The new jobs are [80 new SSE roles in Glasgow and 50 new Siemens Energy roles at Montrose Port](https://news.stv.tv/scotland/offshore-wind-farm-will-support-130-new-scottish-jobs-energy-giant-announces). The bigger number in the announcement, [2,677 skilled manufacturing, engineering, project delivery and servicing roles](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/), counts roles expected to be supported, most of them existing and project-based jobs in England. None of it is final yet, because [the appointment remains subject to a final investment decision on the project by SSE and a final contract award](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/). For [Metaintro](https://www.metaintro.com) readers in engineering, project delivery or offshore servicing, this guide sorts the new jobs from the supported ones, shows what a [live SSE offshore role at Montrose](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom) pays, and explains how to get in. ## What Did SSE Announce With Siemens Energy on Berwick Bank B? Berwick Bank B is a [1.4GW offshore wind farm due to be constructed in the outer Firth of Forth around 38km off the Scottish coast](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). SSE has named Siemens Energy as [preferred supplier of offshore wind turbines and substations](https://dailybusinessgroup.co.uk/2026/11/siemens-energy-named-preferred-bidder-for-berwick-b/) for the project. Preferred supplier is not a signed contract, because [a final contract award is still to come](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/), so the jobs below are what SSE expects if the project goes ahead. The project sits inside a much bigger plan. Berwick Bank B [forms part of the wider 4.3GW Berwick Bank Offshore Wind Farm project](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/), which SSE says [could become the world’s largest offshore wind farm](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/) if built to its full capacity. At full size, Berwick Bank could be [capable of meeting more than 6% of current UK electricity demand](https://news.stv.tv/scotland/offshore-wind-farm-will-support-130-new-scottish-jobs-energy-giant-announces). Energy Minister Stephen Gethins of [the Scottish Government](https://www.gov.scot/news/major-offshore-wind-expansion-at-port-of-montrose/) was due to [visit SSE’s Waterloo Street office in Glasgow city centre on 11 November to unveil the new roles](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/) and meet the Berwick Bank team. ## How Many of the Jobs Are Actually New? Four different job figures appear in this announcement, and only one of them is made up entirely of new jobs. The figures overlap, so do not add them together. - **130 new jobs.** These are [the 130 new roles based in Glasgow and Montrose](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/) named in the Scottish package. - **455 Scottish roles supported.** This is the total of [skilled engineering, project delivery and servicing roles expected to be supported by Siemens Energy and SSE across Scotland](https://news.stv.tv/scotland/offshore-wind-farm-will-support-130-new-scottish-jobs-energy-giant-announces), and it includes the 130 new jobs. - **2,677 UK roles supported.** This is the UK-wide figure, of which [more than 2,200 are existing and project-based jobs in the north of England](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). - **More than 3,000 jobs so far.** This is the running total of [UK jobs linked to Berwick Bank B so far, including almost 1,000 in Scotland](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/), which also counts earlier announcements. So only the first figure is made up entirely of new jobs. SSE has not given a hiring date for the new roles. > I warmly welcome the news that SSE’s Berwick Bank B project will now support almost 1,000 jobs in Scotland, including the 130 new roles based in Glasgow and Montrose that have been announced today, Scottish Energy Minister Stephen Gethins said, according to [the SSE Renewables announcement](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/). ## Who Is Hiring in Glasgow, SSE or Siemens Energy? The new Glasgow jobs in this package belong to SSE, and [Siemens Energy's Glasgow project delivery roles are not counted among them](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/). The package includes [200 engineering and project delivery roles with SSE at its Waterloo Street office in central Glasgow, including 80 new jobs being created as the company grows its existing Berwick Bank B team](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/). That makes these SSE staff roles on the developer side, in [engineering and project delivery](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). Siemens Energy is [strengthening its presence in Scotland with a new Glasgow office](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). Of its Scottish roles, 50 are [roles to support project delivery from the company’s new Glasgow office](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/). That new office has a wider remit than one wind farm. It is [expected to employ up to 150 people and support the company’s wider renewable energy, grid infrastructure and service activities across Scotland](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/), and Siemens Energy is [also investing in apprenticeships and training to help develop the skilled workforce](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/) needed for the sector. ## What Will the New Montrose Port Jobs Involve? The 50 new Siemens Energy jobs at Montrose are servicing roles, created [to service and maintain the offshore wind farm during its first five years of operation](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/). [Up to 155 roles supporting turbine pre-assembly would also be based at a port facility in northern Scotland](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/), still to be named. Together