When Liselotte talks about her career, she describes a journey shaped by curiosity and the desire to work closer to the heart of a business. She began her professional life at a large law firm, which she calls “an intense but incredibly valuable learning experience.” Over time, however, she felt something was missing. She wanted cross-disciplinary collaboration, a flatter and more accessible organisation, and a role connected more directly to commercial and operational decision-making.
That shift began prior to Sunrock, during the last year and a half of her traineeship, when she joined a smaller M&A energy team. This is where the energy transition first captured her attention. “It combined the energy of transactions with a clear sense of purpose and impact,” she explains.
An interim assignment eventually brought her into contact with Sunrock. From the very beginning, she felt at home. The organisation’s cross-functional way of working and its mission to scale clean energy solutions matched exactly what she had been looking for.
A Role Shaped by Variety
Today, Liselotte works in a hybrid role that brings together hands-on legal work, strategy, process design, and mentoring. Her scope spans everything from leases and rights of superficies to EPC and O&M agreements, general terms and conditions, and notices of default. She also develops templates, contracting playbooks, and guidelines that support Sunrock’s growth.
What she values most is the diversity of her work. “No two days are the same, and that’s exactly what I enjoy about the role,” she says. One moment she might be deep in a legal analysis or negotiating with a customer’s counsel, and the next she is designing a new process or coaching a colleague.
What Makes Sunrock Stand Out
For Liselotte, Sunrock’s strength lies in its combination of a young, ambitious team and a culture defined by accessibility and openness. She loves that colleagues challenge one another, share knowledge freely, and work closely across countries, departments, and seniority levels. This environment allows people to grow rapidly while also delivering direct value to clients and partners.
She believes Sunrock stands apart because it continuously anticipates rather than reacts. Whether the topic is EMS, BESS, flexible energy solutions, or grid congestion, teams collaborate to translate complexity into practical, forward-looking solutions.
Proud Moments in a Fast-Changing Environment
Instead of pointing to a single project, Liselotte is most proud of the transformation she has witnessed since joining Sunrock. The company expanded into new countries, reshaped teams, adjusted to shifting market realities, and evolved its business model beyond standard roof lease projects.
Reflecting on this period, she says: “I’m proud of the flexibility and creativity we have showed and how we adapted our business model.” For her, these experiences highlight the pace and dynamism of both Sunrock and the wider energy sector. “Our teams adapt fast and translate complexity into practical solutions. I think this allows Sunrock to move at the pace of the energy transition instead of being held back by it.”
A Deep Personal Connection to the Mission
Liselotte’s motivation comes from the knowledge that her work contributes to a cleaner and more future-proof energy system. She enjoys being hands-on and thinking critically, as well as constantly looking for ways to improve processes and outcomes. She feels energised by colleagues who are ambitious, open, and curious, and who share the commitment to move the energy transition forward.
Looking Ahead With Curiosity and Confidence
Looking ahead, Liselotte feels especially inspired by Sunrock’s more complex and multidisciplinary projects. These are the projects that combine multiple assets and services, require creative structuring, and bring technical, legal, financial, and commercial teams together.
As she puts it: “It’s really inspiring and valuable to help build something new, rather than simply applying an existing template. The space to rethink, improve, and refine; asking how we can make a project, process, or a contract more robust and future- proof, is something I really enjoy.”
Together with our Sunrock team, Liselotte looks forward to continuing to shape innovative solutions that meet the needs of clients and the realities of a decentralised energy system.
