Renewables Recruitment For Transmission Network

Connecting Clean Power to the Grid of the Future

At Mint Selection, we work with transmission network operators (TNOs) as they modernise the backbone of global electricity systems. As renewables become the dominant source of power generation, the role of transmission operators is evolving—requiring new investment, talent, and technologies to manage complexity, volatility, and decarbonisation targets.

We support TNOs across the UK, Europe, and beyond in hiring the professionals who plan, build, and optimise large-scale grid infrastructure. From integrating offshore wind to enabling interconnectors and battery systems, we help transmission businesses build future-ready teams that ensure reliability while accelerating the shift to net zero.

Whether developing new grid corridors or reinforcing ageing infrastructure, we find the people who can lead technical delivery and strategic change.

Roles in Transmission Network Operations

Professionals within transmission network operators are responsible for the safe, efficient, and futureproof delivery of electricity across national and regional grids. These roles combine engineering expertise with systems thinking, stakeholder engagement, and digital innovation.

Key roles include:

Grid Planning & Strategy Engineer – Designing future network pathways to support renewable integration and load growth.

Network Operations Manager – Leading real-time control room functions and maintaining grid stability during high-renewables penetration.

Connection & Access Specialist – Managing grid application processes for wind, solar, and battery developers.

Asset Manager (Transmission Infrastructure) – Overseeing the performance and investment planning for substations, cables, and overhead lines.

Digital Grid & Smart Infrastructure Lead – Implementing data, analytics, and automation to enhance grid resilience and responsiveness.

These professionals ensure the transmission system remains robust, adaptive, and aligned with long-term decarbonisation goals.
