Director, Business Development, Feedstock

At Mobius Renewables, we’re helping lead the global energy transition by transforming waste into renewable energy and measurable decarbonization. We’re a fast-growing team of expert innovators, engineers, and problem-solvers committed to advancing global sustainability, fueling a circular economy, and creating a cleaner future for all. Join us and help shape the future of renewable energy. Mobius Renewables is seeking a commercially driven Business Development professional focused on sourcing industrial organic feedstocks for host-site anaerobic digestion and co-digestion opportunities. The role will identify, qualify, test, and help secure feedstock streams that can increase methane production while remaining compatible with each host site's process, infrastructure, operating limits, permits, and feedstock acceptance requirements. This is a targeted industrial-feedstock origination role. The focus is on source-separated residuals and by-products generated by industrial production companies. Mobius is not seeking post-consumer food waste or material that requires DE packaging. Core Responsibilities Build and maintain a pipeline of industrial production companies that generate consistent, source-separated organic residuals or by-products suitable for anaerobic digestion or co-digestion. Develop a strong network across food and beverage manufacturing, protein and agricultural processing, dairy processing, breweries and distilleries, and other industrial sectors with potentially digestible organic residual streams. Originate opportunities directly with generators and establish relationships with plant, operations, environmental, sustainability, procurement, and waste-management decision-makers. Collect the operating and commercial information needed to screen each opportunity, including feedstock type, source, expected volume, consistency, seasonality, current disposition, transportation considerations, contamination risks, and commercial expectations. Coordinate representative sampling and laboratory testing of prospective feedstocks to determine whether the material is likely to provide a measurable methane-production benefit. Work with Engineering, Operations, EHS/Environmental, and Project Development to evaluate feedstock compatibility with the receiving host site, including storage and handling, pretreatment needs, digester process impacts, permit constraints, and the site's ability to safely and reliably accept the material. Do not advance a feedstock solely because it is available. Establish a clear technical, operational, and economic rationale for why the feedstock should be accepted at a specific host site. Coordinate follow-up testing, trial loads, or site-specific validation when required before commercial scale-up. Lead or support commercial discussions with feedstock generators, including supply terms, quality specifications, volume commitments, logistics responsibilities, pricing or tipping-fee structure, and remedies for off-spec material. Maintain an organized funnel of prospective feedstocks and provide clear status reporting from first contact through testing, site approval, commercial negotiations, and onboarding. Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure potential feedstocks support Mobius production, reliability, financial, and host-site objectives. Feedstock Qualification Approach Source qualification: Confirm the material is generated by an identifiable industrial production process and is available in a sufficiently consistent, controllable stream. Material qualification: Obtain representative samples and coordinate appropriate analytical testing, including methane-potential testing when applicable, plus characteristics needed by the receiving site to assess compatibility. Site fit: Match each feedstock to a specific host site based on the site's process design, receiving capability, operating envelope, existing feedstock mix, permits, and acceptance criteria. Value validation: Demonstrate tha…
