Job description

Graduate Project Engineer – Power Generation

Location – Avonmouth

Starting Salary - £28,000 per year

At DTGen, we’re part of the Flogas Britain family — and we’re proud to power progress. As a trusted name in standby and emergency power systems, we’re expanding fast, with new contracts across the UK and Europe. Now, we’re on the lookout for bright, hands-on graduates to help us deliver the energy solutions of tomorrow.

This is your chance to kick-start a career in engineering with real purpose. You’ll join our projects delivery team, get stuck into live work from day one, and build a rock-solid foundation across departments — from technical design to site integration. We’ll support your growth every step of the way, with a clear path toward becoming a Junior Project Manager (and beyond).

If you’re studying — or have recently graduated — in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering, and you’re ready to roll up your sleeves, we want to hear from you. Construction site experience? That’s a bonus, but not essential.

What you’ll be doing:

• Supporting our Head of Projects and senior managers to deliver big results
• Working to current Construction, Electrical, and Industry standards — safely and professionally
• Collaborating with our CAD and Technical teams on system designs and site connections
• Learning our products inside and out with help from our engineering and OEM partners
• Shadowing project managers and undertaking accredited training
• Getting to grips with the numbers by working alongside our Sales and Energy Solutions teams

What we’re offering:

• A competitive salary (because your future starts now)
• 33 days’ holiday a year (including bank holidays)
• Company pension and life assurance
• A structured development plan, with mentoring and formal training
• A place where your ideas matter — and your effort gets noticed

Inclusion, Diversity & Flexibility

At DTGen, part of Flogas, everyone is welcome. We’re committed to building a team that reflects the diverse world we live in and to creating an inclusive environment where people feel respected, supported, and able to thrive.

We also understand that flexibility matters. If you need a working pattern that’s different to what’s advertised, we encourage you to talk to us — we’re always open to making it work.
