LSP OPENS NEW OFFICE IN BARROW TO SUPPORT GROWTH IN SUBSEA RECRUITMENT!

We’re delighted to announce the official opening of our newest UK office in Barrow-in-Furness. This strategic expansion marks a major milestone in LSP’s growth journey and reinforces our commitment to supporting the evolving needs of the UK’s booming subsea and offshore energy markets.

"Barrow is a natural fit for our expansion," said Lewis Duffy, Director at LSP Renewables. "Its close proximity to key offshore wind and subsea infrastructure projects allows us to connect talent with opportunity and collaborate even more closely with our partners on the ground. We’re excited to bring our deep industry knowledge and specialist recruitment expertise to the region."

The Barrow office will be led by Leam Da Silva, Head of Subsea at LSP Renewables, who brings extensive industry experience and hands-on knowledge of the offshore and subsea recruitment landscape. Under his leadership, the office will serve as a dedicated hub focused on identifying, engaging, and supporting top-tier talent across the full spectrum of subsea and offshore disciplines.

This includes specialised roles in ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) operations, commercial diving, subsea engineering, project management, cable installation, and inspection services—critical functions underpinning the success of offshore wind and marine infrastructure projects throughout the UK and beyond.

In addition to recruitment, the Barrow office will act as a catalyst for regional workforce development, offering enhanced support to clients, deeper candidate engagement, and a stronger on-the-ground presence in one of the UK’s most important coastal energy hubs.

“We’re seeing rapid growth in demand for highly skilled subsea professionals, and Barrow puts us right at the centre of the action,” said Leam Da Silva. “This office enables us to build closer relationships with clients and candidates, respond quickly to project needs, and actively support the long-term workforce driving the energy transition. It’s an exciting time for the region and for LSP.”

By embedding ourselves in the heart of the subsea industry, we reaffirm our commitment to driving sustainable growth and innovation across the energy sector. This expansion is a key part of LSP’s broader mission to build meaningful, long-term careers in renewable energy while supporting the UK’s journey toward a net-zero future.
