Description

The regional offices for the current Operations Team role are based in North West England but, being largely field based, the role location will be largely determined by good access to motorway links etc. A large part of the activity will involve visiting customer wind farms on regular inspections and the candidate needs to be a highly organised individual with the ability to largely manage their own workload but still maintain regular contact and updates with the Operations team in the regional offices around the UK.

Wind Turbine Safety Rules (WTSRs) included as required.
Manage appropriate site activities including the induction of staff and 3rd parties on site (including all contractors LV & HV, Civils workers, etc). 
Work with the safety team to ensure accurate records are kept.
Recommend & manage any specialist services on site as required, this will require close liaison with the Operations Engineer for the site.
