About Downing
Downing is a fast growing, entrepreneurial investment manager headquartered in the City of London, with four offices across the UK and Sweden and over 200 members of staff.
We invest for return while caring about the world. Downing has a structured and thorough approach to integrating sustainability, stewardship and governance into all that we do.
At a company level, we are driven by our ESG strategy and obligations as a net zero carbon asset manager. This is underpinned by our commitment as a certified B Corporation, in which we are dedicated to the 'triple bottom line' of people, planet and profit.
At an investment level, ESG factors are assessed when looking at every opportunity. Then, through active ownership, we consider sustainability risk and the opportunities to improve.
We monitor ESG performance and consistently look to improve through various responsible investment policies and by being active signatories to several industry frameworks, including UNPRI, UKSIF, ICGN, IIGCC and the UK Stewardship Code. We see contributing to policy advocacy as a core investor duty.
Diversity is important to us, and we see the benefits that having a team with a range of backgrounds and perspectives can bring. We are bold and ambitious, straightforward and we support each other. These core values are vital to everything we do – from the businesses we invest in, to the people we hire.
About the team
Downing Renewable Developments (DRD) is a 22-strong renewable development and delivery business, responsible for identifying suitable renewable energy project opportunities and then undertaking the required grid connection, land agreement and planning processes to obtain successfully developed projects.Following the development phase of the projects, they will then be delivered using our in-house team and then operated long term.
Our initial activities were focussed on the UK, where we have a c.6GW pipeline of opportunities in the solar, wind and battery sectors. Following this we established Swedish and Finnish development teams to undertake project development activities in the Nordic region.
Role and responsibilities
The role is to join our growing team in Glasgow to lead in securing the necessary land agreements to support the development and delivery of high-quality renewable energy projects (predominantly wind, solar and storage).
In particular, the role-holder will be expected to lead activities such as identifying and engaging with potential landowners, undertaking initial feasibility assessments, negotiating Heads of Terms and then leading preparation and registration of land agreements including leases, options, wayleaves and letters of authority including instructing and managing the necessary legal support. Additionally, the role-holder will be required to mentor and manage more junior team members.
Key responsibilities will be leading the internal land function, team management, reporting, managing networks of land agents and legal support and engaging with other disciplines such as planning and engineering teams.
The role-holder is anticipated to have a wide contact network, a real desire to succeed and be able to work autonomously and propose innovative solutions to problems.
Key skills and experience
The ideal candidate will have the following:
Land / Legal / Planning Qualification (degree level as a minimum).
Minimum of 5-years experience within the renewable energy industry on Project Management, particularly working on solar PV, battery storage and onshore wind projects
RICS qualification
