Job Description:

If you have been working on grid connections for projects through development stages and are looking for the opportunity to work through construction and energisation stages, then this role may be interesting for you! This role is with a growing IPP working on solar and energy storage across the UK. Their portfolio of projects is extremely healthy with over 7GW of projects at various stages in the project lifecycle. This pipeline is made up of both transmission and distribution level connections, with this role focusing heavily on DNO level connections. Their pipeline is across various stages of the development lifecycle, ranging from early development stages and through construction into energisation and operation stages. Additionally, they have NSIP projects with other developers in the sector. The team is hiring for this position due to strong growth and grid prospects. The team already has 2 experienced members, and is seeking a third member to extend their knowledge and understanding.

Requirements:

  • Managing grid connection portfolios for both transmission and distribution level connection agreements for projects ranging in size, up to and including 50MW+
  • Working closely with distribution and transmission operators for these connection agreements, liaising for grid offers and managing grid milestones
  • Working closely with consultancies for these offers
  • Working with internal developments and construction teams for these milestones also
