HEAD OF ORIGINATION – LAND ACQUISITION (RENEWABLE ENERGY)
I'm currently working with a leading renewable energy developer based in Milan that’s looking to hire a Head of Origination to lead the acquisition of land for large-scale renewable energy projects across Italy.
The company has been active in the Italian renewables market for over a decade, with operations spanning planning, development, construction, and operation of solar PV, wind, and BESS (battery storage) assets. With over 2.5GW in the pipeline and backing from top-tier European banks, they are scaling rapidly and investing heavily in long-term growth.
What’s on offer :
* Strategic leadership role in land origination
* 80k–€90k salary (based on experience)
* Opportunity to shape national origination strategy
* Strong, well-capitalised platform with long-term vision
Key responsibilities :
* Lead origination and acquisition of land for utility-scale renewable energy projects
* Develop and manage relationships with landowners, brokers, and local stakeholders
* Oversee internal origination team and external partners
* Evaluate and prioritise high-potential areas based on grid access and permitting feasibility
* Collaborate with development, legal, and technical teams to bring sites through early-stage milestones
* Contribute to broader commercial and strategic decisions across the Italy pipeline
* Strong track record in land origination for renewables in Italy
* Excellent network of land agents and brokers
* Understanding of local regulations, land rights, and environmental considerations
* Commercial mindset with strategic leadership capabilities
* Fluency in Italian and solid command of English
If you're looking to take on a leadership role with real impact in Italy’s energy transition — and join a stable, well-funded developer — this could be the right move.
