Welcome to Operations Execution

Join us in this role where you’ll be a technical go-to person for complex turbine faults and corrective work. You’ll prepare work packages, analyse turbine issues, support technicians offshore, and help develop safe and effective work instructions for Siemens direct-drive 6 MW turbines.

You’ll play an important role in:

• analysing turbine faults and providing immediate technical support to technicians offshore

• coordinating corrective tasks, including pre-sail briefings, debriefings, and short-term work planning
• creating and improving work instructions, troubleshooting trees, and technical documentation
• supervising, coaching, and sharing technical knowledge with less experienced technicians.

To succeed in the role, you:

• have strong troubleshooting experience with Siemens direct-drive 6 MW wind turbines or closely comparable turbine technology
• have completed an electrical apprenticeship, recognised technical training, or equivalent experience
• bring extensive knowledge of electrical and mechanical turbine systems, fault diagnosis, SCADA, and specialist tooling
• demonstrate strong safety awareness and can provide clear technical and operational guidance to others
• communicate effectively and are comfortable supervising, coaching, and transferring technical knowledge
• are able to work at height and offshore as part of a two-weeks-on/two-weeks-off rotation.

Maybe you’ve read the above and can see you have some transferable skills, even though they don’t quite match all the points. If you think you can bring something to the team, we still encourage you to apply.
