About the role
Fastned is on a mission to accelerate the transition to electric mobility. Since 2012, we have been building and operating a rapidly growing network of iconic fast-charging stations across Europe powered entirely by solar and wind energy. With 500+ colleagues, we now operate over 450+ stations across nine countries, with an ambitious goal of reaching 1,000 stations by 2030. We are not building infrastructure for its own sake. Every station we open is a tangible step in the transition away from fossil fuels.

In 2025, we reported €122.4 million in charging revenue: a 47% year-on-year increase, exceeding €100 million in annual revenue for the first time.

Leading the Finance Domain: lead and inspire a talented Finance team of 43 professionals, bringing clear direction, fostering growth in culture that balances a bold mission with financial rigour.
