The role
This is a key role within SSE Renewables’ Offshore Asset Management team, responsible for shaping and delivering long‑term strategic and short‑term operational planning across a portfolio of world‑class offshore wind farms. You’ll lead a team of planners to optimise maintenance, minimise downtime, and maximise return on investment across multi‑billion‑pound renewable assets.
By joining us, you’ll play a vital part in powering a net zero future — helping our offshore wind farms operate safely, efficiently, and sustainably for decades to come.
You will
* Lead long‑term and short‑term planning for offshore wind operations, driving efficiency, cost optimisation, and performance across the full asset lifecycle.
* Own and maintain production and revenue plans, integrating planned maintenance and realistic assumptions for unplanned downtime.
* Oversee work management systems (e.g., Maximo), ensuring best practice, automation, and consistency across all offshore assets.
* Build and lead a high‑performing planning team, fostering collaboration, inclusion, and continuous improvement.
* Champion safety and compliance, embedding SSE’s “zero harm” standards and industry best practice in all planning activities.
You have
* Proven experience in strategic asset planning within energy, utilities, or a similarly complex operational environment.
* Strong understanding of maintenance and production planning principles, ideally within offshore or renewables sectors.
* Proficiency in CMMS systems (Maximo essential) and planning tools (Primavera P6 or MS Project an advantage).
* Knowledge of Project Management Methodologies such as APM, PMI or PRINCE2, with the ability to apply structured project principles to operational delivery.
* Demonstrated leadership and stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to influence, communicate effectively and drive positive change across diverse or remote teams.
