Developing Your Skills

1. Professional/trade qualifications first e.g.

• 17th Edition

• Chartered engineer

• APM/Agile/PRINCE 2

• IOSH

2. Research, follow

• Structure of the industry

• Geographic locations

• Types of jobs

3. To get a job offshore – look onshore for experience………..consider contract work

4. Bottom of the list (these will not get you a job, skills, knowledge, attitude and experience are more important) – working at heights, sea survival, first aid, asset transfer etc

5. Transition training

Increase Your Wind vocabulary

Understand who is who – where they fit in the industry. Try to understand the roles within each. Build a list of employers.

Connect Your Skills & Attributes:

Consider the skills & attributes you have and where they might fit. Remember it’s not just your technical skills that will be valuable.

Enhance Your Skills:

Don’t just map out the employers and vacancies. Remember to also research ways you can improve or gain the skills you need.

Look Beyond Advertised Opportunities:

Not all vacancies are advertised. Do your best to ensure your availability and enthusiasm is visible across the sector.

I grew up on the Isle of Wight where

opportunities were quite limited during

the 80’s. I was not terribly academic and

I left school at 15 with a handful of low

level qualifications.

I served in the RAF for 9 years, mostly

based on Hercules transport aircraft

serving in Central America, Gulf War,

Angola, Former Yugoslavia, Bosnia,

Somalia, Iraq and many others. It was a

busy time.

Me on the right, a long long time ago!

Page 39: An Introduction to the Energy Industry for the Military ... · to invest at least £48 Billion by 2030 •Employ> 27,000 people •One of lowest cost forms of electricity. Has dropped

39

When I left the RAF I had no help, grants or support from anyone. I used to spend my

evenings writing letters to companies from addresses in the yellow pages.

My brother had worked in the local shipyard and I managed to get an interview driving

a forklift before later moving onto the shop floor and then into a role in the office.

In 2002, I went to work for NEG Micon (forerunner to MHI Vestas) who had just

opened a production facility on the Isle of Wight. I managed to get a job in buying.

I went on to work for Gurit (composites), before working in 3 different companies

developing wind farms.

My advice to anyone looking to join the industry is to listen to and trust those around

you regardless of age, gender and seniority. We all have an important contribution to

make. We need to keep a positive working environment where we are all equal.

I look after UK Supply Chain management,

local content engagement for Europe and

the Procurement of onshore civil works.

The people I work with are the main reason

for doing this role. We are very lucky to

have a great culture. It feels like we are

doing something positive and making

decisions in the correct way.

I learned to drink from a cup & saucer!

Page 41: An Introduction to the Energy Industry for the Military ... · to invest at least £48 Billion by 2030 •Employ> 27,000 people •One of lowest cost forms of electricity. Has dropped

41

My advice to anyone looking to join the

industry is be patient, look for different

routes in, do the roles that others won’t.

You now know where we spend the

money, who we spend it with & where to

look for opportunities.

I make use of many skills from being in

the forces.

Dealing with pressure is a key ability, as

well as being able to communicate and

work in a team with flexible working

locations.

A sense of humour is key!
