Senior Project Manager / Project Director – Offshore Wind Pre-Assembly & Installation
Hybrid – UK, Denmark or Poland | Permanent or Contract | £100,000+ negotiable
We are supporting a major international wind-energy services business with the appointment of a Senior Project Manager or Project Director to lead one of Europe’s largest offshore wind pre-assembly and installation projects.
This is a major fixed-price contract valued at approximately €40 million. The project is expected to begin in Q1 2027, with the project delivery team now being assembled ahead of contract signature.
The successful candidate will be the overall project leader, taking operational and commercial responsibility for delivery. The position can be based from an office in the UK, Denmark or Poland, operating on a hybrid basis with regular travel to the project site.
The opportunity:
This is a senior, hands-on delivery role requiring someone who understands the operational and contractual demands of large-scale offshore wind pre-assembly and installation.
You may currently be working as a Senior Project Manager, Project Director, Contracts Manager or Operations Manager. Your current title is less important than your ability to take ownership of a substantial fixed-price project and lead it successfully from mobilisation through delivery.
