Job Description

Imagine a future where you drive the commercial performance of a portfolio of offshore wind farms off the UK’s east coast, strengthening joint venture partnerships, and keeping safety at the centre of every decision.
Join us in this role where you’ll lead commercial management across a portfolio of operational assets, protecting and enhancing long-term value for our business and our partners. You’ll balance governance, risk, and performance, and you’ll work across functions to deliver improvements that support safe, reliable generation.

Welcome to Generation


You’ll be part of Commercial Management UKE where you, together with your colleagues, will manage Ørsted’s investments and joint venture partnerships across a portfolio of assets. You’ll work closely with asset Commercial Managers to deliver high-quality partner service, robust governance, and portfolio-wide enhancements, collaborating with teams across Ørsted including Finance, Legal, Operations, Engineering, and Regulatory Affairs.
As a team, we collaborate closely, share knowledge openly, and solve problems early to support strong performance and a high safety focus.

You’ll play an important role in:

  • promoting a strong safety & compliance focus across commercial decisions and joint venture governance.
  • representing Ørsted’s interests in a portfolio of UK assets, internally and externally on asset boards.
  • strengthening relationships with joint venture partners and key external stakeholders, including Offshore Transmission Owners and The Crown Estate.
  • leading portfolio-wide commercial topics, including financial & performance tracking, value enhancement, and dispute resolution.
  • identifying, valuing, and managing commercial risks and opportunities, and driving mitigation actions in order to maximise long-term value.
  • supporting the continuous development of the Commercial Management UKE team and driving a culture of accountability, excellence, and pride.

To succeed in the role, you:

  • bring deep commercial expertise in offshore wind, asset management, and joint venture structures.
  • communicate clearly, facilitate confidently, and build trust with senior internal and external stakeholders.
  • apply strong financial acumen, including business case thinking, budgeting, and economic modelling.
  • negotiate effectively, manage contractual obligations, and handle complex commercial issues with integrity.
  • work in a structured, proactive way, prioritising safety, collaboration, and results.


Maybe you’ve read the above and can see you have some transferable skills, even though they don’t quite match all the points. If you think you can bring something to the team, we still encourage you to apply.
Please note that you’re expected to do some travelling in relation to your work, as you’ll visit our Hub in Grimsby approximately once a month.

About Ørsted

Ørsted is the global leader in offshore wind power and is one of the largest renewable energy companies in the world.

Within a decade, we transformed from being one of Europe’s most fossil fuel-intensive utilities to being ranked as one of the most sustainable energy companies in the world. Today, we’re guided by a clear vision: to create a world that runs entirely on green energy.

We provide countries, companies, and communities with sustainable, reliable, and cost-competitive energy solutions, including offshore and onshore wind, solar, renewable hydrogen, and energy storage. We built the world’s first offshore wind farm back in 1991, and with over 2,000 turbines at sea, we’ve installed more offshore wind capacity than anyone else. In total, we own or operate over 17 GW of renewable energy capacity across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.

We know that to build renewable energy at pace and scale, we must build it right. We commit to developing and operating our assets in harmony with nature and in line with the need for science-based climate action. We prioritise integrity and safety in our operations, and we respect the human rights and diverse values of every employee and stakeholder.

As a global renewable energy leader, we leverage the curiosity and passion of our people to innovate and take new or existing technologies to scale, collaborating with governments, suppliers, and our industry partners to make green energy solutions a reality.
