A bit about Field To reach Net Zero, we need to solve big problems. At Field, we are showing that batteries are a totally viable part of our energy infrastructure - now, not in some distant future. With a strong financial foundation and an extensive portfolio of battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in Italy, the UK, Germany, and Spain, we are actively driving the energy transition.

Our most recent fundraising secured a £200 million investment from CVC DIF to accelerate our international growth and build a global BESS portfolio. Field has been operating in Italy since September 2022, with an office in Rome that has grown to a team of 12 over the past two years, and is set to double in the next couple of years. It's a group of specialists with diversified backgrounds – spanning project development, grid, origination, permitting, legal, strategy, finance, and electrical and civil engineering – bringing collective experience across 3+ GW of photovoltaic, 1.5+ GW of onshore wind, and 500+ MW of OCGT plants developed and constructed in Italy, alongside the origination of 3+ GW of BESS.

That mix of deep Italian renewables know‐how and fresh BESS expertise has translated into a strong, diversified pipeline from North to South of Italy, with 400 MW expected to reach Ready‐to‐Build status in Q2 2026 and more than 1 GW of additional BESS capacity already in planning. Field's Italian office in Rome is looking for a project manager – permitting to work side‐by‐side with the Lead of Project Development of Field Italia to manage the authorisation process for battery storage assets in Italy. The project manager is a crucial and varied role with the opportunity to have a massive impact.

We have built a robust team dynamic that bridges "hungry" junior talent and coaching senior professionals, so this is not an exhaustive list. There will always be room to learn. Be responsible for the preparation and update of the project plan, in particular staying on top of timelines and ensuring that delays are avoided while the quality of the project is kept to best in class.

The ultimate objective is to bring our battery storage projects to ready‐to‐build status as quickly as possible with high quality and keeping costs under control throughout the process. Manage and monitor the entire authorisation process for our battery storage projects and the related infrastructures for connection to the grid / RTN.



Review all the technical and administrative documents prepared by the consultants, necessary for obtaining authorisations for Field's BESS projects in Italy.

Manage the permitting process (Autorizzazione Unica ministeriale o regionale), setting up the documentation, managing communications with the ministry and regions / local authorities and preparing additional integrations in due course. Proven experience in securing secondary permits (building permits, environmental clearances, and grid connection agreements) following the primary authorisation such as AU and PAS. Deep understanding of technical‐administrative requirements to clear conditions precedent (prescrizioni) required by local authorities and environmental bodies.

Experience in performing site surveys, geotechnical assessments, and preliminary constraints analysis to ensure project buildability. Strong track record in managing relationships with local municipalities, landowners, and utility companies to secure Right of Ways (RoW) and land easements where required. Expertise in coordinating with multidisciplinary teams (legal, technical, and environmental) to ensure all pre‐construction compliance standards are met.

You're very organised – you'll be spinning a few plates at once, so you'll need proven methods for keeping on top of a varied workload. we are business partners and need to work closely with all teams.