with Glasgow and Montrose, Siemens Energy is [expected to support 255 roles across Scotland](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/) on the project. Montrose was already picked for SSE's own operations jobs. In September, SSE chose Montrose Port as [the preferred operations and maintenance (O&M) base for its 1.4 GW Berwick Bank B offshore wind farm, with the project expected to create 100 full-time jobs](https://www.offshorewind.biz/2026/09/28/sse-picks-montrose-port-as-oandm-base-for-14-gw-offshore-wind-farm). Those roles [will include technicians and engineers responsible for the day-to-day operation of Berwick Bank B throughout its expected operational life of more than 35 years](https://www.offshorewind.biz/2026/09/28/sse-picks-montrose-port-as-oandm-base-for-14-gw-offshore-wind-farm), and the base will be at [Montrose Port’s South Harbour](https://www.offshorewind.biz/2026/09/28/sse-picks-montrose-port-as-oandm-base-for-14-gw-offshore-wind-farm). Other employers are expanding there too. [Subsea Micropiles announced a new manufacturing facility at the Port of Montrose](https://www.gov.scot/news/major-offshore-wind-expansion-at-port-of-montrose/), where it already has a base, and the facility is [expected to create around 80 new jobs](https://www.gov.scot/news/major-offshore-wind-expansion-at-port-of-montrose/), making components that secure floating offshore wind turbines in deep water. Full-time operational roles linked to Berwick Bank at the port [could eventually reach almost 300](https://www.offshorewind.biz/2026/09/28/sse-picks-montrose-port-as-oandm-base-for-14-gw-offshore-wind-farm) if the A and C phases secure support through future CfD auctions and reach final investment decisions. ## Which Jobs in Hull, Manchester and Newcastle Are Linked to the Project? Most of the supported roles are in England. As preferred supplier, Siemens Energy [would draw on capabilities across its established UK operations, supporting 2,222 existing and project-based jobs in the north of England](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). The work splits by city. [The roles would span wind turbine blade manufacturing in Hull, engineering and project delivery in Manchester, and project delivery and assembly activities in Newcastle](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). The Newcastle work covers [project delivery and assembly supporting the offshore substations](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). For workers in those cities, the phrase existing and project-based matters. Those jobs [are expected to be supported across Siemens Energy’s established wind and grid technology operations](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). ## When Could Construction Start, and What Has to Happen First? The timeline depends on two steps, [a final investment decision on the project by SSE and a final contract award](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). SSE is progressing Berwick Bank B towards [a Final Investment Decision, expected late next year](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). If that decision goes ahead, the build follows in stages. [Preparatory offshore construction works on Berwick Bank B could begin in 2028, with turbine and offshore substation installation beginning in 2030 and completing in 2032](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/). The project already has a price for its power. In January 2026, Berwick Bank Phase B won a [Contracts for Difference strike price of £89.49/MWh in 2024 prices](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/contracts-for-difference-cfd-allocation-round-7-results/contracts-for-difference-allocation-round-7-results-accessible-webpage) (about $119.69 per MWh), with a [delivery year of 2030/31](https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/contracts-for-difference-cfd-allocation-round-7-results/contracts-for-difference-allocation-round-7-results-accessible-webpage) for its first phase. > While the project remains subject to final approvals and contract award, we are proud to be working alongside SSE as it progresses this nationally significant development, Darren Davidson, managing director of Siemens Energy UK &I, said, according to [the STV News report](https://news.stv.tv/scotland/offshore-wind-farm-will-support-130-new-scottish-jobs-energy-giant-announces). ## What Does an SSE Offshore Wind Job at Montrose Pay Right Now? SSE has a [live Montrose vacancy on its careers site](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom) for its existing Seagreen wind farm, which already [uses Montrose as the O&M base for the 1.1 GW Seagreen offshore wind farm](https://www.offshorewind.biz/2026/09/28/sse-picks-montrose-port-as-oandm-base-for-14-gw-offshore-wind-farm). It is an SSE role, not one of the new Siemens Energy jobs, but it shows what this SSE supervisor role at Montrose pays. The [Offshore Shift Supervisor role at Seagreen Offshore Wind Farm](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom) pays [£36,200 to £54,400 depending on experience, plus an offshore allowance and a performance-related bonus](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom) (about $48,400 to $72,800). It is [an offshore role based on a Service Operation Vessel (SOV), operating on a rotational shift pattern](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom), with mobilisation from Montrose, and it [closes on Nov 18 2026 at 23:55 GMT](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom). The role requires [a time-served apprenticeship or equivalent technical qualification in Electrical, Mechanical, C&I or a related engineering discipline](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom). It also wants [experience in a supervisory or leadership role, including responsibility for people and the management of contractors or sub-contractors](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom), plus experience of working within