Onshore Permitting Intern

Imagine a future where you shape the green energy transition while learning about state-specific siting and licensing regulations required for renewable energy projects

Join us in this role where you’ll work closely with our permitting, biological, development, compliance, and regulatory teams to create a digital resource to streamline early project permitting efforts.

Welcome to Permitting, Environmental & Marine Affairs
You’ll be part of the Onshore Permitting team where you, together with your colleagues, will help drive permitting success, identifying potential environmental and social risks, and finding inventive solutions to ensure our green energy projects are both commercially viable and have a net-positive impact on surrounding communities and biodiversity. You’ll work closely with permit managers and development team members to harvest previously completed permitting matrices for data, research information in new jurisdictions, and create a valuable digital solution. As a team, we take a science-based approach to ensuring that we avoid, minimize, and mitigate impacts, while collaborating with our colleagues in various departments.

You’ll play an important role in:

• creating an overall permitting matrix spreadsheet
• reviewing all project permitting regulations and requirements
• researching potential permitting regulations and requirements for key states
• creating a digitalization plan leveraging data visualization tools
• presenting findings to the PEMA management team.

To succeed in the role, you:

• communicate effectively with both your stakeholders and colleagues
• are organized and rigorous to ensure all work is done correctly
• plan and prioritize work to meet commitments aligned with organizational goals
• share information that people want to know and give appropriate context and details when speaking
• have experience creating digital tools in Power BI or Tableau
• have a high degree of proficiency with MS Office suite, especially MS Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

Maybe you’ve read the above and can see you have some transferable skills, even though they don’t quite match all the points. If you think you can bring something to the team, we still encourage you to apply.
