  • Build a BESS business from zero to scale
  • Equity‑style role with long‑term value creation

About Our Client

Our client is an emerging energy platform focused on building next‑generation battery energy storage solutions. The organisation is entrepreneurial in nature, backed by strong intent to scale a sustainable, technology‑led storage business in India.

Job Description
