Job Description

Project Finance Manager – Lender Management (all genders)

Join us in shaping the future of renewable energy!

Skyborn’s flagship project, the Gennaker offshore wind farm, has just received its construction and operations permit – a major milestone for what will become one of the largest offshore wind projects in the German Baltic Sea. With an installed capacity of 976.5 MW, Gennaker is set to deliver around 4 TWh of green electricity annually, enough to power approximately one million households. Scheduled for commissioning in 2028, this project is not only a cornerstone of Germany’s energy transition but also a benchmark for sustainable innovation. Be part of a team that turns ambition into reality and helps secure a cleaner, more resilient energy future.

Joining Skyborn means being a part of a global offshore wind leading developer with more than two decades of experience and a proven track record across the full project lifecycle — from early development to construction and long-term operations. You’ll work with 300+ committed, purpose-driven colleagues, take responsibility early, and grow in a collaborative, international environment where safety, integrity, and teamwork guide how we deliver results.

If you want your skills to make a tangible difference and to help build what tomorrow will run on, Gennaker offers a meaningful next step.
