Senior Electrical Engineer

Birmingham / Hybrid £80,000-£100,000 + package (up to £110,000 for exceptional candidates)

VIQU have partnered with an independent engineering SME delivering high-voltage electrical solutions that support the UK’s sustainable energy future. Following successful NERS accreditation, the business is expanding its in-house HV electrical capability and is looking for a Senior Electrical Engineer to act as its senior design authority.

The Senior Electrical Engineer will provide technical leadership, governance and assurance across HV electrical design activities, ensuring outputs are safe, compliant, buildable and delivered in a controlled, auditable way.

This is a senior technical leadership role rather than a day-to-day design production position. You will oversee design checking, approval, compliance, risk management and the continued development of an in-house HV electrical design function.

Key responsibilities:

• Act as the senior technical authority for HV electrical design.
• Review, check and approve designs in line with NERS requirements and industry standards.
• Define and maintain design standards, QA processes and governance procedures.
• Support complex HV schemes, including substations and related infrastructure.
• Work closely with Tier 1 contractors, DNOs, clients and internal project teams.
• Support bids...
