Apply for the Senior Wind Development Manager
Location: London
Job Description:

London, UK (Hybrid, 2 days per week in the office)

Our client is a renewable energy IPP with an onshore wind pipeline at early stage, sites identified but nothing through consent yet. This role exists to take that pipeline forward: through consent, through land rights, and on to ready to build and FID. Consent is the priority. Everything else follows from getting that right.

The Company

Development sits under a single Head of Development, whose remit spans site acquisition, grid strategy, and delivery through to energisation. This role plugs straight into a team that already knows how to get projects built, working alongside site acquisition and grid strategy to keep wind moving at the same pace as the rest of the pipeline.

Key Responsibilities

  • Take the wind pipeline through consent, working sites already identified rather than starting from scratch.
  • Own land rights negotiations across the wind portfolio.
  • Drive projects from consent through to ready to build and FID.
  • Work alongside the site acquisition and grid strategy teams to keep wind on pace with the rest of the development pipeline.

Experience & Qualifications

  • A strong, evidenced track record of getting onshore wind projects through consent. This is the core requirement for the role.
  • Minimum 7 years’ experience in onshore wind development.
  • Strong land rights negotiation experience.
  • Experience driving projects to ready to build or FID.
  • Origination experience is a bonus. This pipeline already exists, so the immediate need is consent, land rights, and delivery through to FID.
  • Discretionary bonus of up to 10%.
  • 25 days holiday.

Mint Selection is committed to inclusive hiring and equal opportunities. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and are focused on building diverse teams that reflect the global energy transition.
