• Reviewing electrical designs, technical specifications, proposals and submissions.
• Taking technical responsibility for smaller projects, work packages and design tasks.
• Supporting key design reviews for Water Authority AMP projects.
• Working on Water treatment works, Wastewater treatment works, pumping stations, reservoirs and associated water infrastructure.
• Providing technical guidance and electrical design input to multidisciplinary engineering teams and project stakeholders.
• Supporting projects from initial concept and feasibility through to detailed design and delivery.

To be considered, you will need:

• An Electrical Engineering degree or equivalent qualification.
• Experience delivering projects through the full design lifecycle, from inception through to detailed design.
• Previous UK Water or Wastewater sector experience.
• Experience working on AMP–related projects for a UK Water Authority.
• Experience using 3D design tools and other relevant proprietary engineering software.
• The ability to take technical responsibility for smaller projects and individual work packages.
• Experience designing electrical solutions for Water treatment works, Wastewater treatment works, pumping stations, reservoirs or associated water infrastructure.

This Senior / Principal Electrical Design Engineer role offers the opportunity to take on greater technical responsibility within an established engineering team while contributing to major Water and Wastewater projects across the UK.
