About The Role
Energise your career, accelerate a net-zero future - #Renewablesjobs
Our ambition is to be a distinctive and recognised leader in the UK and Ireland, developing our assets under operation to c.5GW by 2030. This is your opportunity to join us as Asset Manager where you will have responsibility of managing renewable assets on behalf of the investor, ensuring that the day-to-day performance of the asset is in line with the business plan.
The Opportunity
As Onshore Wind Asset Manager you will have close working relationships with the O&M teams pursuing and optimising the performance and returns, whilst also looking to identify continual improvements. You will oversee a variety of operational, commercial and financial matters associated to the running of their operational portfolio and a diverse mix of wind turbine technologies.
Pay, Benefits And Culture
At EDF Renewables we are dedicated to doing good things. We take pride in tackling the world’s biggest challenge, and we’re leading the fight. Doing good isn’t always easy, and we can’t always do it as individuals. We embrace ideas to create an innovative and open-minded culture regardless of role. A culture where we trust the best versions of ourselves to make good things happen.
We’ve made it this far by being collaborative, innovative and agile. We’re self-starters and we want you to be too.
Alongside a competitive salary, potential for an annual bonus, and a market-leading pension scheme, our employee benefits include flexible benefits tailored to your lifestyle – from electric vehicle leasing and private healthcare to extra holiday and more.
Everyone is welcome at EDF; we’re committed to building a workforce that reflects gender balance, social mobility, and inclusion of minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+ communities, and those with disabilities. As a Disability Confident employer, we will support applicants requiring adjustments.
What You’ll Be Doing
You’ll ensure the contractual compliance with all commercial agreements as well as stakeholder relationships to include; equity investors, OEMs, Independent Engineers and landowners.
Locations: Your location is flexible, but you will be primarily visiting assets at our site in South West Scotland. We promote hybrid and remote working within the UK and will provide equipment to work comfortably from home
Why EDF Renewables?
EDF Renewables’ purpose is to accelerate a net-zero future where clean energy powers our lives. We want to set the pace and, where necessary, disrupt the status quo and transform perceptions. We are here to combat climate change; this is a clear and tangible goal for us and is what galvanises us to bring the right solutions to the UK and Ireland.
We have the benefit of being part of EDF in the UK and we also have the support of EDF Renouvelables, one of the largest renewable energy companies in the world.
We’ve defined a hugely ambitious strategy to grow from 1GW installed capacity today to 10GW by 2035.
To deliver against our strategy we are investing across a range of technologies, including offshore and onshore wind, solar PV, and battery storage. Our portfolio focus is on end-to-end delivery and value creation starting at development and design stage, through to construction and operations.
Join us, and let’s do good together.
