Skills and Experience Required

The ideal candidate will have:

  • Relevant qualifications in land, legal, or planning (minimum degree level).
  • 3+ years of experience in renewable energy projects (solar PV, wind, battery storage).
  • Proven expertise in land assembly, managing budgets, and stakeholder relationships.
  • Familiarity with planning, consenting, and tender processes.
  • Strong communication, organizational, and multitasking skills.


Candidate Profile

The company values professionals who are:

  • Passionate about renewable energy.
  • Team-oriented and willing to foster a collaborative and fun workplace.
