Role Description
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our rapidly expanding team. We are looking for a well-rounded Electrical Project Engineer to take ownership of the electrical delivery of projects from concept through to commissioning and start of production.
The role focuses on overseeing all electrical aspects of project execution, including panel build, electrical installation, and material flow for both workshop and on-site teams.
