Development Project Manager

I am currently looking to speak with experienced Project Development professionals within the BESS and renewable energy sector.

Find out exactly what skills, experience, and qualifications you will need to succeed in this role before applying below.

I’m working on an exciting opportunity with a growing business developing grid-scale battery energy storage projects across the UK.

The role is for a Project Development Manager, with responsibility for taking greenfield BESS projects through the development and pre-construction phases.

This is a particularly interesting opportunity for someone with a strong background in project development, grid connections and renewable energy, who wants genuine ownership of projects and the opportunity to see them progress from early-stage development through to construction.

Key areas of responsibility

• Project Development – leading greenfield BESS projects through the development lifecycle

• Grid Connections – supporting grid applications, connection strategy and engagement with network operators

• Planning & Consenting – managing planning applications, environmental assessments and associated consents

• Land – supporting land agreements and maintaining relationships with landowners

• Technical Development – overseeing site investigations, surveys, design development and constructability

• Project Management – ownership of programmes, budgets, risks and project reporting

• Stakeholder Management – coordinating internal teams, consultants and external stakeholders

• Pre-Construction – supporting projects through development and into construction

The ideal background

I’d be particularly interested in speaking with candidates who have experience in:

• BESS / battery energy storage development
• Renewable energy project development
• Grid connections and working with network operators
• UK planning and consenting
• Land acquisition / land agreements
• Managing technical, environmental and planning consultants xwzovoh
• Taking projects from early-stage development through to construction

Salary: £60,000 – £80,000 + bonus & benefits

Location: London / Hybrid

The company is being kept confidential at this stage, but I’d be happy to provide more information about the business, projects and opportunity during a confidential call.
