About Us

ORE Catapult is the UK's leading innovation centre for offshore renewable energy, accelerating the technologies needed to deliver a net zero future.

Working with industry, academia and government, we help develop, test and commercialise innovative technologies that support the growth of offshore wind, wave and tidal energy, whilst strengthening the UK supply chain and driving economic growth.

The Role

We're looking for a Project Engineer to join our Research \& Engineering team.

This is an exciting opportunity for an engineer with a passion for innovation and technology development to support the delivery of cutting\-edge renewable energy projects across the offshore renewables sector.

As a Project Engineer, you'll lead the scoping, development and delivery of projects with ORE Catapult and external partners. You'll provide technical expertise across a range of engineering activities including mechanical design, analysis and simulation, technology development, and supply chain innovation support.

Working within our Engineering Projects team, you'll play a key role in delivering commercial, collaborative and research projects that help address some of the sector's most pressing engineering challenges. You'll work closely with industry partners, technology developers and stakeholders to develop innovative solutions that support the deployment and growth of offshore renewable energy technologies.

What You'll Be Doing

• Leading the delivery of commercial and collaborative projects within ORE Catapult's Offshore Renewables portfolio.


• Providing technical leadership and subject matter expertise across engineering projects.


• Managing work delivered by engineers and external consultants to meet project objectives and quality standards.


• Supporting the development, scoping and initiation of new projects and opportunities.


• Working closely with internal teams, technology developers and supply chain partners to deliver project outcomes.


• Leading and contributing to industry workshops and stakeholder engagement activities.


• Producing high\-quality technical reports, analysis and project documentation.

You'll be an engineer who enjoys solving complex technical challenges and working in an innovation\-focused environment. You'll be comfortable managing multiple projects and collaborating with a wide range of stakeholders to deliver impactful engineering solutions.

You'll ideally have:

• A degree in a relevant engineering or scientific discipline such as Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Marine Engineering, Oil \& Gas Engineering or Naval Architecture.


• Around five years' relevant industry experience or demonstrable equivalent experience.


• Experience delivering technical engineering projects and activities successfully.


• Experience managing stakeholder relationships and engaging with industry partners.


• Knowledge of floating wind and the wider offshore wind industry.


• Experience using CAD, mechanical analysis and numerical modelling software.


• Strong problem\-solving, communication and organisational skills.


• The ability to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously.


• A proactive, innovative and collaborative approach to engineering challenges.

• Knowledge of offshore renewable energy supply chains.


• Offshore field experience within offshore renewables or a related industry.

This role offers the opportunity to work at the forefront of offshore renewable energy innovation, helping to develop technologies that support the UK's transition to net zero.

You'll work alongside leading engineers, researchers and industry partners on projects that make a tangible impact across the offshore renewable energy sector. From technology development and engineering analysis to supply chain innovation and industry collaboration, you'll help shape the future of renewable energy in the UK and beyond
