Havant, Hampshire, United Kingdom SAACKE GmbH Full time £35,000 - £55,000 per year

Looking for your next engineering challenge?

Join a growing, close-knit engineering team that designs and delivers bespoke industrial control systems for a global OEM specialising in industrial combustion plant. You'll be part of a company that provides tailored, high-quality solutions to clients in energy, manufacturing, healthcare, petrochemical, and pharmaceuticals — helping power essential industries around the world.

The Role

Reporting to the Design Manager, you'll play a key role within our M&E Design Team — taking projects from concept through to completion.

You'll:

  • Design bespoke control systems using AutoCAD Electrical
  • Produce electrical schematics, layout drawings, and cable schedules
  • Compile bills of materials and project-specific documentation
  • Get hands-on with functional testing, FAT support, and site surveys

While the role is primarily office-based, you'll enjoy a healthy mix of design and practical engineering, ensuring your work directly contributes to real-world solutions.

About You
You're an analytical, detail-oriented engineer who enjoys problem-solving and seeing your designs come to life. You may be qualified to HNC level (or equivalent experience) in electrical/electronic engineering and ideally have experience with industrial, building services, or HVAC systems.

You'll bring:

  • Strong grasp of electrical circuit theory and schematic interpretation
  • Familiarity with UK electrical legislation
  • Experience using AutoCAD Electrical (preferred)
  • A proactive mindset and the ability to manage your own workload

(Bonus points if you have experience with control panel design, Functional Safety, or industrial combustion equipment — but training will be provided)

Why Join Us?

We're proud to offer a supportive, collaborative workplace that values both professional growth and work-life balance. Expect to be part of a team that encourages learning, new ideas, and real responsibility from day one.

Benefits include:

  • 25 days annual leave + bank holidays
  • Extra birthday and wellbeing leave
  • Casual dress and half-days on Fridays
  • Flexible hours
  • Company pension
  • Free on-site parking and on-site gym
