Grants Manager in Renewable Energies and E-Mobility

Eranovum is a Spanish business group dedicated to accelerating the transition to a new energy era, where renewable energies, self-consumption and electromobility will be essential and predominant. The company's activity as an independent energy producer includes the investment, development, and operation of solar photovoltaic plants, wind farms and storage facilities. As a charging point operator, the company provides end-to-end solutions to real estate partners, including charging infrastructure for electric vehicles and on-site self-consumption facilities. In this way, Eranovum covers the entire value chain, from the production of clean and competitive energy to its commercialisation to companies, industries or users of electric vehicles. The complementary nature of Eranovum's different areas of activity guarantees the supply of 100% renewable energy to EV drivers.

Since its creation in 2019, Eranovum, in alliance with international funds, has acquired, developed and built renewable energy projects in Spain whose investment exceeds €450 million with a total power of 565 MWp, equivalent to the energy needed by 250,000 homes.

The company supplies this energy mainly through its own capillary network of recharging points for electric vehicles, which has 1,600 recharging points planned for the coming months, both in urban and rural areas, and which it intends to increase to 9,000 by 2026. The company is committed to high-power charging (240 kW), which allows charging cycles of less than 20 minutes.

Eranovum is growing rapidly in all business lines in a market on the verge of an environmental revolution. The company has a fantastic opportunity for a Grants Manager based in Madrid. We would like this position to support our finance team, reporting to the Head of Finance.
