PNDC is one of the University of Strathclyde’s industry-facing centres established to accelerate the development of next generation power networks and whole energy systems, including the decarbonisation of heat, and decarbonised transport solutions. It provides a real-world environment for de-risking and demonstrating innovations in a range of areas including grid modernisation, digital substations, power electronics, powertrains and whole energy system integration to drive the Net Zero transition.

At PNDC, we bridge the gap between concept and deployment, working alongside network operators, technology providers, and policymakers to accelerate innovation. PNDC is seeking an ambitious and commercially-focused Senior Business Development Manager to play a leading role in developing and converting a pipeline of strategically important projects, partnerships and innovation programmes.

You will be instrumental in maximising utilisation of PNDC and ANZIC facilities while helping organisations accelerate innovation and reduce the risks associated with deploying new technologies.
