Cable Design Manager
We ARE Renewables is partnering with a leading EPCI contractor to recruit a Cable Design Manager for high-profile offshore wind farm projects. In this role, you will play a pivotal part in delivering technically robust and commercially optimized submarine cable solutions that support the energy transition.
This is a hands-on technical leadership role (not a people management position), ideal for an experienced engineer who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges across the full project lifecycle.
As Cable Design Manager, you will be responsible for steering the cable design scope from concept through execution, ensuring technical excellence, innovation, and alignment with client objectives.
Tasks & responsibilities:
- Lead the end-to-end cable design process, balancing technical, commercial, and lifecycle considerations to deliver optimal solutions.
- Collaborate closely with a multi-disciplinary team of engineers and specialists to solve complex challenges related to design, fabrication, installation, and operation.
- Act as a technical authority for offshore wind cable projects and tenders, providing expert engineering input throughout project execution.
- Support tendering and commercial activities, including technical reviews, clarifications, and participation in client meetings.
- Contribute to the selection and contracting of cable and cable protection system suppliers.
- Establish and maintain key design management tools, such as design schedules, risk and opportunity registers, decision logs, and design management plans.
- Drive and contribute to innovative R&D initiatives that enhance engineering solutions and project performance.
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical, Civil, Mechanical, or Marine Engineering.
- 5+ years of relevant experience, ideally with an EPCI contractor in the marine or offshore sector.
- Strong technical judgement, problem-solving ability, and attention to detail.
- A proactive team player with clear, effective communication skills.
- Fluent in English, both written and spoken.
Contract: 1 year contract directly at the customer with the intention to extend this to a permanent contract.
