Simply Blue Group has expanded its team and opened a new office in Dublin, Ireland.
The new office in Dublin at 43 Fitzwilliam Square will cater for the recent growth in staffing levels which has seen the company recruiting professional expertise in engineering, project management, finance, and communications.
Headquartered in Cork, Ireland, Simply Blue Group has a pipeline of over 9GW of floating offshore wind projects, primarily in the waters off Ireland and the British Isles.
The recent team expansion highlights an increase in project activity as momentum builds in the Irish and global renewable energy sector.
Recent hires include Des Chavasse, who has been appointed as chief operations office, Adrian deAndres, who joins from Xodus and Sara MacKeown, a media professional with extensive experience in marine infrastructure projects having spent 15 years with the Port of Cork.
The appointments bring the Simply Blue team to almost 60 people.
Sam Roch Perks, co-founder and CEO, said: “The interest in the offshore renewables sector and the potential we can unlock in Ireland and elsewhere is truly exciting.
“We are humbled to be able to attract such passionate people as we grow internationally.”
