- Manage the delivery of all stakeholder engagement-related contracts ensuring that RWE’s interests and needs are met and that a high standard of deliverables are provided.
- Develop and maintain positive and collaborative relationships across the organisation and work as part of cross functional teams as required.

**The responsibilities of the role at the project level include**:

- Develop and implement stakeholder engagement strategies to support the development of the project portfolio and strategic plan.
