to manage multiple priorities while keeping stakeholders aligned.

We know that great candidates rarely tick every box. If you are excited about trawa's mission and believe you can make a strong contribution, we warmly encourage you to apply — even if you do not meet all of the outlined criteria.

• High impact — A unique opportunity to join one of Europe's fastest-growing B2B energy platforms at a defining stage. As Netherlands Expansion Manager, you will be at the forefront of trawa's Dutch expansion, shaping our local presence from day one.
• Leadership support — Regular leadership sessions, cross-functional initiatives, and experienced mentors invested in your success.
• Early responsibility — We empower team members to take ownership, make decisions, and drive results from day one.
• Continuous learning — Annual learning budget and dedicated time for professional development, mentorship, and career progression.
• Diversity commitment — An equal opportunity employer with 15+ nationalities. Family-friendly, inclusive, and committed to an environment where everyone can do their best work.
• Company benefits — A competitive benefits package supporting productivity, learning, wellbeing, and team experience.
