As a result of our growing portfolio of projects in the Water Sector ahead of AMP 8, we are actively seeking a Principal Electrical Engineer to join our team in the Midlands and West.

This role can be based out of our offices in Exeter, Bristol or Cardiff in the West or Birmingham, Derby or Redditch in the Midlands. You will grow our reputation within the local community and Water Business by providing EICA design services for a range of projects.

As an experienced EICA Engineer, you will work in multidisciplinary teams and liaise with Project Managers, Design Managers, and Design Engineers as well as clients, supply chain partners, contractors, and other stakeholders to achieve positive outcomes for the projects and community. You will be involved in projects from optioneering and concept design through to outline and detailed design as well as feasibility studies, site surveys, and site investigations.

About You
