Are you passionate about Innovation, Grants, Technology, and Strategy? Turn ideas into business opportunities!
Oslo (Norway), with the possibility of hybrid work (in-office/remote).
About the Role
As a Senior Consultant focusing on Business Development for our Oslo office, you will take a proactive lead in business development, building and sustaining client relationships, and expanding Innovayt’s presence in the innovation landscape in Norway. We have strong presences in the health sector, an area we also will continue to develop further. Another focus area is within new energies such as hydrogen, energy storage, CCUS, renewables, and decarbonization of energy-intensive industries.
You will be engaged in assisting clients in designing and presenting their cutting-edge new energy and low-carbon technology/research projects for funding, nationally and internationally (ENOVA/European Innovation Fund, etc.). In addition to grant instruments, our goal is to be a trusted advisor on topics such as loans, equity, and tax incentives.
Why You Should Be Interested
- This role isn’t just operational, it’s strategic. You’ll be at the forefront of Norway’s decarbonization journey, helping startups and established players bring transformative ideas to life making a real impact, commercially and societally.
- This is a rare opportunity to be a trusted advisor to companies at the cutting edge of energy innovation. You will build a powerful network of entrepreneurs, innovators, and decision-makers revolutionizing the energy and sustainability sectors.
- A chance to deepen your expertise in health innovations and/or energy technologies and funding strategies. From hydrogen and CCUS to renewables and energy storage, you’ll gain hands-on experience with the technologies driving the green transition and the European and national funding instruments supporting this initiative.
Requirements
- A relevant higher education degree within engineering, finance, industrial economics, or similar.
- 5+ years of relevant experience from business development and consultancy.
- Proven track record from business development of consultancy services. Having experience or understanding from innovation projects/financing, soft funding applications is a plus, but not a must.
- Strong interpersonal skills and ability to work and communicate extensively with clients, partners, and colleagues from various backgrounds.
- Excellent Norwegian and English skills – both written and verbal.
We Offer
- Competitive salary
- Hybrid work options (in-office/remote)
- Opportunity to work on cutting-edge projects in the energy and health sectors
- Professional development opportunities
