  • Support project managers through commissioning and testing phases.
  • Participate in HAZOP and risk assessments.
  • Ensure compliance with health, safety, environmental, and quality policies.

About You

Skills & Experience

  • Degree (or HNC/HND with significant experience) in Electrical Engineering.
  • At least 2 years’ industry experience, ideally in power generation (1–25MW).
  • Strong knowledge of LV and MV power systems and associated control/instrumentation.
  • Familiarity with Microsoft Office.
  • Full UK/EU driving licence and the right to work in the UK.

The Benefits
