Ready to take your electrical engineering career to the next level?
We're looking for an experienced Senior or Principal Electrical Design Engineer to join a leading Building Services consultancy in Manchester.
This is a role for an engineer who can do more than produce designs. We're looking for someone who can lead projects, influence clients, mentor engineers and take technical ownership.
What you'll be doing
You'll be involved across a diverse portfolio of exciting UK projects, taking responsibility for electrical design from RIBA Stage 1 through to Stage 6/7.
Your responsibilities will include:
Leading electrical design on major building-services projects
Producing and reviewing electrical calculations, specifications and technical reports
Developing LV distribution, lighting, small power, containment and life-safety systems
Coordinating electrical designs with wider MEP and multidisciplinary teams
Working directly with clients, contractors and other design professionals
Providing technical guidance and mentoring to junior and intermediate engineers
Reviewing designs and ensuring technical quality and compliance
Contributing to fee proposals, tenders and business development
Helping develop innovative and sustainable engineering solutions What we're looking for
We're looking for an experienced electrical engineer with a strong Building Services consultancy background.
You should have:
A degree/HND/HNC in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline
Significant electrical building-services design experience
Strong knowledge of UK electrical standards and regulations
Experience delivering projects through multiple RIBA stages
Excellent communication and client-facing skills
Experience mentoring or supervising engineers
Strong technical design and problem-solving ability
Experience with Revit and/or AutoCAD
Experience with electrical design/calculation software such as Amtech/Trimble
Chartered Engineer status (CEng) with the IET or CIBSE - or demonstrably working towards Chartership Chartership matters
We're particularly interested in engineers who are already Chartered or actively working towards CEng.
If you're currently working towards Chartership, the business will support your professional development and give you the opportunity to build the experience required to achieve it.
If you're already CEng, even better.
Why consider the role?
You'll be joining an organisation where technical expertise is valued and where Senior and Principal Engineers have the opportunity to genuinely influence projects and the direction of the team.
You'll get:
Hybrid working
Flexible working arrangements
Competitive salary
Professional development
Support towards Chartership
Opportunity to work on major UK projects
Strong career progression
Technical leadership opportunities
A collaborative multidisciplinary environment Interested?
If you're a Senior Electrical Design Engineer, Principal Electrical Engineer or Associate-level engineer looking for your next move — particularly if you're CEng or working towards Chartership — I'd like to hear from you.
