Job Title: Network Infrastructure Manager
About the Role
We are seeking a skilled Network Infrastructure Manager to oversee the creation, socialisation and delivery of our grid strategy.
This role will involve overseeing all grid-related activities across an evolving energy portfolio, from early stage connection applications through to delivery, commissioning and ongoing optimisation.
Initially focused on the Irish power market, the remit is expected to broaden over time across the UK.
The Opportunity
* You will be the go-to subject matter expert, shaping grid strategy and ensuring the business remains ahead of regulatory, technical and industry developments.
* You will work across a diverse asset base including thermal generation, solar, wind, and BESS.
* You will develop and deliver the organisation's grid asset strategy across Ireland and the UK.
* You will stay ahead of key regulatory and grid developments, contributing insights to consultations and industry forums.
* You will interpret complex technical grid policy, identifying and shaping opportunities for new and existing projects.
* You will represent the business in discussions with TSO/DSO and industry bodies.
Key Requirements
* You will have deep knowledge of UK and Ireland grid connections, testing and compliance processes.
* You will have proven experience managing the end-to-end grid connection lifecycle: site selection, feasibility, applications, offers, design, commissioning/testing and energisation.
* You will have a strong understanding of grid value drivers (constraints, curtailments, firmness, TLAFs, etc.).
* You will be able to work independently and deliver to deadlines, with sound judgement on when to collaborate.
* You will have confident stakeholder engagement across the ecosystem: TSO/DSO, equipment manufacturers, contractors and internal teams.
* You will have experience conducting feasibility assessments for new sites.
* You will have a solid understanding of Grid Code requirements across a range of asset types (thermal, renewable, solar, flexible demand).
* Knowledge of power markets and commercial value drivers is an advantage.
About You
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys ownership, complexity, and being at the centre of technical, commercial and regulatory decision-making in the energy transition.
We offer a challenging and rewarding environment where you can make a real impact.
