Additional responsibilities include managing networks of land agents and legal advisors, team reporting, and collaboration with planning and engineering disciplines.


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.
  • Customer-focused with a proactive and professional approach.
  • Results-driven and solutions-focused.
