    • development projects in the UK and Ireland;
    • acquisition of suitable assets / development opportunities on the secondary market; and
    • the operation and optimisation of our existing fleet of operational gas and renewable assets.
    Your responsibilities will include:
    • Providing comprehensive legal advice on various issues including corporate / finance (project finance, joint ventures, M&A), commercial (supply chain contracts, procurement and project development) within the energy and infrastructure sectors.
    • This will include the drafting, reviewing and negotiating commercial agreements and contracts.
