Our mission is to continue to grow internationally and develop a strong global BESS portfolio.\n\nBatteries have a big job to do. They store renewable energy for when it's needed most, reducing grid intermittency and displacing carbon-intensive generation. Without storage, renewables can't scale - and we're here to change that. We have 300 MWh operational, 300 MWh under construction, and 4.5 GWh in development.\n\nWe're a team of experts in our fields - from engineers and construction managers to traders and data scientists - who roll up their sleeves and move fast. We're curious, we share openly, and we're genuinely motivated by the mission.\n\nOur Values\nWork for the team - We are friendly and approachable. We make time for each other, value diverse perspectives, and learn and grow together.\nDo it right - We prioritise doing things right, never cutting corners. Safety comes first, and we consider our impact on communities and the environment. We act with integrity always.\nMove fast - We’re doers. We take responsibility, deliver on promises, and get things done. FAST.\nKnow your stuff - We’re curious self-starters, always learning, adapting, and improving. No question is too small. We own our growth.\n\nRead more about our values at www.field.energy\n\nLove the sound of Field but not sure this role is right for you? Have a look at our careers page and register your CV.
