Empowering the Clean Energy Grid of Tomorrow

At Mint Selection, we partner with forward-thinking renewable energy utilities, helping them build the talent they need to modernise operations, expand clean generation, and lead in a decentralised, digital grid environment. As utilities pivot towards net-zero goals, their success depends on the ability to integrate renewable energy at scale—while balancing affordability, reliability, and sustainability.

​

From transmission operators to vertically integrated utilities and distribution companies, we support organisations reshaping their portfolios through solar, wind, battery storage, hydrogen, and smart grid solutions. Whether expanding asset bases or enhancing grid flexibility, we recruit the professionals who can help utilities thrive in the energy transition.

​

Roles in Renewable Energy Utilities

Professionals in renewable energy utilities play a pivotal role in planning, delivering, and optimising low-carbon energy systems. These roles span generation, grid operations, strategy, and innovation—blending technical, regulatory, and commercial expertise.

​

We recruit for positions including:

​

Renewable Energy Development Manager – Leading origination, permitting, and delivery of utility-owned clean energy projects.

​

Grid Strategy & Innovation Lead – Designing future-ready grid systems that integrate DERs, EVs, and storage assets.

​

Energy Trading & Optimisation Analyst – Managing flexible generation and renewables within wholesale and balancing markets.

​

Regulatory Affairs Manager (Clean Energy Focus) – Navigating policy change, compliance, and stakeholder engagement across regulated markets.

​

Project Engineer / Asset Manager (Renewables) – Overseeing construction and long-term performance of wind, solar, and hybrid portfolios.

​

These professionals support utilities in delivering secure, cost-effective energy systems while transitioning to a cleaner generation mix.

Why Renewable Energy Utilities Matter

As decarbonisation accelerates, renewable energy utilities are central to enabling large-scale, systemic change. Their infrastructure, customer reach, and regulatory frameworks position them to lead on grid modernisation, storage deployment, and clean energy investment.

Utilities contribute by:
