Real jobs. Clear pathways. A future worth working for. The offshore wind industry is one of the fastest-growing sectors in the UK — and it needs people like you.
Green energy comes from natural sources that won't run out — like wind, sun, and water. Unlike fossil fuels, it doesn't produce harmful emissions, which means it's better for the planet and for the people living on it.
Offshore wind is one of the UK's biggest green energy success stories. The UK already has more offshore wind capacity than any other country in the world — and we're just getting started.
You'll make a real difference — clean energy is one of the most important challenges of our generation
Long-term job security — the industry needs 600,000 trained technicians globally by 2027
Competitive pay — entry-level roles start at £25,000–£35,000, rising to £60,000–£90,000+
Practical, varied work — no two days are the same, and most roles involve real hands-on activity
Travel and adventure — work locations range from the North Sea to international wind farms
Be part of the solution — the UK aims for 50GW of offshore wind capacity by 2030
Not sure what job you want? Here are some real roles that people in offshore wind actually do.
Not all roles involve climbing turbines — there are office, technical, logistics and support roles too.
There are lots of ways into offshore wind — and a degree is just one of them.

Yes — and here's why safety is taken so seriously.
Safety is the number one priority across every wind farm in the world
All offshore workers must complete GWO certified training before going near a turbine
Strict rules, procedures, and PPE are standard — hard hats and harnesses always provided
You work as part of a team, never alone offshore
GWO training is renewed every 2 years, keeping skills current
Industry-standard emergency procedures and drills are routine
We're a specialist offshore wind training provider based in the North East of England — and we were built by people who've worked in the industry.
We train the next generation of offshore wind professionals: from complete beginners taking their first GWO course, to experienced technicians adding specialist qualifications.
After you complete a course with us, a member of our team will interview you and offer guidance on your next steps. We understand what employers are looking for — because we know them personally.
Whether you're 15 and curious, or 25 and ready for a career change — we'd love to hear from you.
