- Work with leasing programme teams to undertake technical analysis, review external reporting and contribute to decision-making
- Initiate and support academic partnerships and represent The Crown Estate on joint-industry projects and forums
- Engage pro-actively with colleagues across the Marine business to assist with technical queries and identify opportunities for innovation and value creation
Knowledge, experience & skills:
- Knowledge of the importance of engineering, data (modelling and surveying) and techno-economic analysis in the offshore renewable energy industry
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, stakeholder engagement and report-writing skills and the ability to distil complex analysis into easily relatable insights
- Candidates are expected to come from a diverse range of technical backgrounds. Experience in one or more of the following is desirable
- Working with complex technical data (ideally, metocean or seabed geology) and engaging with stakeholders to shape valuable data products.
- Offshore renewable energy project engineering, preferably working across multiple engineering disciplines
