Description:
  • We are seeking an experienced SCADA Commissioning Lead to support the delivery of SCADA systems across offshore wind projects. The role is positioned as an independent, on-site consultant function with responsibility for ensuring that all SCADA commissioning activities are executed safely, in compliance with applicable standards, and in alignment with the overall project schedule.
  • The consultant will act as the central coordination point for SCADA commissioning, working across contractors, engineering teams, and commissioning management to ensure seamless execution. The scope includes Substation Control Systems, WTG SCADA and grid compliance, communication networks, metering systems, and associated auxiliary systems. The role requires both technical depth and the ability to operate effectively in a complex, multi-stakeholder EPC environment.
  • A key part of the assignment is to establish and maintain full control over commissioning activities. This includes driving the preparation and execution of FAT, SAT, and SIT, ensuring that all testing is properly conducted, documented, and approved. The consultant will be responsible for developing and maintaining the SCADA Commissioning Plan, including scope definition, quality assurance, and timelines, and for ensuring that all deliverables meet internal standards as well as regulatory and HSE requirements.
  • The consultant is expected to actively manage interfaces between SCADA contractors, electrical commissioning teams, and project stakeholders. This includes coordinating daily commissioning activities, monitoring progress against the plan, and proactively identifying risks that may impact schedule or quality. Where deviations occur, the consultant must take ownership of driving corrective actions and ensuring alignment across involved parties.
  • In addition, the role carries a clear mandate to ensure quality and compliance. The consultant will have the authority to challenge and reject non-compliant work or documentation and is expected to enforce project standards consistently across all SCADA-related activities. Regular reporting to the Commissioning Manager and SCADA Package Manager will be required, with a focus on transparency, risk visibility, and progress tracking.
  • Overall, the success of the assignment will be measured by the timely and high-quality commissioning of SCADA systems, the absence of critical HSE incidents within scope, and the delivery of complete, audit-ready documentation. The consultant is expected to contribute not only through execution, but by strengthening coordination, reducing risk, and ensuring that SCADA commissioning supports the broader project objectives.

The resource will work onshore and offshore.
