Our mission is to accelerate the reduction in Europe’s reliance on fossil fuels, and we have already established a portfolio of onshore wind and solar projects. At the end of 2023 we finished construction of our first solar park and windfarm, which are now exporting power.

To have the biggest impact, we target markets that are underserved by capital and renewable expertise, by a team with a long history in successful development and construction of major renewable projects.

We currently work in Croatia, Italy, Poland, and Romania. We have already established a portfolio of onshore wind, solar and BESS projects. In Italy, we have acquired 7 projects at different stages of development.

Now we are looking for the Permitting Development Manager to lead our projects.

The Permitting Development Manager will lead and coordinate a team of project permitting specialists and will play a key role in supporting the overall project strategy. This includes involvement from the early screening and drop-down phase to RTB (Ready-to-Build), in collaboration with the Origination Manager and Design Manager, and from RTB to COD (Commercial Operation Date), in coordination with the Construction Manager. The role reports directly to the Head of Origination and Development, Italy.

The Permitting Development Manager oversees the environmental permitting process for projects involving multiple technologies—PV, Wind, BESS, Agro-PV, and other technologies within the company portfolio. Responsibilities include managing landscape and cultural heritage permit applications, steering complex projects, and ensuring the achievement of development and permitting milestones from the drop-down phase to construction readiness.

Additionally, the role supports and advises the Origination Manager in defining search areas and selection criteria, as well as identifying the most suitable technology applications for specific regions.

Key responsibilities also include developing scopes of work and proposals, assisting with the preparation and submission of permit applications, attending client and authority meetings (including conferences of services), coordinating with project design teams, and mentoring junior staff.
