Climate17 is supporting a leading renewable energy business with an urgent hire into its Commercial Asset Management team.

You’ll take ownership of a high-profile renewable energy portfolio (predominantly wind) and play a key role in protecting asset value, managing contracts and navigating complex commercial issues once assets are live.

The opportunity

• Managing disputes, warranty issues and performance-related claims
• Supporting and managing insurance claims
• Drafting and negotiating contracts and commercial agreements
• Acting as a key commercial interface with asset owners and internal stakeholders
• Supporting the transition of new assets into operations

Key requirements:

• Experience in renewable energy (wind preferred, solar also considered)
• Clear understanding of operational asset management and service-provider models
• Hands-on experience running or supporting at least one O&M tender
• Ability to draft and interpret contracts confidently
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
