About the Role

At SSE Enterprise, we're seeking a highly skilled Development Project Manager to join our Transmission Projects team. This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of the high voltage electrical transmission network in the North of Scotland and contribute to our Transition to Net Zero.



Key Responsibilities

  • Evaluate project concepts and assess feasibility, developing options and initial designs, and driving refinement to a selected option that is consentable, constructable, and commissioned within the agreed budget and programme.
  • Manage the selection of suitable project sites and cable route selection options, leading the selection and coordination of key suppliers to undertake and perform required surveys and studies to inform initial designs.
  • Lead and manage projects through the planning and consenting process, ensuring the project meets the requirements of the Regulator, Local Authorities, and Statutory bodies.
  • Provide effective management of all key internal and external interfaces across various project workstreams in the development phase to ensure a successful handover to project delivery teams, including supply chain partners, environmental and consenting, planning, and regulatory interfaces.
  • Lead multi-discipline project teams involving both staff and external contractors, using robust project management systems, tools, and techniques to produce key project deliverables up to the project construction phase.
  • Provide effective Safety and Environmental Leadership to the project, ensuring the safety, health, and wellbeing of all personnel are managed, and the impact of the project on the environment is minimised.


Requirements

  • Degree qualified and membership of a recognised professional body would be beneficial.
  • Extensive experience in the early development phase of large capital projects, preferably in the Electrical generation/transmission sectors, and ideally managing projects through the consenting and regulatory approval stages.
  • Strong and demonstrable experience leading and managing key project interfaces across multiple stakeholder groups and external supply chain partners, particularly in a multi-contract delivery model and NEC3 contracts.
  • Advanced knowledge and understanding of project management systems, risk management, and large capital project governance.
  • Experience of managing and implementing CDM 2015 regulations would be beneficial.
  • Strong appreciation and focus on health and safety, and awareness of how to influence this at the design stage.
  • Excellent effective communication skills, both written and verbal, with experience of communication with both internal and external stakeholders at all levels, including members of the public.
