About Sunsure Energy

Sunsure Energy is one of India’s fastest-growing renewable energy Independent Power Producers (IPPs), developing utility-scale solar, wind and hybrid power projects for commercial & industrial (C&I) and utility customers. Headquartered in Gurugram, Sunsure develops and operates projects across Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh, backed by marquee global investors.

Role Purpose

The incumbent will own end-to-end site execution of Transmission Line (TL) packages for power evacuation from Sunsure’s renewable energy projects – from contractor mobilization through route check-survey support, foundation, tower erection, conductor & OPGW stringing, testing, charging and handover. The role covers 33 kV internal lines (solar plant and wind WTG/USS networks), 132 kV STU-connected lines and 220 kV STU / ISTS-connected lines. Based full-time at the project site, the incumbent is Sunsure’s primary execution interface with the TL contractor’s field team, and works closely with the Head Office Services (Procurement & Contracts), Design & Engineering, Quality and OH&S teams to deliver the line on time, within cost and to specified quality and safety standards.

Key Responsibilities

1. Construction Planning & Execution

• Lead site execution of TL works – access road & route clearances, foundation (open-cast, raft, pile, rock-anchor), tower erection, conductor & OPGW stringing, sag-tensioning, earthing, testing and commissioning – across 33 kV, 132 kV and 220 kV packages.
• Prepare and enforce detailed L2/L3 construction schedules, micro-plans, tower-wise catch-up plans and resource mobilization plans with the contractor; track front availability vs. deployment.
• Plan execution around seasonal constraints (monsoon windows, crop cycles, harvest seasons) and sequence ROW-sensitive stretches to protect the commissioning date and PPA milestones.
• Coordinate check-survey, tower spotting and route profile validation with the contractor’s survey team and HO Design & Engineering; flag route-length or bay-coordinate changes immediately for commercial action.
• Drive pre-commissioning checks, line testing protocols, statutory inspections and line charging in coordination with STU / CTU / PGCIL authorities; manage shutdown/outage planning for crossings and interconnections.

2. Quality & Documentation

• Enforce the approved Field Quality Plan (FQP) and project-specific quality norms across all stages – soil investigation, concrete works (cube tests), erection tolerances, stringing parameters and earthing values.
• Ensure timely submission and closure of RFIs, MIRs, Construction Record Sheets (CRS), pour cards and stage-inspection sign-offs; maintain complete as-built quality dossiers for handover.
• Coordinate with HO Material Quality on MDCC-cleared material receipt at site and with Field Quality on third-party/stage inspections; drive closure of NCRs and punch points.

3. Safety (OH&S)

• Implement Sunsure’s OH&S policy at site; ensure contractor adherence to the approved Safety Management Plan, work-at-height and stringing safety protocols, PTW system and emergency response procedures.
• Conduct toolbox talks, site safety audits, mock drills and incident investigations; track and close safety observations, and report leading/lagging indicators to HO OH&S.

4. ROW & Statutory Liaison

• Proactively manage Right of Way (ROW) along the TL corridor – monitor the contractor’s execution of ROW/wayleave consent documents with landowners, verify crop & tree compensation settlements, and resolve escalations with landowners, village bodies, revenue officials and district administration.
• Support and track the contractor’s statutory approvals at the field level: Section 68 & 164 (Electricity Act 2003), PTCC, Forest NOCs, National/State Highway and railway crossing permissions, AAI/MOD clearances (where triggered), CEIG/CEA approvals and Work Completion Certificate (WCC) from the relevant STU.
• Liaise with State DISCOMs/STUs, PGCIL/CTUIL and local authorities for inspections, outages, crossings and clearances; maintain an approvals tracker aligned with the construction schedule.

5. Contractor, Billing & Compliance Management

• Supervise and direct the contractor’s site organization – project manager, field engineers, gangs and subcontractors; hold daily/weekly progress and recovery reviews.
• Verify and certify physical progress through joint measurements; validate Running Account (RA) bills against the agreed Bill Break-Up Unit (BBU) and actual site progress before recommending to HO for payment.
• Monitor contractor labour compliance submissions (PF/ESI, BOCW, labour licences, wage records) in coordination with HO Projects and HR/Admin.
• Identify, record and notify variations, hindrances and EOT events with proper site documentation (hindrance register, photographs, MoMs) to support HO Services in commercial settlements.

6. Materials & Logistics

• Track receipt, storage and reconciliation of tower steel, conductor, OPGW, insulators, hardware and earthing materials against dispatch schedules and BOQ; control material wastage and ensure SOP-compliant handling.
• Plan material call-offs against erection fronts to avoid site holding losses, theft/damage exposure and idle-front situations.

7. Reporting & HO Coordination

• Publish DPRs, WPRs and MPRs with physical & financial progress, manpower/machinery deployment, ROW status and constraint logs; present in weekly contractor review meetings with HO.
• Act as the site-level counterpart to HO Services (Procurement & Contracts) for contract administration inputs, to Design & Engineering for technical clarifications and drawing approvals, and to Quality/OH&S for compliance closure.

Scope of Packages Handled

• 33 kV internal transmission lines – solar plant internal evacuation and wind WTG interconnection (USS) networks, including SPDC/pole-based lines.
• 132 kV STU-connected transmission lines (state utility specifications, e.g. RVPNL/UPPTCL).
• 220 kV STU-connected and ISTS-connected transmission lines (PGCIL/CTU interface, GETCO/KPTCL-type tower standards).

Candidate Profile

Experience & Knowledge

• 12–18 years of experience in transmission line EPC project execution with a renewable energy IPP/developer, power transmission company, T&D EPC contractor or utility.
• Must have independently led site execution of 132 kV / 220 kV or higher voltage class transmission lines end-to-end – foundation to charging; ISTS/PGCIL-connected renewable evacuation experience strongly preferred.
• Expertise in TL construction methods: foundation classes, erection methodologies (built-up/derrick/crane), stringing (manual & tension stringing), sag-tension practices, OPGW installation and shutdown/crossing works.
• Working knowledge of survey techniques (route survey, check-survey, tower spotting), CEA technical standards, STU design standards (GETCO/RVPNL/KPTCL or equivalent) and field quality documentation.
• Hands-on experience of ROW resolution and statutory approval processes (Sec 68/164, PTCC, forest, highway/railway crossings, CEIG/CEA) in Indian field conditions.

Skills & Competencies

• Strong contractor management and progress-recovery skills; able to convert plans into tower-wise, gang-wise execution on the ground.
• Sound commercial awareness – measurement, billing certification, variation/hindrance documentation and claims hygiene.
• Strong leadership, stakeholder management and conflict-resolution skills for landowner, village-level and authority interfaces.
• Proficiency in MS Project/Primavera, MS Excel and reporting tools; disciplined documentation (DPR/WPR/MPR, MoMs, registers).
• High integrity, self-drive and resilience to work in remote, challenging field conditions; willingness for pan-India site postings.
