About Us

Hoare Lea is a human-centric and planet-conscious engineering consultancy. We offer intelligent and sustainable solutions to complex design challenges for the built environment throughout the UK and further afield.

We provide a wide range of engineering and consultancy services, including acoustics, air quality, building services (MEP), fire, lighting, security and sustainability to name but a few. Together, our highly skilled teams use technical expertise and problem-solving skills to bring buildings to life. We ensure that whatever the building, its design is outstanding, and its operations meet the needs of the communities it serves.

We are as committed to providing an environment where everyone can realise their unique potential. So, in joining Hoare Lea, you will experience a business that enriches your knowledge, supports your wellbeing, and welcomes your individuality. You’ll have the opportunity to participate in our 9-day fortnight scheme, thriving community groups, varied social and networking events, and extensive professional and technical development schemes. We also offer an extensive benefits package, including private medical cover, electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme, stock options, and up to 30 days of annual leave.

Whatever your ambitions or circumstances, our aim is to enable everyone to develop their knowledge, give their best, and enjoy what they do.

About The Role

We have a brand-new opportunity for a Utility Associate to join our Utility and Energy Infrastructure team based in our London office. Working alongside a range of specialist engineers and consultants, you will be joining a collaborative, knowledgeable, highly engaged team who love what they do, and offer a supportive, flexible, and high-performing work culture.

It's an exciting time to join our UEI team. We have a proven track record working within the Building Services Sector unlocking many sites through innovative thinking. We are now branching out into large scale infrastructure projects, covering BESS, Solar, on / offshore wind, Data Centres and large scale masterplans including micro grids and flexible connections.

The management of risk posed by utility infrastructure on a successful building project is paramount to its success. Issues such as capacity shortages, encroachment on sites, aging assets and commercial opportunities are increasingly requiring a particular skill set to manage.

Hoare Lea has an established team of dedicated experienced consultants who assist developers with their utility industry interfaces, challenge the industry to do better and explore new opportunities in an evolving energy world.

To enable this team to grow, we are seeking people with experience in the industry to join us.

The successful applicant will be joining this exciting new group which is expanding its own work streams, diversifying its capabilities and helping support the business's existing staff to serve clients better. The role will involve assisting on project delivery, working with clients to manage the process of reinforcement, diversion and procurement of utility infrastructure. You will be working closely with the group’s Director, supporting other team members on a wide range of building projects with their varying utility infrastructure requirements and other energy projects.

The team is predominantly based in Bristol and Birmingham. This new role will help build our business in London, liaising with London directors, and building a new client base to reestablish a team.

In this key and varied role, you can expect to:

• Be a reliable partner for our clients to help deliver key initiatives that are often complex and demanding.
• Manage applications, provide consultations, design solutions, and oversee the process of site clearance and building connections to utility infrastructure.
• Take direction from management and take ownership of specific operations, including managing project leaders.
• Support team members and oversee the delivery of a variety of projects.
• Ensure that the quality of work and information provided to clients is consistently high.
• Provide support for business development initiatives.
• Build and lead a growing team in London.
• Mentor other team members.
  
  

We are looking for someone willing to introduce new ideas and initiatives for connecting generation to demand. While a background in utilities is beneficial, this role could also suit an electrical engineer seeking a new challenge while leveraging their existing skills and knowledge.

Additionally, You’ll Be Responsible For

• Technical application and operational standards
• Service quality and professional reputation
• Inter-office technical reporting and assistance
• Adherence to the firms QM, H&S and Environmental standards
  
  

What We Are Looking For

• Some experience in delivering utility connections, diversions and strategies for development projects in the UK.
• Understanding of Gas, Water, Electricity, Drainage and telecom industry. We recognize that not every candidate will have experience of every utility, and will consider those with experience of one or more utility but with a willingness to gain knowledge on all utility services.
• Proven project experience of utilities in the construction sector
• An understanding and ability to work closely with clients on challenging aspects
• An understanding for the need to have both a technical and commercial skill set
• Technical and commercial understanding of the industry
