Meet Ignacio Carballo, our Head of Development in America, and gain insight into his role as director of a dedicated development team. Ignacio plays an important role in maintaining an overview of projects in America. He explains his role:
“The process involves mapping out all the relevant details and coordinating the various procedures. It is impossible to design a project without first establishing what permits are required and what is allowed in construction. Once the necessary information has been obtained, you can arrange after that. It is essential for me to understand the sequence of events to proceed effectively.”
In his work, Ignacio values the chance to tackle new challenges. He finds motivation in the continuous learning and development that each day brings. It is fulfilling for him to see his progress and know that he is constantly evolving; he shares:
“I consider myself lucky to have had the opportunity to pursue a career in something I am passionate about while being challenged. I like being challenged because I enjoy the whole process of problem-solving and developing solutions. I really appreciate that I can employ that at work while contributing to the renewable energy sector.”
Motivated by a fun and enjoyable working environment
Not only does learning motivate Ignacio, but personal development in a fun environment is essential for him in a job. While he thrives in an atmosphere where he can continuously expand his knowledge and skills, an enjoyable work environment also keeps him engaged and enthusiastic. He believes that when work is both challenging and enjoyable, it leads to greater personal satisfaction and productivity. Thoughts that align well with BPP’s value balance. Namely, the importance of a healthy working culture, where knowledge-sharing, autonomy, and teamwork are valued, he shares:
“At Blue Power Partners, a positive and engaging work environment is ensured through a healthy level of enjoyment. The atmosphere is welcoming with a positive and friendly atmosphere. It is possible to work and have fun at the same time, either on your own or by sharing your knowledge with colleagues. This is a key priority for me. I experienced that Blue Power Partners is one of those companies where a positive work environment is fostered.”
Inspired by variety
Ignacio’s work is characterized by a high degree of variety. Given his enthusiasm for new challenges, this role is well-suited to him and encourages his appetite for further learning. He states,
“One of the aspects I find most appealing about this role is the variety of tasks and responsibilities that are involved. No two days are ever the same. The variety is one of the aspects I find most appealing. When I get to the office, I always have a clear idea of what I intend to achieve that day. This never happens. However, the variety of tasks and challenges that arise daily also ensures that the role remains interesting and engaging.”
A personal fit in renewable energy
Looking ahead, Ignacio draws attention to the potential for growth once again. Furthermore, he appreciates the fact that renewable energy represents our future and is grateful for his contribution to this field:
“I find that facing challenges and keeping my brain engaged is the best way for me to stay productive. If I have that, I am satisfied. Furthermore, Blue Power is pioneering a unique approach to renewable energy. The demand for power continues to grow. Renewable energy is an excellent fit for me because it offers two key benefits: the opportunity to tackle challenging problems and the chance to contribute to the production of energy in a meaningful way. You feel like you are leaving a legacy behind.”
