Do you have a firm technical understanding of geotechnical engineering for offshore wind?
Do you want to grow your career within a family of 50,000 engineers and the wider offshore wind industry?

I am looking for a Geotechnical Senior Engineer - Offshore wind to be based across the UK and join the offshore wind engineering team. You will be looking to deliver projects using innovative business models and utilising existing, and developing new, digital solutions and design automation. 

Senior Geotechnical Engineer – Offshore Wind

About the company

This newly formed offshore wind engineering team) will bring experience and track record into our client’s already highly-skilled workforce and help deliver excellent value to our existing network of offshore wind developers, clients, partners and projects.
The business’s broader ambitions in the offshore renewable space extend from early-stage concept and feasibility through to delivering on full EPC and EPCI packages.

The role

This is a dynamic role that will require a firm technical understanding of geotechnical engineering for offshore wind.  The offshore wind engineering team will be looking to deliver projects using innovative business models and utilising existing, and developing new, digital solutions and design automation. 
As Senior Geotechnical Engineer, you will be directly working on offshore wind projects and provide geotechnical input in the design and consultancy work in the team.  You’ll also have the opportunity for personal development in a range of fields.
You’ll supervise, and be supported by, a strong group of engineers and the wider pool of company resources. 

Day-to-Day, you’ll be:

• Leading the work packages of geotechnical engineering on offshore wind project portfolio - from feasibility through to detailed design with diverse tasks such as geo survey specification, geotechnical interpretation and assistance in certification
• Providing technical input on project deliverables related to geotechnical subject for OWF
• Assisting/leading working groups for developing new geotechnical engineering delivery digital tools
• Publicising and promoting technical excellence in geotechnical engineering to the outside world
• Developing new technique / technology in geotechnical engineering related subjects.

You'll need:

• A degree and chartered status in civil/geotechnical engineering (or equivalent)
• Experience working on offshore wind development projects with input for geotechnical engineering in one or more of the foundation types such as Monopile, Jacket, Suction Base, or GBS
• Have experiences in at least one of the following areas

1) Geophysical including survey specification, sea mobility analysis, scour study, GIS modelling, geohazard analysis
2) Geotechnical planning including survey specification, geotechnical testing specification, 3D Ground modelling,
3) Geotechnical special studies such as monopile design using PISA method, suction caisson design, FE based pile analysis
4) Geotechnical / structural design and analysis for OWF such as drivability study, hammer specification, pile driving test, fatigue study, design for driven pile/mudmat, /gravity-based foundation design/jack up spudcan/anchor,

• Experiences of existing digital platforms for geotechnical design (GRLWEAP, Opile, Abaqus, ANSYS, Plaxis 2D-3D, Lpile etc…)
• 5 to 10 years of relevant experience

Summary:

This will be a fast-paced, but community-centred role. Your experience on offshore geotechnical engineering for offshore wind design will be utilised and enhanced in existing and future offshore wind projects within the business.
We’ll work together on our collective journey to deliver a truly unique and disruptive service offering to the industry.  You will have the opportunity to grow your career within a family of 50,000 engineers and the wider offshore wind industry.
This role can be remotely based, with a preference for proximity to London or Copenhagen.  Intermittent travel to the company offices in these locations will be expected.
