TÜV SÜD is an international provider of advisory, and testing, inspection and certification (TIC) services. We deliver to customers from a range of industries including Renewable & Sustainable Energy, Oil & Gas, Water, Manufacturing, and Government. The modes of service delivery range from physical testing at one of our three UK testing labs, to on-site audits and inspections at customer sites, to desk-based services. Sustainability and decarbonisation are core growth engines for the TÜV SÜD group, plus we are committed as an organisation with acting more sustainably ourselves, as evidenced by our various commitments and awards. Our Green Energy and Sustainability (GES) business delivers advisory and TIC services through four business lines: hydrogen, sustainability, renewables and carbon capture and storage (CCUS). In the hydrogen area, we see continued growth in demand for our services and are currently looking for a new Hydrogen Consultant to join the team. The projects in this area are diverse in terms of scope and size and cover all aspects of the hydrogen sector from electrolysers/fuel cells, process safety and pressure equipment, components for entire pipelines and projects, to general advisory work on the hydrogen sector. Much of the work is desk-based consultancy, but the role will involve some travel to our test facilities in Scotland, customer sites and to events and trade shows. You’ll enjoy analysing data and complex scenarios to develop solutions for customers and excel at communicating these in both presentation and written report formats. We are looking for someone with existing knowledge and experience of working in the hydrogen sector, with electrolyser and fuel cell knowledge being a particular advantage. Experience of performing advisory and consultancy projects will be a distinct advantage. Due to an exciting new growth opportunity in the Aberdeen area, we are looking for someone within reasonable proximity of this location but highlight that the role itself is primarily home based, noting that the Green Energy and Sustainability team is spread across the UK, and so we embrace online collaborative ways of working. The candidate must have the ability to work and drive in the UK. Essential requirements for the candidate: A degree in engineering, physics, chemistry or similar subject. A demonstrable track record of working in the field of hydrogen. Be genuinely enthusiastic about and committed to the sustainability and drive to net-zero. Be happy working in a distributed, multi-disciplinary team environment. Be self-motivated and able to learn independently about new aspects of sustainability. Have an excellent command of written and spoken English, excellent communication skills, and attention to detail. Proficient in the use of the Microsoft office suite of applications. Advantageous requirements for the candidate: An MSc, PhD or higher degree in a relevant subject. Chartered Engineer/Chemist or working towards getting chartered. Knowledge of Electrical Control and Instrumentation is a plus. Experience of delivery consultancy projects. Understanding of regional safety and compliance legislation. Electrolyser and/or Fuel Cell technology and market knowledge. Practical site experience in the hydrogen, engineering and/or chemical fields. * Full UK driving license or license that allows driving on UK roads. Further Information: TÜV SÜD in the UK offers a competitive salary and benefits package that includes a minimum of 33 days holiday entitlement (for full-time employees, including public holidays), a contributory Group Personal Pension Plan and a non-contributory Group Life Assurance Scheme. We also offer various Salary Exchange/Sacrifice schemes (buying/selling holiday, cycle to work scheme, pensions), incentive schemes and comprehensive wellbeing support (Employee Assistance Programme, Dental Scheme and Occupational Health services). Dependent on their role, employees may also be eligible for hybrid/permanent home-working, a Company Car/Car Allowance and Private Medical Insurance
