Partnership Leader Innomission 2: MissionGreenFuels, AAU Innovation

We are seeking a candidate who can be in front of the MissionGreenFuels’ secretariat.

Do you want to contribute to the green transition? Are you an experienced Project manager? Are you motivated by a thriving environment with high expectations and inspiring cooperation? Are you ready to be part of an extraordinary partnership? Then you may be our candidate for a new position as Partnership Leader of the MissionGreenFuels project.

Job description

We are seeking a candidate who can be in front of the MissionGreenFuels’ secretariat. The MissionGreenFuels secretariat is a virtual secretariat and is a joint effort by AAU Innovation (where you will be placed), Energy Cluster Denmark and the Danish Centre for Energy Storage. You will report to the Chairman of MissionGreenFuels’ Board of Directors and the Head of Fundraising and Project Management, AAU Innovation. You will be working closely with the Board of Directors, the co-secretariat organisations and their project managers, and the partnership members across a broad range of disciplines. You will be in front of the strategic development of the partnership, deliver effective target support as we carry out our ambition to grow the MissionGreenFuels partnership and deliver on the Danish Climate Act’s targets.

The successful candidate will be result-oriented, perseverant, a team-player, and a strong communicator. There is no personnel management in the position as Partnership Leader.

Your Role

Developing the partnership:

Strategic development of the Partnership in terms of impact, role and focus
Manage the political focus in collaboration with the Board of Directors
Foster activities to build or shape the Partnership (workshops, meetings, conferences and more)
Support collaboration across the portfolio of projects
Stakeholder management within and outside the Partnership and point of contact
Foster collaboration across the other three Innomissions

Management of the secretariat:

Daily management of the virtual secretariat and cooperation with the co-secretariat organisations
Develop communication plans to support the goals of the Partnership
Maintain information flow via website, newsletter, SoMe, and more
Monitoring project progress via milestones, budgets, and deliverables
Collect and communicate annual reports including budget review
Dialogue with the Innovation Fund Denmark

Responsibilities to the Board of Directors

Plan and facilitate BoD meetings
Keep BoD informed on relevant matters in a timely manner
Use the BoD competencies to develop the Partnership

Your profile

You hold a university degree and have demonstrable experience with project management. You must have the ability to navigate in an environment with people of many different backgrounds. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator, facilitator, and manager, who understands how to adapt communication and behaviors to different surroundings.

Your professional background is preferably of such a nature, that you can comprehend the technological and scientific fundamentals of the research and innovation activities within MissionGreenFuels without necessarily being an expert. As the Partnership is in the very early stages, a start-up mentality where new ideas are brought forward is encouraged. You understand that existing processes will be challenged, and you know what it takes to pave the way to build sustainable change. The role and tasks as Partnership Leader will be developed during the next 4,5 years.
