Job description

We are seeking a Project Manager with proven experience in managing the construction and delivery of utility-scale renewable energy projects, with a portfolio covering solar PV, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and wind. The primary focus of the role is to lead project execution from Notice to Proceed (NTP) through construction, commissioning, Commercial Operation Date (COD), and handover to operations, taking ownership of contractor performance, schedule, budget, quality, and Health, Safety & Environmental (HSE) requirements. Proven EPC contract management and hands-on construction-phase experience are required. Knowledge of pre-construction and secondary permitting is desirable to facilitate effective project handovers and continuity into execution.

The position sits within the Italian Construction team and is based in Milan, with attendance at the Milan office three days per week in accordance with company policy. The successful candidate must be available to travel to project sites throughout Italy as required by project needs.

  • Knowledge of pre-construction and secondary permitting is desirable, including construction-readiness requirements, permit conditions, ancillary approvals, and coordination with specialist advisers and authorities
  • Proven experience in EPC contract management, including scope and interface allocation, contractual obligations, milestones, variations, claims, and contractor negotiations; understanding of project finance requirements and construction practices
  • Hands-on construction-phase experience is essential, including site and contractor coordination, progress monitoring, issue resolution, commissioning, and handover
  • Ability to review technical studies, design packages, project authorisations, and grid-connection requirements, translating constraints into actionable plans, budgets, and readiness assessments
  • Experience managing international projects is highly desirable
  • Strong understanding of planning tools (Primavera P6, MS Project or similar)
  • Excellent knowledge of risk management and project controls
  • Strong commercial and contractual skills
  • Fluency in English (additional languages are a plus)
  • Project Management certification (e.g., PMP, PRINCE2) is an advantage
  • Availability to travel to project sites throughout Italy and to attend the Milan office three days per week, in accordance with company policy

  • Lead the construction and delivery of renewable energy projects across the solar PV, BESS, and wind portfolio, from NTP through construction, commissioning, COD, and handover to operations
  • Manage EPC contractor performance and coordinate engineering, procurement, site execution, and grid-connection interfaces during construction, resolving technical issues and scope gaps to maintain progress
  • Monitor compliance with permit conditions during construction and coordinate with permitting specialists on secondary approvals and authority interfaces affecting execution, maintaining clear responsibilities and deadlines
  • Review and take ownership of the construction handover package, including authorisations, land rights and site access, grid-connection obligations, surveys, and technical studies; agree actions with development and pre-construction teams to close outstanding execution risks
  • Oversee project execution against schedule, budget, quality, and HSE requirements, verifying mobilisation readiness with the pre-construction team and implementing corrective actions throughout construction
  • Develop, maintain, and monitor integrated construction schedules, budgets, cost forecasts, and risk registers, tracking contractor progress, procurement and delivery milestones, grid connection, and commissioning; agree and monitor recovery plans where required
  • Act as the primary project contact for contractors, suppliers, technical advisers, public authorities, grid operators, lenders, and internal teams
  • Manage EPC contracts and key supply and service interfaces, monitoring scope, obligations, milestones, payment conditions, guarantees, notices, variations, and claims in coordination with legal and procurement teams
  • Lead regular project reporting, including preparation of materials for Steering Committees and senior management
  • Ensure full implementation of Health, Safety & Environmental (HSE) standards across all project activities
  • Identify and mitigate technical, permitting, contractual, and execution risks; escalate critical issues with clear recommendations and recovery actions
  • Coordinate multidisciplinary teams across development, engineering, permitting, procurement, legal, finance, construction, and operations, ensuring clear ownership and continuity at each project handover
  • Coordinate tender preparation, technical and commercial bid evaluation, contractor selection, and EPC contract negotiation, ensuring that scope boundaries, exclusions, interfaces, and permitting obligations are clearly allocated
