Description
A bit about Field
To reach Net Zero, we need to solve big problems. Field will fund, build and run the renewable infrastructure we need to tackle these challenges. At Field, we are showing that batteries are a totally viable part of our energy infrastructure - now, not in some distant future.
With a strong financial foundation and an extensive portfolio of battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in Italy, the UK, Germany, and Spain, we are actively driving the energy transition. Our most recent fundraising secured a £200 million investment from CVC DIF to accelerate our international growth and build a global BESS portfolio.
Field has been operating in Italy since September 2022, with an office in Rome that has grown to a team of 12 over the past two years, and is set to double in the next couple of years. It’s a group of specialists with diversified backgrounds — spanning project development, grid, origination, permitting, legal, strategy, finance, and electrical and civil engineering — bringing collective experience across 3+ GW of photovoltaic, 1.5+ GW of onshore wind, and 500+ MW of OCGT plants developed and constructed in Italy, alongside the origination of 3+ GW of BESS.
That mix of deep Italian renewables know-how and fresh BESS expertise has translated into a strong, diversified pipeline from North to South of Italy, with 400 MW expected to reach Ready-to-Build status in Q2 2026 and more than 1 GW of additional BESS capacity already in planning .
Overview
Field’s Italian office in Rome is looking for a project manager - permitting to work side‑by‑side with the Lead of Project Development of Field Italia to manage the authorisation process for battery storage assets in Italy.
