Senior Electrical Engineer – Offshore Wind (Cables & Connectors)

If you’re experienced in offshore wind cable systems and want a role with real technical depth across commissioning, testing, and system performance — this is worth a look.

We’re working with a global engineering business delivering complex offshore projects, looking to bring in a Senior Electrical Engineer specialising in HV cables and connectors.

The work sits within large-scale offshore wind projects, supporting critical cable infrastructure from installation through to commissioning.

What makes this different

  • Focus on inter-array cable systems and connectors (specialist, not generalist work)
  • Involvement in commissioning, diagnostics, and system integrity
  • Opportunity to contribute to engineering standards and approach
  • Exposure to offshore projects and installation environments

You’ll need experience in:

  • Offshore wind cable systems (ESSENTIAL)
  • Connectors, terminations, and HV testing
  • Standards such as IEC / IEEE / CIGRÉ
  • Working across engineering + offshore environments

£65000 – £80,000 + package
