You will be responsible for coordinating controls engineering activities across a range of projects, liaising with internal teams, clients, suppliers and contractors. The role requires a practical, solutions-focused engineer who can manage competing priorities while maintaining a strong focus on safety, quality and performance.

Key responsibilities

  • Coordinate the design, procurement, manufacture, installation and testing of control systems.
  • Support the preparation of project plans, schedules, cost estimates, risk assessments and progress reports.
  • Work with electrical, mechanical, software and process engineering teams to ensure effective system integration.
  • Review supplier documentation, drawings, calculations and equipment specifications.
  • Attend design reviews, factory acceptance tests, site acceptance tests and commissioning activities.
  • Provide technical support during installation, testing and fault-finding, including occasional travel to customer or project sites.
  • Ensure all work complies with relevant legislation, industry standards, internal procedures and health and safety requirements.

About you

You will ideally hold a degree or equivalent qualification in Control Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Instrumentation or a related discipline. Experience delivering controls projects within an industrial, manufacturing, energy, infrastructure or process environment is highly desirable.

You should have a sound understanding of PLC, SCADA, HMI or DCS technologies, together with experience interpreting electrical and instrumentation drawings. Strong project coordination skills, commercial awareness and the ability to communicate clearly with stakeholders at all levels are essential. Familiarity with relevant safety standards and engineering software would be advantageous.

This role offers the opportunity to contribute to technically challenging projects while developing your expertise within a collaborative engineering environment.
