Business Development Engineer

About the Company
Our client is a growing Irish business that surveys the ocean and delivers the data behind offshore renewable energy projects. They work with developers around the world, supplying the information needed to plan and build offshore wind farms and other marine infrastructure. It’s a small, close-knit team of engineers, scientists and offshore specialists, with a strong appetite to grow internationally.
  
About the Opportunity
This is a role for someone who likes the mix of technical and commercial. You’ll be the link between clients and the engineering team: finding new opportunities, understanding what developers need to measure offshore, and turning that into winning proposals.

• Manage your pipeline and forecasts
• Represent the business at client meetings and industry events
