• Grid Connections – supporting grid applications, connection strategy and engagement with network operators
• Planning & Consenting – managing planning applications, environmental assessments and associated consents
• Land – supporting land agreements and maintaining relationships with landowners
• Technical Development – overseeing site investigations, surveys, design development and constructability
• Project Management – ownership of programmes, budgets, risks and project reporting
• Stakeholder Management – coordinating internal teams, consultants and external stakeholders
• Pre‑Construction – supporting projects through development and into construction
