Electrical Engineer

We are seeking a highly skilled Electrical Engineer with HV (High Voltage) and SLD (Single Line Diagram) expertise to support the design, delivery and commissioning of renewable and HVAC‑integrated electrical systems.

You will play a key role in ensuring safe, compliant, and efficient electrical infrastructure across Solar PV, heat pump, and multi‑technology decarbonisation projects.

This role is ideal for an engineer who thrives in a fast‑growing, sustainability‑driven environment and enjoys working on complex, multi‑disciplinary installations.

Key Responsibilities

Design & Engineering

• Produce, review and update Single Line Diagrams (SLDs) for LV and HV systems.
• Design electrical systems for Solar PV, ASHP, GSHP, HVAC and integrated renewable solutions.
• Conduct HV/LV load assessments, fault‑level calculations and protection coordination.
• Specify switchgear, transformers, inverters, cabling and protection devices.
• Ensure designs comply with BS7671, G99/G100, DNO requirements and relevant HV standards.

Project Delivery

• Provide electrical engineering support throughout project lifecycle—from feasibility to commissioning.
• Liaise with DNOs/IDNOs for grid applications, export limitations and HV connections.
• Conduct site surveys, risk assessments and method statements.
• Support installation teams with technical guidance and issue resolution.
• Oversee testing, inspection and commissioning of electrical systems.

Compliance & Safety

• Ensure all electrical works meet statutory, regulatory and internal compliance standards.
• Maintain documentation for accreditations, certifications and audit requirements.
• Champion safe systems of work, including HV switching procedures and permit‑to‑work processes.

Collaboration & Stakeholder Engagement

• Work closely with internal design, operations, and compliance teams.
• Engage with clients, consultants and contractors to ensure technical clarity and project success.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of engineering processes and standards.

Skills & Experience Required

Essential

• Degree or HNC/HND in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent).
• Proven experience with HV systems, including switching, protection and distribution.
• Strong capability in producing and interpreting SLDs.
• Experience in renewable energy systems (Solar PV, heat pumps, or similar).
• Working knowledge of BS7671, G99/G100, HV codes of practice and DNO processes.
• Competent in electrical design software (e.g., AutoCAD, Amtech/Trimble).
• Full UK driving licence.

Desirable

• Experience in commercial/industrial decarbonisation projects.
• Authorised Person (AP) or Senior Authorised Person (SAP) HV status.
• Knowledge of HVAC electrical integration.
• Experience working with local authorities, FM providers or utility companies.
• ECS/CSCS, SMSTS/SSSTS or similar site qualifications.

What We Offer

• Opportunity to work with the UK’s leading commercial renewable‑energy provider.
• Involvement in award‑winning national decarbonisation projects.
• Professional development and progression within a growing engineering team.
• Competitive salary, vehicle allowance, pension and benefits.
• Supportive, sustainability‑focused culture.
