The business has 380 MW of grid-connected BESS projects with a further 90 MW under construction in Europe. For their German pipeline, they are aiming to have 500 MW+ in operation by the end of 2028, meaning you will have plenty of projects to get started with! They are looking for a person who will be the main expert for grid connections and high voltage engineering in the German team. You will have support from engineers who specialise in BESS on the UK team, but you will have a full scope of responsibility for grid connections in Germany.

  • Offer technical liaison and support relating to Distribution System Operator (DSO) interfaces
  • Support pre-contract readiness and work closely with procurement on delivery-phase activities
  • Take ownership of defining scope and delivering electrically focused projects
  • Provide engineering leadership and guidance when the Head of Engineering is unavailable

Requirements:

  • Minimum 3-5 years' experience with high voltage engineering, alongside high voltage grid connections in Germany
  • Electrical Engineering degree or similar
  • Knowledge of VDE-A-RN 4120 and experience complying with this in Germany
  • Experience communicating with DSOs/TSOs in meetings & via phone call
  • Understands the differences with regional DSOs and how to liaise regarding grid access
  • Fluent German & English (C1/C2) is required
  • Onshore renewables experience is required

Nice to have:

  • A person with an electrical & commercial background would be highly valued e.g. stakeholder management
