Are you an innovative Electrical Design Engineer ready to shape the future of low-carbon energy systems?

Do you want to work on groundbreaking projects that decarbonise communities and redefine sustainable heating?

Our client is a fast-growing, UK-based innovator in low-carbon energy, committed to delivering over £1bn in heat network projects. They design, build, and operate cutting-edge district heating systems, working with local authorities and developers to create sustainable solutions for towns and cities. Their culture thrives on collaboration, creativity, and challenging the status quo-no silos, just smart thinking.

As an Electrical Design Engineer with our client, you'll play a key role in designing electrical systems for large-scale heat networks, from concept through to operation.

With hybrid working and site visits across the UK, you'll enjoy variety, growth, and the chance to innovate in a rapidly expanding sector.

You're a proactive, detail-oriented engineer with a passion for sustainable energy and a knack for problem-solving. With experience in electrical building services and proficiency in AutoCAD, Revit, and Dialux, you thrive in dynamic teams and love pushing boundaries. You're not just looking for a job-you want a career where your work directly impacts the fight against climate change.

The Role

• Design electrical systems for heat networks, from feasibility to construction.
• Produce detailed drawings, calculations, and specifications.
• Coordinate with multidisciplinary teams and manage third-party designs.
• Conduct site surveys and optioneering studies.
• Ensure compliance with industry standards while innovating for efficiency.
