Imagine a future where you’re an enabler of the energy transition, bringing offshore wind projects to the UK Continental Shelf

Join us in this role where you’ll be responsible for project managing commercial deliverables on the UK Hornsea Three and/ or Hornsea Four execution projects. You’ll join the department leading the development of full-scope UK offshore wind projects.

Welcome to Region Europe Project Development
You’ll be part of the Commercial Project Development functional line where you, together with your colleagues, will collaborate with other commercial managers in the team and work full time on the Hornsea Three and/ or Hornsea Four offshore wind farm projects, reporting to the project Commercial Director.
