    Default job background
    Full time
    Description

    In the Technical Planning, Energy Analytics team, we help our customers to develop, approve and finance renewable energy projects, by using our technical skills to conduct high-quality analyses and provide robust answers to difficult questions. We're predominantly engineers with a knack for skillfully using and building tools and models to get the answers we need.

    We're busy, and so we're looking for someone to join us in a graduate to senior level role.

    Here are some of the things we do - it would be great if you already have experience with some of these tasks, but if not, we can teach you:

  • using tools to predict impacts such as shadow flicker, glint and glare, electromagnetic interference, noise, visual impact, and blade throw risks, to support planning applications for wind and solar projects
  • designing efficient wind and solar farms considering complex constraints
  • using sophisticated GIS-based analysis to identify promising sites for the development of utility-scale wind and solar projects
  • modelling and mapping to better understand the wind and solar resource across countries, regions or sites
  • providing assurance on project viability through pre-feasibility and red-flag assessments
  • providing trusted advice as an expert witness at planning hearings.

    • As well as the technical elements of our work, we are continually engaging with various customers and stakeholders, including developers, investors, financiers, planning authorities and others. Some of the other important non-technical parts of our work include:

  • engaging with customers to establish how our capabilities can help answer their questions
  • preparing proposals including scope, scheduling and budgeting
  • executing projects successfully through careful project management
  • preparing effective, high-quality technical reports and presentations
  • delivering insightful presentations to customers or other industry stakeholders
  • explaining and discussing important results and outcomes from our work with customers or other stakeholders.

    • Finally, and on a more personal note:

  • We are a welcoming and supportive team who value the benefits and strength that come from diversity.
  • We have strong local and global heritage and we regularly work with knowledgeable and experienced colleagues from around the world.
  • We offer competitive renumeration and leave allowances, including paid and unpaid parental leave, and flexible working arrangements.
  • We're focussed on staying at the forefront of the industry though regular investment in research and innovation, and are supportive of employee development.
  • We work hard to stay close and support each other, and look forward to extending the same support to you throughout whatever challenges the coming years present.

    • If this appeals to you, we'd love to talk about whether you could find a place in our team.

  • Wellbeing: DNV understands the importance of physical and mental wellbeing and aligned with our value of caring for our people, we have a 'Be Well' program in place.
  • Bonus opportunity: We believe it is important to reward our employees with an annual discretionary profit scheme or sales incentive scheme – depending on your role.
  • Insurances: DNV covers permanent employees for life and total permanent disability insurance as well as salary continuance insurance to safeguard you within our DNV Superannuation scheme.
  • Parental and long service leave: DNV has a generous parental leave and long service leave policy.
  • Hybrid work: We offer a hybrid work model to foster our culture while providing you with working flexibility.
  • Professional membership: We will support you with membership fees for your relevant governing body applicable to your position.
  • Social activities: To foster our culture, we enjoy regular social get togethers.

    • The above benefits may slightly vary depending on employment type.
