Imagine a future where you lead safe, reliable, and data-led surveillance of our offshore wind assets

Join us in this role where you’ll lead the day-to-day organisation of our Asset Surveillance Room, helping ensure continuous operational coverage and effective remote response across our wind farms. You’ll guide shift teams, improve processes, support troubleshooting, and help strengthen the systems and ways of working that keep our assets performing safely and reliably.

 

Welcome to Asset Surveillance

You’ll be part of Asset Surveillance & Response where you together with your colleagues will monitor, control, and support offshore wind assets through 24/7/365 operations. The team provides WTG control and monitoring, alarm incident handling, remote resets, condition monitoring, IT infrastructure monitoring, reporting, and site support across operational teams and markets.

 

As a team, we care about safety, reliability, and sharing knowledge. We succeed as one by working closely across shifts, sites, and specialist teams to solve issues and improve how we operate.

 

You’ll play an important role in:

  • managing the day-to-day organisation of the Asset Surveillance Room shift rota and team, ensuring appropriate staffing for continuous operational coverage
  • providing expert guidance to shift teams on WTG operations, monitoring, diagnostics, and remote response processes
  • conducting alarm and data monitoring, trend analysis, and fault-finding in line with approved Remote Operating Procedures
  • leading improvements to ASR operating software, business processes, Standard Operating Procedures, and Remote Operating Procedures
  • collaborating with fleet management, operational sites, HSE, IT, asset management, compliance, and external providers to help resolve operational issues
  • supporting reporting, performance analysis, LEAN ways of working, and initiatives that improve wind farm availability, performance, and operational resilience.

 

To succeed in the role, you:

  • bring strong WTG and/or BOP domain knowledge, including confidence working with operational systems, data, and technical information
  • have experience with SCADA operation, diagnostics, remote troubleshooting, or equivalent operational control experience
  • communicate clearly in English and can provide timely, professional responses to customers, stakeholders, and operational teams
  • take ownership of issues, make effective handovers when needed, and use the wider Ørsted organisation to solve problems
  • are proactive in improving processes, applying LEAN thinking, and supporting continuous improvement across the team
  • enjoy developing others, sharing knowledge, working independently, and adapting your working pattern when operational needs require it.
