Project Engineer, Renewables Electrical Engineering
An exciting opportunity is available for a Project Engineer to support the delivery of renewable energy projects from early development through to construction and commissioning. This role will suit an electrical engineering professional with experience in renewable power, energy infrastructure or a related technical environment, who is keen to contribute to the transition towards a lower-carbon energy system.
You will provide technical input across project design, procurement, construction and handover, working closely with internal teams, consultants, contractors and equipment suppliers. The position will involve coordinating electrical engineering activities, reviewing technical documentation and helping to ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently, on time and in accordance with relevant standards.
Key responsibilities
- Develop and review electrical designs for renewable energy projects, including generation, storage, grid connection and associated balance-of-plant systems.
- Prepare and assess specifications, scopes of work, drawings, calculations, schedules and technical reports.
- Support grid connection studies, network interface requirements, protection and control design, earthing, cable systems and electrical equipment selection.
- Coordinate technical interfaces between engineering disciplines, contractors, suppliers, network operators and other stakeholders.
- Review supplier and contractor submissions, monitor technical compliance and assist with resolving design and site issues.
- Contribute to project risk assessments, design reviews, constructability assessments and commissioning activities.
- Maintain accurate project records and support the continuous improvement of engineering processes and standards.
About you
You will hold a degree or equivalent qualification in Electrical Engineering and ideally have experience in renewable energy, power systems, utilities, construction or major infrastructure projects. Knowledge of UK electrical standards, grid codes, health and safety requirements and relevant industry legislation would be advantageous.
You should be confident interpreting technical information, managing competing priorities and communicating effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Strong analytical, organisational and problem-solving skills are essential, together with a collaborative approach and a commitment to delivering high-quality engineering outcomes. Occasional travel to project and supplier sites may be required.
