Structure the landmark deals, bring the full force of Amazon, and put AWS at the center of the energy transition. ### About the role Global energy demand will rise sharply over the coming decades, and the power and utilities sector is racing to modernize the grid, decarbonize, electrify transport, and meet power demand not seen in generations. AWS is investing billions in generation and delivery to power sustainable data center growth and is reinventing energy workflows with AI and the cloud. We are seeking a Principal Business Development leader to own AWS's EMEA energy partnerships at the intersection of technology, AI, infrastructure, and delivering mutual business value through partnerships. You will own the EMEA partnership portfolio end-to-end with the region's largest and most strategically significant P&U relationships carrying multi-year portfolio responsibility rather than a single account. You will drive the regional go-to-market motion, build and launch pipeline, lead strategic planning and the development of cloud and AI strategic agreements, and integrate the commercial relationships of EMEA companies that supply infrastructure inputs to Amazon into a single, 360-degree relationship while collaborating on solution development, partner engagement, and field enablement. This is a Principal-level individual-contributor role with no direct reports working on high complexity, high ambiguity, challenges leveraging senior level relationships. You will Think Big where there is no playbook, structuring first-of-their-kind agreements and novel commercial models in markets where AWS's position is still forming and make high-judgment calls with incomplete information (Are Right, A Lot). You will Earn Trust as the advisor of choice to energy-industry CxOs, close the region's largest multi-party agreements, and act as a force multiplier who raises the bar across the BD team through mentorship, reusable playbooks, and visible thought leadership (Hire and Develop the Best, Invent and Simplify). ### Key job responsibilities - Own and execute the EMEA go-to-market partnership plan across generation, transmission, distribution, and energy trading, including solution prioritization, repeatable pipeline generation, competitive positioning, and scalable partner co-sell motions (ISVs, SIs, OEMs, utilities). - Structure and close the region's largest strategic agreements encompassing a confluence of commitments to technology, infrastructure, and AI with major EMEA energy customers. - Serve as strategic advisor to customer executives (CEO, CFO, CIO, CTO, VP), building trusted relationships that span infrastructure partnerships and enterprise cloud and AI adoption. - Act as the managed gateway between EMEA account teams and AWS Infrastructure and power-procurement teams, coordinating and elevating commercial power discussions. - Orchestrate a pan-Amazon network (Retail, Prime, Transportation, Fulfillment, Data Center Infrastructure, Amazon Business, Sustainability) into EMEA engagements as inputs to strategic agreement value propositions. - Partner with sales and technical teams to design, test, and scale go-to-market sales plays, proven in key accounts and then scaled across thousands through the field and partners. - Maintain the EMEA named-account and white-space map, and hand qualified opportunities to Sales with clear business driver, stakeholders, and urgency. - Mentor and uplevel BD peers and field teams, codifying wins into reusable playbooks (a natural fit with the Technical Field Community and the co-developed sales-play model). ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Oct 20, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 25, 2026 - Last checked: Nov 1, 2026 - Listed for: 12 days - Location: GB, London[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10584151/partnerships-and-strategic-business-development-lead-aws-power-utilities-partnerships-business-development) ## Hiring at Amazon - Open jobs: 19,174 - New in the last 7 days: After two weekly collections - Tracked since: Jul 10, 2026 [All Amazon jobs](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/) · [Weekly hiring report](/reports/hiring/) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [AI Senior Sales Specialist - Health, Public Sector](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/6c94051910c570ce5275/) GB, London ### [AWS Commercial Sales Internship](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/88bc7fe03190f4e29ab5/) GB, London ### [Account Manager, AWS Industrials](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/919b8dab6be9825ebad0/) GB, London ### [Account Manager, Amazon Vendor Services (AVS)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/e4acdf245ffc0456f408/) GB, London ### [Account Manager, Industrials, AWS Industrials](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/e4469527cdd375a48d94/) GB, London ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Business Development Engineer - Low Voltage Partnerships](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/eaton/jobs/30b81cf2c1d772819430/) Eaton · Dubai, ARE ### [Strategic Business Development Executive](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/fedex/jobs/0c99216a05e7380f6ce7/) FedEx ### [Strategic Partnership and Business Development Manager](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/thermo-fisher-scientific/jobs/2de48cf731e99694f1bf/) Thermo Fisher Scientific · Taipei, Taipei City, Taiwan ### [Senior Director, Business Development & Strategic Partnerships](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/applied-materials/jobs/235c59269682bb3a5c8c/) Applied Materials OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
