Name: Mateusz Cegielski
Title: Business Development Executive
Region: Stockon-on-Tees, United Kingdom
Time with company: Since April 2022
What do you do at Energy Resourcing?
I joined Energy Resourcing in April 2022, and I’m responsible for driving growth and expanding business opportunities. I research potential markets, generate leads, build relationships with clients, develop proposals, negotiate deals, and manage existing client relationships.
In addition to my client-focused responsibilities, I actively collaborate with our partners to create synergies and maximize business opportunities. By fostering collaboration and staying on top of industry trends, I ensure that Energy Resourcing remains at the forefront of the ever-evolving energy sector.
How did you get into your current career?
I worked as an Account Manager for the past five years, where I led the onsite operation for an international blue-chip client and was responsible for the logistics surrounding a Ministry of Defence contract. When Energy Resourcing reached out to me and offered me this position, I understood that it was time to move on and embark on a new adventure.
Are you working on any specific projects at the moment?
I’m currently nurturing our relationships with a few international clients, fostering strong partnerships and collaboration between our partners and external businesses in various sectors. By actively engaging with these clients, I aim to support and facilitate their endeavours in the fields of hydrogen, carbon capture, and wind energy. I seek to identify synergies, share knowledge, and explore opportunities for joint initiatives that can drive innovation and sustainable growth. Additionally, I strive to establish mutually beneficial connections between our international clients and other external businesses, fostering an ecosystem of collaboration that can generate positive impact in the renewable energy landscape.
What’s the best part of your role?
Meeting new people, understanding their issues, and crafting bespoke solutions. Every day is different, and although organisation and planning are extremely important to me, I often find myself improvising due to the ever-changing nature of the business – and I absolutely love it.
What is the most challenging part of your role?
The fact that the day only has twenty-four hours doesn’t help. My current focus is Teesside, which is an absolute mine of potential regarding renewable energy. I would love to be able to help every client that asks us for support!
Any words of advice for young graduates?
Ensure that you constantly pursue knowledge, expand your horizons, and delve deep into subjects of interest. Surround yourself with like-minded people and don’t hesitate to seek their support whenever needed.
What do you like to do outside of work?
My absolute passion is a relatively uncommon Brazilian martial art called Capoeira, which I have been training in for the last ten years. Alongside Capoeira, I also practice Muay Thai from Thailand. I dedicate every free moment to training techniques and exploring ways to connect them. I also managed to drag my son into it!
Gaming is my second addiction that I have successfully passed on to my son. We spend a lot of time together playing Minecraft or competing in strategy games.
What was the last book you read?
That would be ‘Horus Rising’ by Dan Abnett. I’m an absolute fan of Warhammer 40k universe (yes, that’s another addiction).
Film you watched?
John Wick 4! No spoilers but it left me quite gutted.
Music you listened to?
I love mixing styles, making my playlist probably the worst nightmare for DJs. It ranges from Bruce Dickinson and Nina Simone to Imagine Dragons and Audioslave, and even includes melodic techno artists like Salvatore Ganacci, Anyma and Chris Avantgarde.
