Wind Turbine Technicians for Burbo Bank Offshore Wind Farm

Do you have a self-motivated approach to troubleshooting, and do you assume job responsibility?

Join one of the leading companies in Europe within the fields of developing, constructing and operating onshore and offshore wind farms.

 

We have more than 30 years of experience in wind power, and up to 20 per cent of our power is produced from renewable resources. Our business is based on producing, distributing and trading energy and related products in Northern Europe. We are also one of the leading developers of offshore wind projects in the UK.

 

We are looking for Wind Turbine Technicians to work on the Burbo Bank Offshore Wind Farm based in Liverpool.

Areas of responsibility

You will perform work on our offshore turbines and on our onshore and offshore substations.

Your primary tasks will be to:

  • perform troubleshooting and repair of electrical and mechanical components
  • service offshore wind turbines
  • repair and assemble mechanical structures
  • plan service and maintenance works together with our technical team.

If you have the relevant experience and skills, your role may also incorporate High Voltage service and troubleshooting and/or working and acting as an Authorised Person.

Your profile

You will have a full apprenticeship in control and instrumentation, mechanical or electrical engineering. Further qualifications such as a BTEC or HNC would be advantageous, but not essential. An aptitude for working at height and off shore is essential.

You will be well experienced in troubleshooting on mechanical and electrical components. We will offer you on-the-job training as well as courses in offshore wind farm technology.

It is important that you are willing to work in a team and are prepared to enter into a rota system. Your job will be rota based, and due to that your working hours will vary.

Furthermore, you must be prepared to enter into a scheduled training programme for a period of approximately one year. The training programme includes working on some of our other offshore wind farms in the United Kingdom and Denmark. You will participate in construction projects both on site and on other locations in the United Kingdom and Northern Europe.

You will be self-motivated and enjoy working both independently and as a member of a team. You will be adept at troubleshooting and using your own initiative to complete tasks.

We offer

A unique job and many challenges. Through your work, you will contribute to fight climate changes and oil dependency as you will be participating actively in the development and implementation of modern energy solutions.

You will have substantial freedom with responsibility, a competitive salary and an informal and attractive working environment. We have an active employee policy which supports your career throughout the various phases of your working life.
