Sector: HV Power / Energy Infrastructure / Renewables The Opportunity
I’m working with a growing HV engineering contractor delivering infrastructure projects across the UK.
They operate as a full turnkey provider, covering design, construction, commissioning and maintenance of electrical networks, with a strong pipeline across: Grid & private network connections Renewable energy (Solar / BESS) EV charging infrastructure Commercial & industrial developments
Due to continued growth, they’re looking to bring in a Senior Authorised Person (11/33kV) to support both HV operations and project delivery.
The Role
This is not a “standalone switching” position. You’ll play a key role across live network operations and project execution, working closely with delivery and engineering teams to energise and support new infrastructure.
Typical responsibilities include: Acting as SAP for switching operations (11/33kV) Supporting energisation and commissioning of new connections Overseeing HV installation works on site Ensuring compliance with DNO / IDNO standards and safety procedures Working alongside design, civils and delivery teams Supporting technical decision making and project delivery
What They’re Looking For Senior Authorised Person (11/33kV) Background in HV networks, connections, or infrastructure projects Experience working within DNO, ICP or HV contracting environments Strong understanding of UK power industry standards and procedures Comfortable working across site-based and project environments
Desirable: Experience with commissioning / energisation Exposure to renewables, EV or grid connection projects Relevant qualifications (HNC / SMSTS / IOSH etc.)
Why It’s Worth a Conversation Blend of HV operations + project delivery (not siloed) Exposure to renewables, EV and grid infrastructure projects Opportunity to work across multiple asset types and environments Growing business with a strong pipeline of work…
