Electrical EngineerReading based, hybrid model (3 days in office, 2 at home)Up to £70,000 + benefitsUK based IPP working across solar and BESS sitesSince 2012, this independent power provider has been on a simple mission to contribute towards the net zero targets. They have done this through expanding their capabilities and remit in the renewable energy space. Over the last decade, they've expanded their operations to cover both development and construction of assets, allowing the team construct over 40 solar farms and have over 7 GW of projects in development today.A unique point to the group are the sheer size of their projects. They specifically specialise in NSIP projects, becoming a leader in this space. They also keep a large amount of the work in house, having full development capabilities, EPC and delivery as well as asset ownership.They have been successful in the gate 2 announcements, and have a large portfolio to build out as a result. This work makes it an extremely exciting time to join this group as you'd have exposure to the full project lifecycle of work, through delivery and procurement stages and into energisation.One other interesting factor to the role is the team this role falls in. You'll be working with a leader in the grid space with over 15 years of expeirence. This is a great team to be part of if you're ready to learn more about the delivery of projects and are looking for a supportive team to do so in. The main focus of the role is to support the technical and grid team, and so an engineering background (Electrical) is essential for this position. Additionally, ideal candidates will have experience with grid connections and project engineering on large scale renewable energy projects.The role:As this role is across the full project lifecycle, you'll have a wider variety of responsibilities. The main work will involve: Overseeing grid milestones and ensuring projetcs are able to reach them in a cost and time efficient way.Communicating with a variety of stakeholders, including both internal and external.Identify grid connection opportunities at a high voltage.Preparing and submitting these grid applications.Managing relations with DNOs and TOs.Providing techncial support throughout the construction phases of operations.Supporting through project acquisitions also.

Process Engineer - Calipatria CA Piper Maddox is partnering with an exciting biotechnology energy company based in California, that uses engineered microalgae to produce low-carbon liquid fuels at commercial scale. They are currently growing operations, engineering, and science teams, and are looking for a Process Engineer that will help bring the technology online. This is a rare opportunity to help launch a new category in the multi-billion-dollar SAF and liquid-fuels markets from the ground up. Key Responsibilities: Lead hands-on downstream processing operations, including dewatering, centrifugation, filtration, cell lysis, and extraction to support pilot-scale production and commercial scale-upSupport commissioning, startup, troubleshooting, and optimization of process equipment while responding to operational issues and implementing process improvementsAnalyze production data, investigate process deviations, and drive continuous improvements to maximize reliability, efficiency, and product qualityDevelop and maintain SOPs, batch records, operating procedures, and other process documentation to ensure safe and consistent plant operationsPartner with engineering, R&D, and operations teams to scale the microalgae platform into commercial renewable diesel and SAF production while growing into operations leadership and mentoring junior team members Background: 4–8 years in process engineering, ideally downstream bioprocessing — algae, fermentation, food/feed, or comparable bio-based manufacturingGenuinely hands-on — running the equipment, not just specifying it. Dewatering, centrifugation, filtration, lysis, extraction at pilot or commercial scaleHas supported commissioning and start-up work and can troubleshoot deviations as first responderDisciplined on documentation — SOPs, batch records, run data — and can turn performance data into improvementsChemical engineering degree is a plus. Comfortable in an outdoor production environment and with the physical side of the workWill grow into schedule and operations management as the technician team builds out, with scope to mentor a junior engineer
