The company is committed to helping businesses transition to sustainable energy through innovative design, seamless project development, and accessible financing options.

We’re looking for a Project Development Manager to be the driving force behind our project pipeline—taking opportunities from early-stage leads through to construction-ready status and overseeing delivery to completion.

This is a commercially minded, coordination-heavy role. You’ll work closely with engineers and technical consultants, but your core strengths are in project management, stakeholder alignment, and commercial judgement—not deep engineering. You think in project steps and flows, and are the master conductor of the process.
