Job Description & How to Apply Below
Location:
Leeds – Hybrid
Salary: £45,000+ DOE + Flexitime + Overtime + Retention Bonus + Permanent Benefits
Want to build a career designing the equipment at the heart of the UK's electrical infrastructure?
An opportunity has opened with a global electrical manufacturer specialising in MV/HV switch gear, protection & power distribution equipment, joining an established engineering team in Leeds.
This isn't a role where you'll be expected to arrive knowing every product inside out. We're looking for engineers with a strong electrical foundation who want to develop specialist knowledge within switch gear design & application engineering.
You'll work on the technical development of MV power distribution projects, taking customer requirements & translating them into practical engineered solutions across switch gear, protection & control systems, substations & associated distribution equipment.
The Role
Develop technical designs & application solutions for MV/HV power distribution equipment
Produce & review single-line diagrams, electrical schematics, equipment configurations & technical documentation
Work with MV switch gear, circuit breakers, protection relays, CT/VT arrangements & control systems
Interpret customer specifications & translate requirements into engineered solutions
Support tendering & commercial teams with technical input during bid stages
Provide engineering support throughout project delivery, manufacturing & testing
Work closely with customers, project engineers, manufacturing & wider engineering teams
Ensure designs meet relevant technical standards, specifications & project requirements
Develop specialist product knowledge with structured support from experienced engineers
Who We're Looking For
We're open to engineers coming from several different routes, including:
Electrical Design / Application Engineering
Switchgear or switchboard design
MV/HV engineering
Protection & Control
Electrical Project Engineering
Commissioning / Testing
Tendering / Proposals Engineering
Electrical engineering graduates with relevant power systems knowledge
Previous switch gear experience would be highly beneficial, but isn't essential for every applicant.
For a graduate or early-career Electrical Engineer, this is an opportunity to move into a specialist design environment & develop hands-on knowledge of MV switch gear, protection, control & power distribution systems with the backing of a major global manufacturer.
For an experienced engineer, it offers the opportunity to move away from predominantly site-based work & apply your technical knowledge within a more design, product & project-focused position.
