The project opened applications for the first 10 of at least 50 full-time operational roles, with a closing date in mid‑August and successful candidates expected to start in autumn. The positions will be based at a new £6.5 million operations facility under construction at the Port of Montrose, and with turbine supplier Vestas under its warranty agreement. Developer consortium ESB and Red Rock Renewables said contracts for initial external goods and services will be issued later this year.
