Do you want to work closely with major global developers and support the development of the future offshore wind projects? Are you equipped to lead great projects and great people, ensuring operational and technical quality? Then, here is your chance to convert aspirations into actions!

Turn challenges into sustainable solutions

The green transition is rapidly accelerating. COWI is a pacesetter in sustainability as we move away from all fossil fuel projects. To solve the energy challenges of tomorrow, we are looking for a Senior Project Manager to join our Offshore Wind team. We are 175 enthusiastic colleagues working alongside our customers on some of most significant projects in Offshore Wind. And we are thrilled to have contributed to projects like Empire Wind (North America), St. Nazaire (France) and Formosa 2 (Taiwan).

Your key activities will be:

• Leading and motivating multidisciplinary project teams in our larger international Offshore Wind projects
• Contract management and risk management
• Planning and budgeting
• Handling project changes, realigning scope, deliverables and time schedule
• Develop and maintain good relations with clients

Your skills. Our team. Together we design the future.

The first step to success in this role is that you are eager to collaborate with the people around you, whether they are colleagues, partners or customers. Developing ties with others is something you do by acting respectfully and delivering on your promises. And you never get set in your ways, but keep exploring new insights and ways to improve.

On top of that, you will have:

• Relevant B.SC. or M.Sc. preferably within Engineering (Structural, Mechanical, Electrical or Environmental)
• 7+ years of experience in managing complex projects. It is advantageous if 5 of these years are within OW Packages (e.g., foundation, WTG, electrical, construction) or a closely related field
• The drive to manage, inspire and develop colleagues, both young and experienced
• Outgoing and customer-oriented attitude with great collaboration skills
• Professional communication skills in English (oral and written)
• Ability to work efficiently and structured

COWI has customers and projects that may require security clearance at various levels. There may therefore be requirements for security clearance in some projects/positions.
