Renewable Project Director

Renewable Project Director: Utility-Scale Wind, Solar and Storage Construction Oman or Madrid | Permanent | Projects across Africa Africa is where much of the next wave of utility-scale renewables will be built. Finding sites and signing PPAs is no longer the hardest part. The real test is getting wind, solar and battery storage built safely, on budget and through to COD in markets where grids, logistics and contractor supply all need careful handling. Capax Mundi is recruiting for our client, a clean energy business with a growing portfolio of projects across Africa. Several of its projects are moving out of development and into construction, and it needs a Project Director to deliver them. The role You will take over projects from the development team and own them through contracting, construction and commissioning to COD and handover to operations. That means setting the contracting approach, running EPC and OEM tenders, managing contractors on site, and holding schedule, budget and safety against lender and environmental requirements. The projects combine wind, solar and battery storage, often on the same site, so you need to be comfortable directing all three. The role is based in Oman or Madrid and involves regular travel to project sites in Africa. What we are looking for • Utility-scale wind, solar or battery storage projects you have personally led through construction to COD, ideally across all three • Project director or construction director experience on utility-scale power projects • Delivery experience in Africa or comparable emerging markets • EPC contract management under FIDIC or similar, including variations, claims and LDs • HV substation and grid connection experience, and delivery to lender requirements • Owner-side or contractor-side backgrounds both welcome • Willingness to travel regularly to sites across Africa • Fluent English; French or Portuguese is an advantage Interested? Applications are handled confidentially by Capax Mundi. Contact Imee Carisma, [email protected]
