Iberdrola jobs, judged for you, free

What they do

Iberdrola generates electricity and runs the networks that carry it. The group is based in Spain and trades under different names by country: Avangrid in the United States, Scottish Power in the United Kingdom, and Neoenergia in Brazil. Postings describe work on smart grids, renewable energy, and transmission and distribution networks.

What they value

• Reaching net zero, which Scottish Power postings tie to Scotland's 2044 goal.
• Keeping the lights on, phrased as systems that keep electricity flowing to millions of homes and businesses.
• Technical authority. Senior postings ask one person to own the standard for a project.
• Open pay. British postings print a salary range and the pension match.
• Working from a named office, because most postings list two or three sites to choose from.

Where they hire

Of 211 postings, the United States holds 127, the United Kingdom 41, Brazil 19, and Spain 19. France holds one. In the United States, Connecticut holds 40, with others in New York, Maine, and California. British postings sit in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Hamilton, Cheshire, and Conwy. Spanish postings include Bilbao, Madrid, and Valencia.

What they look for

British postings are the most detailed and state the money first. The senior systems engineer posting gives a range of £55,000 to £68,750 and asks you to act as the technical authority for one or more projects in the Advanced Energy Management Systems team, define technical standards, and validate what the delivery team builds. It names the projects: Wide Area Monitoring Systems, REPOWER, and orchestration systems, as the network moves toward being a distribution and transmission system operator. The lead quality assurance posting gives a range of £63,200 to £79,000 with a doubled pension match up to 10 per cent, and asks you to coordinate end-to-end testing for central systems across Scotland, North Wales, and North West England. Postings warn that the advert closes the day before any automated date shown, so the real closing date is in the text.
