In this role, the person is a link between the offshore wind project and members of the local fishing community. They will be required to feed back to the concerns of fishers and try to alleviate these. They can also be involved in observation studies of fishing to get an understanding of what activities take place in the area.

Oversees the construction of the wind farm from site selection to the final installation of turbines. They coordinate the construction of a wind project, directing and coordinating activities ensuring that the project is complete on schedule and within budget.

Managing day-to-day business of wind farms, including maintenance, monitoring, optimisation of turbines, and adherence to environmental and sustainability standards.

They ensure that the safety and health risks arising from work activities are properly managed. They must control the key risk areas for employees, customers and the public who may be affected by what they do in the workplace.

Works with the local community on behalf of the developer to answer questions on the proposed project. Can focus on specific audiences, like the fishing community, or be more general. Supplies information and gives opportunities to engage.

Has overall responsibility for identifying potential project risks, conducting risk analyses and preparing and implementing risk management plans for project policies and procedures.

Manages the purchasing process for goods and services from suppliers for wind farm development. Their primary role is to ensure that the organisation has a reliable supply chain that meets its needs at the best possible cost, quality and delivery time.

Optimises sourcing, transportation and logistics to minimise environmental impact in wind energy projects.

Negotiates and manages Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) between wind energy projects and electricity buyers. A PPA is a long-term contract between an electricity generator and a customer.

Drive the promotion and sale of wind turbines, ensuring customer satisfaction and contributing to the company's growth in the renewable energy sector.

Has overall responsibility for managing the daily administrative and reporting functions during the construction and operations and maintenance phases of the project.

Someone who looks at investment opportunities in the wind energy sector, assesses financial viability, and provides recommendations for sustainable investment decisions.

Someone who specialises in creating and building financial models to analyse and forecast the financial performance of a wind farm.

Specialises in managing and analysing financial records and transactions for individuals, businesses and organisations.

Utilises advanced analytics and machine learning techniques to analyse wind energy data and optimise performance, efficiency and predictive maintenance.

Coordinates and tracks compliance with environmental permits and regulations, ensuring wind energy projects meet required standards.

Leads and directs the routine functions of the Human Resources (HR) department including hiring and interviewing staff, administering pay, benefits and leave, and enforcing company policies and practices.

Engages with policymakers and advocates for policies and regulations that support and promote the growth of the wind energy sector and sustainability goals.

Some solicitors specialise in the energy business and work with power companies, utilities and energy producers. Much of their work involves making sure the proper laws and regulations are followed. They can advise developers, regulators or investors on the development and operation of energy projects.

Uses Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology to help select the best sites for wind farm development.

Maintains, repairs and replaces systems and components. They identify and resolve technical problems and make sure the turbine is working properly.

Manages noise and vibration impacts from wind turbines and works to minimise potential disturbances.

Conducts geotechnical investigations and assessments to ensure the stability and integrity of foundations for offshore wind turbines.

Specialises in the design and installation of cables, on land or subsea for offshore wind farms, ensuring reliable and efficient power transmission.

Forms an integral part of the construction and operations phases and is typically required to oversee and report on all the electrical operational, installation and safety requirements for the project.

Responsible for service and maintenance work on all wind turbines and associated hydraulic and mechanical equipment.

Conduct studies to identify the most appropriate locations for wind turbines, analysing data on wind speeds and patterns, designing and testing wind turbine components.

A specialised type of engineer who works specifically on the design and analysis of wind turbine structures. Wind turbines are complex machines that must be built in the most sustainable and efficient way possible.

Designs and plans large infrastructure projects, such as wind farm foundations, access roads, and crane paths and pads.

Works on the electronic systems used to operate and monitor the turbine. They ensure the turbines can be operated remotely.
