Brussels, Belgique Fastned Temps plein

**Join a fast growing company that matters to the future Together with 170 colleagues with over 35 nationalities we have the ambition to build Europe's best fast charging network in prime locations where electric drivers can charge their vehicles with energy from the sun and wind. We offer you the unique opportunity to fulfil an exciting, key role in a fast growing company, that is a pioneer in a completely new industry, offering you lots of ownership and the opportunity to create a big impact for Fastned and all EV drivers across Europe**

**Your role**:
The EU policy environment has a lot of influence on the roll-out of fast charging infrastructure across Europe. As EU Public Affairs Lead, you help to shape the EU policy system to ensure that the launching of fast charging infrastructure can accelerate and operate in an optimal environment. You can effectively address topics in line with Fastned’s mission in ‘Charge Up Europe’, other associations, and with relevant departments in the EU. The EU is developing relevant policies on different fronts simultaneously, like regulation on payment methods and access to vehicle data for example.

Also, you will gather and inspire an international and mission-driven public affairs team of +5 local experts. They are bringing local positive change to Europe’s policy environment to the benefit of the transition to electric mobility.

Fastned’s business is growing and developing rapidly. This means that you will need to be able to adapt quickly, show entrepreneurship and leadership to help shape the agenda. You make sure Fastned's positions are heard in Brussels and vice versa inspire and support team members in finding their way to make our positions heard locally. You will be able to align and strategize jointly with your colleagues and help translate what policy developments mean for our business.

**What does it look like concretely?**:

- You effectively influence the EU policy making process & create the right conditions to accelerate the roll-out of fast charging infrastructure;
- You develop a strategy in line with Fastned’s priorities, and are tuned in with the right internal teams, external organisations and individuals. You have great instincts and know how to convince people;
- You are the face of Fastned in Brussels and you will establish our presence. You position Fastned as a thought leader in the EU policy environment on topics most important to Fastned’s mission and goals;
- You are able to contribute to the overall growth of Fastned’s business across Europe;
- You have a clear overview of the different policy processes under development in the EU and you represent Fastned in the relevant working groups and policy development processes;
- You are a team player and as part of the European public affairs team willing to help out in other areas where needed and relevant.

**Job requirements**:
You are an entrepreneurial & strategic person, highly motivated to accelerate the energy transition and support Fastned’s mission. You bring along a strong network among EU policy stakeholders, you know the right buttons to push, events to attend, bars to hang out in and you have a solid understanding of the EU policy environment. You have outstanding written and oral communication skills, and the ability to speak with gravitas at the highest levels, such as Commissioners. Next to that you tick the following boxes:

- 5 to 10 years minimum experience within Public Affairs in relevant companies, industry associations, consumer groups, standards organisations and/or governments;
- Masters degree in a relevant field;
- Ambition, resourcefulness, and problem-solving skills;
- Interest in technical and commercial aspects of the business;
- You are fluent in English, other European languages are bonus;
- You are an inspiring leader that likes coaching team members to deliver success based on ownership and independence.

**Join us in building a better future**:
Fastned currently operates in six countries (Netherlands, Germany, UK, Switzerland, France and Belgium) and is growing fast. We work hard to change the world, but we don't forget to celebrate our successes, big and small. Our benefits include participation in the company stock options program. We provide daily vegetarian lunches & the best coffee in our offices. Next to fun company events year-round, we organise an amazing yearly trip abroad. Other perks include flexible working hours, full travel compensation and the gear of your choice (MacBook vs Dell, iPhone vs Android).

Continuous development is important to us and our industry offers endless opportunities for knowledge enhancement, so each employee receives a €3,000 training and development budget per year.
