  • Engineering reports
• Supporting multidisciplinary design activities and coordinating interfaces with Mechanical, Process and C&I disciplines.
• Capturing, interpreting and translating client and stakeholder requirements into practical engineering solutions.
• Supporting design reviews, constructability assessments and engineering assurance activities.

Safety, Risk & Compliance

• Leading the completion of Designer Risk Assessments and contributing to design safety reviews.
• Undertaking site surveys, inspections and engineering investigations.
• Supporting Lightning Risk Assessments and mitigation strategies.
• Providing technical input to DSEAR compliance activities.
• Ensuring all designs are compliant with applicable legislation, standards, client requirements and industry best practice.
• Promoting a strong safety culture throughout the design and delivery process.

Technical Assurance & Stakeholder Management The Senior EC&I Engineer will provide technical oversight and act as a key interface between project and assurance functions by:

• Reviewing and approving technical deliverables within delegated authority limits.
• Providing technical support to procurement activities, including:
• • Technical bid evaluations
  • Equipment selection and vendor management
  • Review and authorisation of Technical Query (TQ) responses
• Supporting design reviews, hazard studies and project gate reviews.
• Mentoring and providing technical guidance to junior engineers and designers.
• Contributing to continuous improvement initiatives, engineering standards and lessons learned activities.

Experience & Qualifications Essential

• Degree (or equivalent qualification) in Electrical Engineering, Control Engineering, Instrumentation Engineering, or a related discipline.
• Significant experience delivering EC&I engineering solutions within industrial, process, energy or infrastructure environments.
• Demonstrable experience producing and reviewing electrical calculations and design documentation.
• Strong working knowledge of:
• • Low Voltage (LV) electrical systems
  • Control and instrumentation systems
  • DSEAR and hazardous area engineering principles
  • Relevant British and international engineering standards
• Experience operating within multidisciplinary engineering teams.
• Ability to lead technical work packages and coordinate engineering activities across multiple stakeholders.

Desirable

• Experience using Trimble ProDesign or equivalent electrical design software.
• Experience working within regulated or safety-critical industries such as nuclear, defence, energy, petrochemical, water or pharmaceutical sectors.
• Knowledge of ATEX equipment selection and hazardous area compliance.
• Membership of a relevant professional institution.
• Incorporated Engineer (IEng) status or progress towards Chartered Engineer (CEng) registration.

Key Characteristics

• Strong technical engineering capability with a hands-on approach to problem solving.
• Ability to lead engineering activities without direct line management responsibility.
• Effective stakeholder engagement and communication skills.
• Strong understanding of engineering governance, safety and compliance requirements.
• Commitment to delivering high-quality engineering solutions in complex, regulated environments.
