You will gain hands‑on experience working on electrical systems such as lighting, small power, cable containment, and low‑voltage (LV) power distribution.

This role offers a great opportunity to learn from experienced engineers, work within a multi-disciplinary team, and contribute to real‑world engineering solutions on a nationally significant transport hub.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support the production of electrical design layouts, mark‑ups, schedules, and calculations under guidance.
• Assist with drafting technical specifications and reviewing supplier documentation.
• Contribute to the coordination of electrical services with other engineering disciplines.
• Use engineering software tools (e.g., Dialux, Amtech) to support design tasks.
• Attend internal team meetings and contribute to design discussions and coordination efforts.

• Familiarity with design tools such as AutoCAD, Revit, Amtech, Dialux or Relux (training can be provided).
• Good written and verbal communication skills.
• Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a team environment.
• A proactive and enthusiastic approach to learning and development.

Desirable:

• Internship or placement experience in an engineering design environment.
