Are you ready to join a very experienced, growing, industry‑leading Renewables team, and develop your skills on transformational work that will make a huge impact towards delivering the energy transition? You will be responsible for undertaking a technical role on projects within our energy business; typically, our projects are associated with generation, storage, transmission and distribution of energy in the UK, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

You will be deployed to work on different projects, depending on their specific area of engineering expertise, and will include providing support for the following technologies.

• Onshore and offshore wind
• Solar PV
• Hydroelectric – run of river and pumped storage
• Grid connection works – cable route and substation civil
• Hydrogen production and storage
• Battery energy storage systems (BESS)

Projects include all stages of design from feasibility to detailed design and site construction supervision. Our clients are a mix between large energy utility generators to private developers.

Here’s what we’re looking for.

• Engineering or relevant science or master’s degree.
• Experience in a position where design was a major part of the role.
• Experience in the full cycle of project design delivery from inception to detailed design.
• Chartered or working towards chartership.

Areas of experience that would be beneficial include.

• Hydroelectric design – both run of river and pumped storage.
• Onshore wind – ideally with recent onsite experience, including projects with turbines >180m tip height.
• Offshore wind.

If you have general engineering experience within the energy market this would be preferable, however, it is not critical and we welcome your application if you have strong passion for, and would love to work in, renewable energy.
