Operations Controller

Infinis is the UK’s leading renewable energy generator of low‑carbon power from captured methane. We capture methane gas from landfill sites and disused mines and convert it into electricity. Our expertise also extends to solar farms and battery energy storage (BESS) technology.

This work helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which supports the transition to net zero. We’re driving innovation and environmental responsibility and are committed to creating safe, sustainable energy solutions for a greener future.

If you’re passionate about engineering, sustainability, and power generation, this is your opportunity to thrive in a forward‑thinking company. With the demand for renewables set to rise, the energy sector offers an exciting opportunity to build a rewarding career.

This is a 4-on, 4-off schedule working 12-hour shifts: 2 x 6 am - 6 pm day shifts, followed by 2 x 6 pm - 6 am night shifts, then 4 days off.

You will remotely monitor and control our power generation assets, supporting our field-based operations team 24/7 by monitoring our SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system. You will report and record the performance of our power generation assets, monitor real‑time data and operational performance of our solar, captured landfill methane, and power response plants, and respond to safety warnings and alarms to support environmental compliance and the commercial success of regional sites.

You will be responsible for dispatching the field engineers to respond to power outages, site performance issues, or engine breakdowns, contributing to our overall success. Your role is crucial in maintaining health, safety, and environmental compliance.

To succeed in this role, you must be confident working with multiple software systems, accurately record data, find solutions and problem‑solve, and have clear communication skills while adhering to strict compliance rules and tight deadlines.
