Become responsible for managing our international tenders
Do you thrive in a dynamic, high-tech environment, where you are responsible for solving large scale, complex challenges? If you have some years of experience in selling or managing major commercial or technical projects, we have the ideal opportunity for you. Working closely with our international customers, we develop, manufacture, and install efficient, environmentally friendly, and technologically advanced high-voltage cables (HVC) for land and offshore applications worldwide, both HVDC and HVAC technology.

Drive our large global projects
We are in an expanding phase and are now searching for skilled individuals to join our team as an Associate Commercial & Tender Manager. You will have the opportunity to work as part of our team in the Interconnectors, Offshore wind, and Power from shore segments.

With your technical knowledge and business-minded approach, you will have primary responsibility for the tendering of large, global, and highly complex projects, many of which are for major installations, with tenders that run from a couple of months to over a number of years and with order values spanning from 50 MEURO to over a billion EURO. You will be expected to lead your project tender team to meet customer requirements and expectations. Therefore, you will have ample opportunity to apply your creativity in structuring and creating robust solutions.

You will work closely with NKT's internal stakeholders, and in your tender team, you will have representatives from legal experts, engineers, production units, planners, and installation experts, to ensure that the tenders move forward and meet deadlines. Other responsibilities will include presenting our solutions to customers, leading negotiations, further developing our extensive network of contacts, and working to achieve success in our tenders, many of which are for major stakeholders in the international market.

Your primary tasks will be:

  • Responsibility for all aspects in the tender from start of tendering to contract award and handover to the Operations department
  • Drive multidisciplinary tender team from pre-qualification to negotiations with the customer into order with respect to timing as well as scope of work in the tender
  • Responsibility to deliver high-quality tenders, prioritizing appropriately and meeting both customer and NKT demands and directives
  • Develop and maintain relationships with key stakeholders, internally and externally
  • Responsibility for sales strategy activities in alignment with management

You will be employed at what will soon be the world's largest submarine cable factory, playing a key role in the creation of a better future by enabling the expansion of wind farms and optimizing energy supply between and within countries. We deliver complete solutions, cable systems, and installation with our own vessel.

Commercially driven leader with technical understanding
To thrive in this role, you are a driven and independent person who provides excellent team leadership. You coach and motivate your project team, encouraging them to continually develop their skills, and you enjoy collaborating and sharing experiences with colleagues as well as with customers.

You are motivated by being in an international and fast-moving environment, where you have the opportunity to apply your analytical abilities, strong social skills, and integrity.

Proficient communication skills and the ability to present complex ideas to others with an emphasis on being solution-oriented is key to succeed in this role. It is beneficial if you possess a wide-ranging understanding of technology and complex contracts.

In addition to the above, it is meritorious if you have several years of experience managing or selling major projects, preferably in the power, offshore, or construction sectors. You are an effective negotiator, with experience in major engineering, procurement & construction (EPC) projects, including where you have successfully dealt with different contract types.

Additionally, your CV comprises:

  • Bachelor's in Engineering (Preferably Electrical), Commercial Management, or similar
  • Fluency in spoken and written English
