  • Develop comprehensive engineering designs, calculations, and specifications using relevant technical software.
  • Prepare detailed technical reports, specifications, drawings, schematics, and other design documents across different stages of project lifecycles.
  • Model complex networks and perform steady-state studies (load-flow, short-circuit, protection coordination, arc flash), dynamic/transient simulation, and harmonic analysis to validate and verify developed designs.
  • Define, refine, and lead the delivery of specific work packages assigned by the project lead, while coordinating input/workstreams from other disciplines as required.
  • Supervise, mentor, and review the work of junior colleagues.
  • Communicate and collaborate with stakeholders, suppliers, contractors, vendors, and clients in a professional manner within a multidisciplinary and multicultural environment.
  • Participate and lead (where required) client and project meetings.
  • Identify and develop improvements in project delivery methodologies.
The Skills
  • Degree in Power Systems Engineering or a related field.
  • Chartered engineer (or working towards) with a recognized body.
  • Experience in an Electrical Engineering role within the power systems field, preferably in consultancy or an OEM/equipment vendor environment, delivering grid substation or renewable projects.
  • Experience with UK DNO/TO design standards and requirements above 33kV.
  • Proven ability to produce design documentation such as schematic diagrams, fault and discrimination studies, specifications, and project reports.
  • Experience in one of the following at 33kV or above:
    • Substation Primary Design (FEED/Detailed)
    • Substation Secondary Design (FEED/Detailed)
    • HV Plant Design (FEED/Detailed)
  • Good communicator with excellent stakeholder management skills.
Desirable Skills
  • Proficiency with power systems analysis software (e.g., DIgSILENT Power Factory, ETAP, or SKM-PTW).
  • Proficiency with AutoCAD or equivalent design tools is advantageous.
  • Knowledge of UK/European Grid Codes and grid compliance studies is advantageous.
  • Scripting knowledge in Python (or similar) is beneficial.
  • Growth mindset with a desire for continuous learning and development.
