Job Description:
Here at DNV, what we do matters. Whether it’s helping the Energy Industry transition to a more decarbonised and sustainable future or helping protect life, property and the environment, every day, what you do will make a difference. This is our shared purpose and one our people are proud to be part of.
Our highly respected Renewables department in the UK and Ireland provides consulting engineers, data insights, deep technology expertise, modelling and software solutions. We do this to enable the successful rollout of renewable power and to deliver the energy transition. We are engaged in all phases, from initial concept evaluation through construction and commissioning into operations, life extension and decommissioning. The main customers are turbine manufacturers, wind farm developers, owners and operators, as well as investors.
Within Renewables, our Wind Projects section comprises 40 engineers who deal with everything in the wind farm’s lifespan from the development of the project through its operation to decommissioning, taking in analysis of energy production as well as technical assurance to financial transactions. The Independent Engineering team within our section is primarily focussed on due diligence work; identifying, weighing up and helping mitigate technical risks in wind farm investments. The team also supports owner’s engineering and other varied technical consulting services throughout the section and beyond.
Our primary market is the UK & Ireland, with key hubs in Bristol, London, Glasgow and Dublin. However, we also collaborate with colleagues across the globe, sharing our knowledge and expertise, to help deliver critical projects for our customers around the world.
Why work with us?
Our projects are varied and challenging. Our teams are made up of world leading subject matter experts and highly skilled generalists, who bring their specific knowledge, passion and skills together to find solutions for our customer’s most complex projects. We are actively growing and increasing the range of challenges we solve for our customers and our planet.
Across DNV, we have a wealth of experience in all energy vectors and with over 5000 people working to deliver the energy transition, our expertise covers the full breadth and depth of the energy value chain.
What you would be doing:
Our consultants fulfil a range of roles on a variety of projects. You’ll be responsible for leading our engagement with key customers, getting to the heart of their challenges and proposing appropriate solutions; then, once the solution has been defined and agreed with the customer, you’ll collaborate with our expert teams to deliver it.
Our engineers and consultants are also expected to take on project and bid management as part of their work. You’ll often find yourself project managing your own projects while providing your technical expertise as a team member for other projects. We appreciate that not everyone will have been exposed to such a broad range of opportunities and activities, so we provide comprehensive technical, project management and sales training to support and develop your skills as you progress your career with us.
There are travel opportunities too for engaging with customers and visiting project sites as part of your role. These are mostly around the UK & Ireland but as a global organisation, occasionally may take you further afield.
We value all our people and the contributions they make to our business, so it’s important that our rewards make us all feel valued here. That’s why we offer a flexible reward and benefits package, allowing you to choose the things that matter most to you, including;
* Exceptional Development and career progression opportunities with regular development discussions with your manager
* Non-contractual Profit Share Scheme
* Lifestyle benefits: 26 days annual leave + bank holidays, opportunity for up to 10 days unpaid leave, sabbatical leave, flexible working options

Also, our Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) provides free and confidential support for issues including work, family, relationships, money and health and we provide free fruit in our offices
* Financial Benefits: including a Pension Scheme with employer pension contributions up to 9%, Life Assurance and Income Protection
* Travel benefits: Season Ticket Loan, Cycle to Work Scheme, Electric Vehicle Salary Sacrifice Scheme (for personal use)
* Re-imbursement of relevant Professional Membership Fees (up to £570)
