Job description

Fuse Energy is a forward-thinking renewable energy startup on a mission to deliver a terawatt of renewable energy - fast. We're combining first-principles thinking with cutting-edge technology to build a radically better energy system. We raised $100M from top-tier investors including Multicoin, Balderton, Lakestar, Accel, Creandum, Lowercarbon, Ribbit, Box Group and strategic angels like Nico Rosberg, the Co-Founder of Solana and GPs behind Meta, Revolut, Spotify, Uber and more.

We're creating a fully integrated energy company: from developing solar, wind, and hydrogen projects to real-time power trading and distributed energy installations. By selling directly to customers, we cut out the middleman, lower costs and pass on savings to customers.

But we're not stopping there. We're also building the Energy Network: a decentralised platform of smart devices that rewards users in Energy Dollars for electrifying their homes, shifting usage to off-peak hours, and helping balance the grid. This network strengthens grid stability - a critical foundation for scaling AI data centers and other energy-intensive industries.

Responsibilities

• Lead Fuse's delivery of large-scale solar PV and renewable infrastructure projects, ensuring safe, on-time and on-budget execution to the highest quality standards
• Oversee all pre-construction and construction activities in compliance with CDM and UK Health & Safety regulations
• Manage projects end-to-end, from design and procurement through commissioning and handover
• Build strong relationships with clients, subcontractors, DNOs and local authorities while coordinating internal teams across engineering, procurement and construction
• Develop and track budgets, schedules and risks
• Support tendering and procurement, streamline internal processes and conduct site visits to verify progress and compliance

Requirements

• Proven track record delivering utility-scale solar PV (5 MW+) projects
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical, Mechanical, Civil or Industrial Engineering (or equivalent)
• Strong technical understanding across civil, electrical and mechanical disciplines
• SMSTS and CSCS certifications desired
• Excellent communication, leadership and stakeholder management skills
• Deep knowledge of CDM Regulations HSE compliance and construction best practices
• Commercially sharp, analytical and structured in delivery
• Willingness to travel to project sites across the UK where required

Benefits

• Competitive salary
• Biannual bonus scheme
• Fully expensed tech to match your needs
• Deliveroo breakfast and dinner for office-based employees
