Project Engineer (MEICA)
As a Project Engineer within the MEICA business, you will bring demonstrable MEICA or industrial installation experience and practical skills to the team. You will provide the detailed technical input to the project and ensure that the work is safe and meets the specifications before implementation. The Project Engineer will have a strong focus on achieving safety targets and will have zero tolerance for unsafe working practices and occurrences.