Operational Safety Rules, Safe Systems of Work or a similar environment, ideally with [AP/AT authorisation or the ability and willingness to work towards it](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom), and [a strong understanding of offshore working, operational planning and SHE risks, with a practical, safety-first approach](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom). [Knowledge of operational offshore wind assets and associated infrastructure, including BOP, WTG and OFTO, would be beneficial, alongside the ability to work collaboratively as part of a wider operational team](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom). The role comes with [34+ days holiday with the option to buy more](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom) and [a pension with contributions starting at 6%](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom), which SSE calls market leading. SSE Renewables describes itself as [a global team of 1,800 energy experts](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom), and [this role only takes applications made online through its Apply Now box](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom). ## How Do You Get Into SSE Without Offshore Experience? SSE's apprentice and trainee [programmes take around two to four years to complete](https://careers.sse.com/apprenticeships-and-trainees), and apprentices [earn a salary while working towards an accredited qualification](https://careers.sse.com/apprenticeships-and-trainees). For many SSE schemes, [there are no minimum grades required](https://careers.sse.com/apprenticeships-and-trainees), and the company hires on [strengths, not grades](https://careers.sse.com/apprenticeships-and-trainees). Selection runs in four stages, an [online application, online test, video interview and final assessment](https://careers.sse.com/apprenticeships-and-trainees). The test is [behaviour-based](https://careers.sse.com/apprenticeships-and-trainees) with an ability component, and the final assessment [is likely to include a group exercise, a presentation, and an interview](https://careers.sse.com/apprenticeships-and-trainees). Applicants who need adjustments for the tests can [email apprenticesandtrainees@sse.com before taking them](https://careers.sse.com/apprenticeships-and-trainees). ## How Does This Fit With Earlier Berwick Bank B Job Announcements? This package builds on earlier Berwick Bank B jobs news. In October, SSE named [Aberdeen-based Seaway7, part of the Subsea7 group, as preferred supplier](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/10/almost-500-uk-offshore-wind-jobs-to-be-supported-through-seaway7-agreement-for-sse-s-berwick-bank-b-project/) for turbine foundations and subsea inter-array cables, with [465 UK roles](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/10/almost-500-uk-offshore-wind-jobs-to-be-supported-through-seaway7-agreement-for-sse-s-berwick-bank-b-project/) expected through that agreement. That earlier package splits into [an estimated 160 direct roles with Seaway7, led from its Aberdeen base, with another 105 indirect roles in the UK domestic supply chain](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/10/almost-500-uk-offshore-wind-jobs-to-be-supported-through-seaway7-agreement-for-sse-s-berwick-bank-b-project/). A further [200 direct and indirect jobs are expected to be supported through turbine foundation marshalling roles at a Scottish port](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/10/almost-500-uk-offshore-wind-jobs-to-be-supported-through-seaway7-agreement-for-sse-s-berwick-bank-b-project/), still to be named. After the Seaway7 news, SSE put the total at [around 600 so far](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/10/almost-500-uk-offshore-wind-jobs-to-be-supported-through-seaway7-agreement-for-sse-s-berwick-bank-b-project/) across the UK. The Scottish Government has a [£500 million commitment to support offshore wind ports and supply chain](https://www.gov.scot/news/major-offshore-wind-expansion-at-port-of-montrose/) (about $669 million), and First Minister John Swinney said the Port of Montrose is [set to become one of the world's largest offshore wind operations and maintenance hubs](https://www.gov.scot/news/major-offshore-wind-expansion-at-port-of-montrose/). ## What This Means for Job Seekers in Scotland and Northern England, and What Should You Do Next? [The biggest group of new roles is in Glasgow](https://news.stv.tv/scotland/offshore-wind-farm-will-support-130-new-scottish-jobs-energy-giant-announces), not at Montrose Port. The new SSE roles are engineering and project delivery jobs on its [existing Berwick Bank B team](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/). If your experience is in engineering or project delivery, that is the group to target first. The Montrose jobs sit further out, because they are [servicing roles for the wind farm once it is operating](https://www.sserenewables.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-backs-more-than-450-scottish-jobs-taking-total-to-almost-1-000/). - **Engineers and project staff:** watch SSE's careers pages for Glasgow engineering and project delivery roles, and see [electrical engineer salary and how to earn more](https://www.metaintro.com/blog/electrical-engineer-salary) for what electrical engineers earn. - **Technicians with offshore tickets:** the [Seagreen supervisor listing](https://careers.sse.com/jobs/offshore-shift-supervisor-seagreen-offshore-wind-farm-montrose-angus-angus-united-kingdom) closes on the date above, so apply before then if you fit it. - **New entrants:** start with [SSE's apprentice and trainee programmes](https://careers.sse.com/apprenticeships-and-trainees). - **Workers in Hull, Manchester and Newcastle:** the jobs there are [existing and project-based roles expected to be supported](https://www.sse.com/news-and-views/2026/11/berwick-bank-b-to-support-more-than-2-600-uk-jobs-across-england-and-scotland/).
