  • Understanding of how electrical or energy infrastructure is constructed and maintained
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Strong attention to detail and organisational ability
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Word, and Outlook

An understanding of National Grid or DNO standards would be an advantage.

What's in It for You

This role offers a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, including:

  • Company car and fuel card (EV / hybrid options available)
  • Private healthcare and health cash plan (for you and your family)
  • Matched or contributory pension scheme
  • Discretionary annual bonus
  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
  • Salary sacrifice EV car scheme
  • Online GP service (24/7 access)
  • Life assurance and employee assistance programme
  • Cycle to work and retail discount schemes

Why Apply

You'll be joining a forward-thinking internationally recognised business delivering essential energy and infrastructure services across the UK. Their culture is built on collaboration, safety, and continuous improvement — creating a supportive environment where people are encouraged to grow.

Whether your background is in estimating, commercial management, or project delivery, this is a great opportunity to progress your career within a business that's investing heavily in renewables, EV infrastructure, and the energy transition.
