Technical Advisory is newly established department within Energy Systems, UK & Ireland, creating a powerhouse of technical expertise which combines existing strengths with the ambition of growing capabilities and raising the bar on service quality for our customers across the whole Energy Systems space.

The department combines our services across Projects, Engineering, and Integrity with a clear ambition to strengthen delivery and focus our technical excellence to increase customer impact.

The Project Advisory Section plays a key role in supporting customers across the full project lifecycle, delivering CAPEX services such as Owners Engineering, as well as Operational Services looking at life management, repowering options, decommissioning studies and inspections.

The ambition of the Project Advisory Section is to create a dynamic environment to expand and evolve these services across assets and technologies in line with market trends and emerging opportunities. This will require strong commercial mindset and alignment across teams and close collaboration with other departments to enhance the service offering and increase market share by building on broader regional capabilities.

The teams within Projects Advisory will focus on different phases of the project lifecycle however there is a strong expectation that teams will be working together and share resources within and beyond the section as needed to ensure the section and department performance. The teams will be multi technology comprising people coming from different legacy Renewables teams and they are expected to deliver across technologies.
