Solas Energy Consulting is recruiting a Project Lead, Environmental Permitting and Renewable Energy Development to join our Canadian team immediately. This role blends project management, permitting strategy, regulatory coordination, and environmental development support. We are seeking someone who is passionate about getting the details right, loves learning, and is committed to sustainability.

This position is ideal for someone with 5 years or more of progressively responsible experience in environmental permitting, regulatory approvals, renewable energy development, or environmental consulting. Candidates should be structured, proactive, detail-oriented, client-focused, and comfortable working across technical, regulatory, commercial, and stakeholder-facing workstreams. The successful candidate takes pride in delivering meaningful advice to support client decision-making and is able to build and sustain long-term relationships with clients and subcontractors.

The successful candidate will lead day-to-day project delivery, translate project discussions into clear actions, manage multiple priorities, identify risks early, and maintain accountability across internal teams, clients, consultants, regulators, municipalities, Indigenous communities, landowners, and other stakeholders. Candidates with experience leading regulatory and permitting activities related to renewable energy project development are highly desirable, particularly experience in Alberta and Ontario. Experience supporting Indigenous engagement, consultation, and relationship-building activities is an asset. Strong project management skills are essential for this role. Experience with feasibility reports, due diligence, site selection and stakeholder engagement is also an asset. Excellent communication and writing skills are essential. PMP certification or eligibility is considered an asset. Occasional travel may be required.

Solas Energy is trusted to deliver timely advice so clients can make the best decisions possible for their projects. We have earned that trust by taking an innovative approach to our work, uncovering opportunities for strategic growth, and identifying solutions to complex project challenges through our collaborative, disciplined approach. As part of our growing Canadian team, you will have the opportunity to guide meaningful renewable energy projects that support Canada's transition to a low-carbon future. We offer a collaborative and flexible work environment where team members take on meaningful responsibilities and work directly with clients and industry leaders.
