5 months ago


Glasgow, United Kingdom SSE Full time

SSE has big ambitions to be a leading energy company in a low carbon world. Following our commitment to invest £20.5 billion in low carbon projects to 2027, we have significant growth plans and are well on our way to achieving our ambition to build a world that's more sustainable and inclusive for you, your family, the community you live in and for generations to come. We are proud to be playing a critical role in the net zero transition, as we aim to more than treble the net capacity in operation to 13GW and grow renewable energy output five-fold to over 50TWh over the next 10 years.

Join us on our journey to net zero and help us power change.

**About the Role**

**Base Location**: Flexible, however our preference is that you will be based in one of our key UK or Ireland sites, which includes but is not limited to Glasgow, Belfast or Dublin.

**Salary**: Up to £68,200 / €96,000 depending on skills and experience + performance-related bonus + a range of benefits to support your finances, wellbeing and family.

**Working Pattern**: Permanent | Full Time/Part Time | Flexible First options available

We have an exciting opportunity to join the Onshore Energy Analytics Team to lead the delivery of meteorological measurement campaigns and wind turbine power performance assessments. This will be a key role in supporting SSE Renewables' extensive pipeline of wind farm projects in their development, construction, and operational phases.

**Some of your main accountabilities will include**:

- Project managing wind measurement campaigns from concept to delivery.
- Writing, reviewing and updating Risk Assessments and Method Statements in advance of site work.
- Managing contractors to ensure site work is undertaken to our required quality and safety standards.
- Responsibility for the deployment of Lidar devices and associated Power Supply Units, internally or by contractors, including setup and commissioning.

- In-depth knowledge of wind measurement methods in the wind industry, such as meteorological masts and Lidar deployment.
- Experience of managing wind measurement campaigns and physical deployment, commissioning, and troubleshooting of wind measurement equipment.
- A strong track record working with contractors to ensure high HSE standards.
- A background encompassing data reporting, wind resource assessment and solar energy measurement methods would be an advantage.
