Discover the Key Roles We Recruit for Biomass

At Orion, we come across a wide variety of roles and positions for Biomass. Here is a list of the most common roles our clients are recruiting for:

In a Research and Design role, a biofuel specialist in the biomass sector focuses on developing, optimising, and implementing technologies for converting organic materials into renewable energy sources. They design and improve biomass conversion processes, research new feedstock options, and optimise fermentation or chemical reactions to enhance biofuel production efficiency. These specialists evaluate the sustainability of biofuel production, considering factors such as greenhouse gas emissions and environmental impacts. 

With our connections to Renewables and Life Sciences, Orion is in the sweet spot for identifying biomass contractors or permanent hires that clients require within their biomass project. 

As the world seeks to reduce carbon emissions during the energy transition, biomass engineers are in high demand as they convert organic materials like agricultural residues, wood, and waste into renewable energy sources. The biomass engineer designs and manages biomass power, plants biomass systems, and biofuel production facilities, aiming to create sustainable and eco-friendly energy solutions that reduce reliance on fossil fuels while transforming organic materials into clean, renewable energy. 

At Orion, we have decades of experience providing engineering and technical talent across energy industries. Our recruitment expertise ensures we match the best engineers with the evolving needs of the biomass energy sector.


Like any new or emerging industry, there is always a need for business development managers to identify new opportunities, attract new customers and grow the business in the biomass sector. There is a demand for both biomass sales jobs and business development as the biomass sector continues to gather pace. 

With our extensive network of global offices, Orion is well placed for identifying and filling any biomass sales jobs with a large section of Business Development and Sales Managers within our continually expanding database of renewable talent.

While the biomass industry is built on creating renewable energy from waste materials, there is still a need to ensure all processes are carried out environmentally and sustainably. That’s why Environmental Engineers are required to ensure compliance with regulations and sustainability standards. Environmental engineers ensure compliance with regulations and sustainability standards, applying their expertise in math and physical sciences to design, construct, and maintain bioenergy infrastructure while minimising environmental impact.

You can rely on Orion and be assured that our recruitment specialists are trained to the highest level to spot those profiles who match your requirements precisely across a range of skills, experience, location, and backgrounds.

From an Operations and Management perspective, Plant Managers oversee the day-to-day operations of biomass power plants and facilities. Their roles include leading and supervising biomass power plant operations and maintenance staff, as well as ensuring maintenance activities are followed according to regulations. They monitor and adjust equipment to ensure that appropriate production levels are met and comply with environmental standards. 

Orion's global office network and local market intelligence in Biomass and Managerial positions, we ensure we are able to rapidly and efficiently mobilise people and projects faster.

Process engineers in biomass focus on designing, developing, and optimising systems that convert organic materials into heat, electricity, and biofuels. These engineers are responsible for designing biomass power plants, managing feedstock sourcing, developing energy conversion technologies, ensuring environmental compliance, and overseeing project management. This rewarding role means they are making an impact in reducing waste and turning it into a renewable energy source while reducing harmful emissions.

Orion Group is well-placed to identify biomass contractors and permanent process engineers who possess the technical expertise required to advance the energy transition and improve biomass process efficiencies.
