Build the partnerships that power Norway's energy transition.

ElBits is an ambitious collaboration among Norway’s grid companies aimed at driving change in the power grid industry. We achieve this by integrating and standardizing data and developing digital products. Our goal is to create a digital infrastructure that will enable the sector to increase grid capacity and efficiency , as well as streamline and improve customer journeys.

With our partnerships, deep industry expertise, and access to critical data, we are uniquely positioned to innovate and address the challenges of today’s energy systems. By making data accessible and enabling collaboration, we unlock the grid industry's potential. Together, we contribute to solving one of the greatest challenges of our time - the energy transition.

At ElBits, Team Ecosystem is where products meet partners. As we scale, we are looking for a Partner and Business Developer who can build and evolve how we collaborate and interact with our partners, the grid companies, and help make ElBits anintegrated part of how they operate.

This is a new role at the centre of our ecosystem. You will own the coordination, structure, and execution of cross-functional initiatives toward our partners, and act as the bridge between our product teams and the needs of the grid companies. Over time, you will build deep, ElBits-specific knowledge and the methodology, processes, and tools that make our partnerships more coordinated and scalable.

You will work closely with our Head of Ecosystem and the rest of the ecosystem team, as well as our product teams. The role spans the full range from strategic focus to concrete coordination and detail, and gives you real influence over the direction, priorities, and growth of the customer fleet at ElBits.

Increasing partner engagement, alignment, and adoption of new initiatives.

Identifying and driving new opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and growth across the ecosystem.

What will you do?

Your mission is to align ElBits and the grid companies as one through close external collaboration. Concretely, you will help us understand partner needs and maturity, build better structure around contact and coordination, create alignment between ElBits’ priorities and those of our partners, secure a strong information flow to the product teams, and drive innovation and business development across the ecosystem.

Your responsibilities include: Paving the way for new initiatives

Business development and innovation

Stay close to partners and the market to identify new opportunities and emerging needs.

Contribute business cases, decision support, and recommendations for new initiatives and strategic investments.

You’re energised by building relationships and uncovering opportunities. You thrive in the space between strategy and execution, and enjoy creating structure, alignment, and momentum.

We believe you:

Enjoy building relationships with customers, partners, and other stakeholders, and proactively engage them to understand their needs, challenges, and opportunities.

Are skilled at creating trust, alignment, and commitment across different teams, organisations, and interests.

Communicate clearly and confidently, and facilitate productive dialogue between business, product, and technology stakeholders.

Are motivated by helping customers and partners realise value, while identifying opportunities for deeper collaboration and impact.

Relevant experience includes:

Several years of experience in Customer / Partner Success, Account Management, Project Management, Business Development, or similar customer-facing roles.
