Job board: South African firms lead hiring

From the newsletter

Renewables Rising has compiled 192 open positions advertised over the past week in the energy sector. South African companies led by Engie, Mulilo, Scatec, and EDF Power are advertising for most of the positions. At the same time, financiers like the International Finance Corporation, Inspired Evolution and AFDB also have open positions in the country.

• We're observing a resurgence in solar-focused positions, particularly with companies involved in utility-scale projects. The renewable energy sector also shows continued interest in wind technology, with several related vacancies, and a single position in biogas energy.

• The list of vacancies indicates that companies are actively scaling their outreach via new marketing and communications roles. For example, SunCulture in Kenya is currently seeking a head of marketing and a senior marketing executive.
