Your key tasks will be to 

• give technical support to the offshore wind farms in the early development phases  
• manage the design, manufacturing and testing - quality assurance - of cable products and related accessories

Finally, it’s an advantage if you have experience with installation of high-voltage cables, experience with energy transmission projects in the USA, hold a project management certification (PMP or similar), are familiar with high-voltage cable standards - CIGRE, IEC, ICEA - and have experience working with FIDIC based contracts.
