Renewable Energy Project Developer

Want to build a green future for the generation to come?

Your job: Power the future with a minimal impact on our environment!

• Do you love creating something tangible as a result of your hard work – but you are better with a mouse and laptop than with a set of carpenter’s tools?
• Do you like office work – but also enjoy putting on your outdoor gear once in a while to get things done on your To-Do-List?
• Do you want a well-paid job with development opportunities and a bright future ahead – but not at all costs to communities and the environment?

Then join us in developing and help building renewable energy projects. You will be involved in many aspects of the development of wind and solar energy projects. You will work with an inspiring team composed of experts in renewable energy policy and incentives, real estate, GIS, legal, design, permitting, site preparation, finance and construction. We acknowledge that the most valuable resource for our business is the confidence of the communities that are willing to host our projects in our ability to find the equilibrium between their best interests, the financial viability of our undertakings and the needs of our environment.

The only real requirement to get this job: Passion!

Please don’t bore us with your application! Rather, try the following:

• Tell us about achievements in your professional and personal life that make you proud;
• Make our team laugh or cry when reviewing your application; and most importantly
• Show us your passion for renewable energy!
