When offshore, we design both floating and bottom-fixed structures. Since 1980, we have been involved in more than 1,000 wind power projects in 70 countries.

You will be fully responsible for the management of a wide range of offshore wind projects.

• Leading project discipline leads and design teams, leading and managing stakeholders, suppliers and partners
• Managing contracts along with risk management, quality assurance, document control and cost control for the projects
• Managing tenders for selected prospects

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:

• A bachelor’s or master’s degree or PhD, preferably in civil engineering
• +10 years of experience in the design of offshore wind foundations or similar experience
• Experience in project management with knowledge of the marine and offshore segments
• Experience in managing teams in a global organisation
