We're supporting a leading developer at the forefront of the UK's energy transition, delivering large-scale EV charging and renewable energy infrastructure across the country. They're looking for a Grid Connections Engineer to join their Pre-Construction team, overseeing all aspects of grid connections from application to energisation.

Review SLDs (single-line diagrams) and technical documentation to ensure compliance and efficiency. Advise on connection strategies, balancing capacity, cost, and delivery timelines. Support construction teams during energisation, ensuring DNO requirements are met. What We're Looking For Background in power networks, grid connections, or electrical infrastructure. Experience working with or for a DNO, IDNO, ICP, or developer. Strong understanding of G99 applications, connection offers, and DNO processes. Confidence reviewing technical drawings and connection studies. Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills. Engineering qualification (HNC / HND / Degree) in Electrical or Power Engineering.
