For over ten years, Chargemap has been working to make electric vehicle charging simpler. Recognised as a leading player in France, we support millions of drivers and many companies with reliable, accessible solutions designed for real-world use.
Our products cover the entire user and customer journey:
a free mobile app widely used across Europe;
the Chargemap Pass, providing access to a large network of charging stations;
a comprehensive B2B solution to manage employee charging;
tools for charging networks to improve service quality and monitoring.
Based in Strasbourg, we are a team of over 100 passionate people who strongly believe that electric mobility is a key driver of the energy transition. We are growing in an ambitious, responsible and sustainable way.
The electric mobility sector is evolving rapidly, and Chargemap is growing fast while gradually expanding internationally.
To support this growth and better anticipate the regulatory changes that shape our activity, we are creating a permanent Public Affairs Manager position. The role focuses on building clear and constructive dialogue with institutions, anticipating upcoming regulatory developments and helping our teams prepare for them.
This position will help strengthen Chargemap’s credibility and contribute, at our level, to building a more coherent and accessible charging ecosystem for electric vehicle drivers.
Reporting to Tiphanie, our CMO, your responsibilities will include :
Working closely with the CEO and the CMO, you will design and lead Chargemap’s public affairs and regulatory monitoring strategy at both European and national levels, in line with the Group’s objectives.
You will identify priority topics, key levers and relevant stakeholders — including European institutions, national governments and regulators — to shape our positions and anticipate developments that structure the market.
You will help position Chargemap as a trusted and relevant stakeholder, recognised both in Brussels and at national level, making dialogue easier and strengthening our visibility in a highly regulated environment.
You will build and maintain strong relationships with European public authorities (European Commission, Parliament, EU agencies) and national bodies (ministries, central administrations, ministerial offices), as well as regulators and industry associations.
You will take part in working groups and strategic forums at both European level (European Commission, ChargeUp Europe, etc.) and French level (AVERE France, CRE, professional federations), contributing to sector discussions and defending the Group’s priorities.
Depending on the topic, you will involve relevant internal stakeholders (CMO, Sales Director, internal teams) to support positions or provide expert input.
You will develop and share clear, accessible messaging on regulatory topics, whether European (interoperability, AFIR, standards) or national (pricing transparency, service obligations, energy regulation).
You will help build a consistent narrative over time, clarifying the Group’s role within the French and European ecosystem and strengthening its credibility with institutions and industry stakeholders.
You will prepare and coordinate institutional communications, such as opinion pieces, public statements, briefing notes and analytical papers.
You will actively monitor legal and regulatory developments at both European and national levels, identifying risks and opportunities for the Group and anticipating changes to allow timely adjustments to products and strategy.
You will analyse the practical impact of draft and upcoming regulations in close collaboration with Legal, Product, Data and Development teams, and translate them into clear operational recommendations.
You will share your analyses with the Executive Committee and internal teams to support decision-making, prioritisation and cross-functional alignment on regulatory matters.
These responsibilities are not set in stone and may evolve depending on business needs and your areas of interest.
The salary range is between €40,000 and €45,000 gross per year. This is complemented by a performance-based profit-sharing scheme, which can reach up to 12% of the annual gross salary.
Joining us also means enjoying the following benefits:
The possibility to work remotely up to four days per week after an initial onboarding and training period;
A sustainable mobility allowance of up to €300 per year to encourage eco-friendly transportation (cycling, carpooling, etc.);
Meal vouchers worth €8 each, provided via SWILE;
A fully covered family health insurance plan (ALAN), 100% paid for you and your family;
Incentives to switch to electric vehicles (Chargemap & Mister EV products, and access to a shared electric vehicle for €1 per day);
Training on the electric mobility ecosystem (electric vehicles, charging stations, and the wider industry);
A flexible working environment where your creativity is encouraged and can truly thrive;
Brand-new offices located in the newly developed eco-district of Cronenbourg in Strasbourg.
You will join a fast-growing company in a rapidly evolving sector: electric mobility. You will work in an environment where ideas are listened to, experimentation is encouraged and teams move forward together, supported by passionate colleagues across Marketing, Legal, Data, Product and HR.
You have at least 4 years’ experience in public affairs, institutional relations or institutional communication, ideally in a regulated sector (energy, mobility, data, telecommunications). You have experience working with public institutions, regulators or sector working groups.
You have a solid understanding of European regulatory issues, including competition, transparency, data protection, interoperability and AFIR standards. Knowledge of institutional dynamics outside the EU (especially the United States) is a plus.
You are comfortable engaging internal stakeholders (Sales Director, CMO, Product Managers, etc.) to strengthen messaging or represent the company on key topics. You enjoy working collaboratively and adapt your approach to different contexts.
You are able to analyse, simplify and structure complex topics. You write institutional notes, official positions, speeches and briefing materials, and can clearly rephrase regulatory texts in line with the company’s interests.
You are diplomatic, well-organised and comfortable delivering sensitive messages to a wide range of stakeholders. Your interpersonal skills and political awareness allow you to build long-term relationships and exercise constructive influence.
You enjoy analysing the business and operational impact of regulations and translating your insights into clear, actionable recommendations aligned with the Group’s strategy.
At Chargemap, AI is part of everyday work. You will use it to speed up regulatory analysis, summarise complex texts, compare regulatory frameworks and optimise the production of institutional documents.
Given regular interactions with European institutions and stakeholders, full professional proficiency in both English and French (written and spoken) is essential. Knowledge of another European language (particularly Spanish, German or Portuguese) is a strong asset.
We make a point of reviewing and responding to all applications, provided they include a cover letter. This letter is essential for your application to be considered, as it helps us understand why you would be the ideal candidate for this role.
