Senior Development Project Manager | Renewable Energy | Ireland


I'm working with a growing renewable energy developer in Ireland looking to bring an experienced Senior Development Project Manager into their team.


This is an opportunity to take ownership of a portfolio of wind, solar and battery energy storage projects, playing a key role in progressing projects from early-stage development through planning consent, grid connection and ultimately towards construction.


You'll be joining an experienced development team with a strong track record of delivering renewable energy projects, with the opportunity to take real ownership of projects and contribute to the growth of the company's pipeline.


The Role

  • Lead a portfolio of wind, solar and BESS projects through the development lifecycle, from feasibility through to construction readiness.
  • Drive recently consented projects towards financial close and construction, managing post-consent conditions and procurement.
  • Identify new development opportunities, supporting site selection, feasibility assessments and pipeline growth.
  • Manage planning strategies, grid connection applications and engagement with relevant authorities, network operators, landowners and local communities.
  • Lead project due diligence, commercial negotiations and the management of external consultants.
  • Develop project budgets, business cases and progress reports for senior management.
  • Support and mentor less experienced members of the development team.


What We're Looking For

  • Ideally 7–10 years' experience in renewable energy project development in Ireland.
  • A proven track record of progressing wind, solar or BESS projects through planning consent.
  • Strong experience across land, planning, grid connections and stakeholder engagement.
  • Commercially minded, with experience in project appraisal, due diligence and contract negotiations.
  • Confident managing multiple projects and working collaboratively across a development team.
  • A full, clean driving licence and willingness to travel to project sites across Ireland.
