13 hours ago
Are you enthusiastic about the green transition and making renewable energy solutions happen? Do you want to participate in cutting-edge offshore wind projects like Empire (US), St. Nazaire (FR), Arcadis Ost (DE) in a global team and make your mark in building a foundation for a sustainable future? Here is your chance to convert aspirations into actions
Create the solutions that will enable a better tomorrow
Since 1980, we have been involved in more than 1,000 wind power projects in 70 countries. To strengthen and lead our team, we are looking for a Head of Discipline for our Offshore Wind Primary Structures and Loads section. We are 150 committed colleagues working from Denmark, (Taiwan, Japan and Spain), while collaborating closely with 100 renewable energy colleagues in Germany, Norway, Korea, India, United Kingdom and North America. We work alongside our customers on some of Denmark’s most significant projects and we are thrilled to have contributed to offshore wind farm projects like Empire, New power for New York and Jeonnam, First commercial offshore wind farm in South Korea.
You will support a motivated and innovative section that delivers offshore wind energy solutions and offers full lifecycle services to our customers. In our offshore solutions, we design both floating as well as bottom fixed structures and cover all main design services. We embrace cultural diversity and highly value our social and friendly environment.
Your key responsibilities will be:
- Carrying out the department action plan and strategy.
- Day-to-day people management, recruitment and onboarding activities as needed.
- Set clear targets for performance and individual development of your employees.
- Support project teams to ideal execution of projects.
- Provide technical leadership on projects, support and feedback to employees.
- Primary responsible for providing input to resource planning.
- People management of your section, which consists of structural designers and loads specialists.
Your skills. Our team. Together we design the future
The first step to thrive in this role is that you are eager to collaborate with the people around you, whether they are colleagues, partners or customers. This is a technical role which involves developing ties with others. And you never get set in your ways, but keep exploring new insights and ways to improve.
On top of that, you will have:
- The ability to develop and enable your staff to deliver great results.
- Experience steering projects and providing technical guidance and sparring.
- Hold a degree in civil engineering.
- Have more than 10 years of relevant experience.
- Comprehensive experience within the offshore wind sector - particularly in foundation design.
- Professional proficiency in Danish is beneficial, but not a requirement.
- A well-established commercial network across the wind industry is beneficial, but not a requirement.
A place to work and so much more
At COWI, we work together with our customers to shape a sustainable and liveable world. We do it by applying our knowledge and curiosity – and sometimes even our courage – to create the solutions the world needs today to enable a better tomorrow. That is why we say no to fossil-based projects and aspire to have 100% of our revenue come from activities that move our customers towards sustainability.
We value differences and development and cultivate an environment of belonging and having fun. Because that is what brings out the best in you, at work and at home.
