Electrical Engineering | MEICA / EICA | Water & Wastewater | LV | MCCs | ICA | Commissioning

Do you enjoy being close to the action, solving technical problems and seeing electrical engineering projects through from design and installation to testing and commissioning?

Looking to work across major UK water infrastructure projects where you'll combine your technical knowledge with hands‑on site delivery?

CHG Electrical is entering an exciting period of growth, with major frameworks secured across AMP8 and AMP
9.

We're looking for a proactive, technically capable Field Electrical Project Engineer to support the delivery of electrical engineering works across our growing portfolio of water and wastewater infrastructure projects.

This isn't simply a design role, and it isn't a traditional Project Manager position.

You'll sit at the heart of engineering delivery, working between the office, project teams and live sites to ensure electrical systems are installed, tested and commissioned safely, correctly and to specification.

Founded in Sheffield in 2004, CHG Electrical has more than two decades of engineering heritage.

Built on strong electrical engineering foundations, the business has evolved into a multidisciplinary engineering partner delivering complex projects across water utilities, rail, steel and manufacturing.

Today, our capabilities span MEICA, EICAT, civil engineering, control-panel design and manufacture, automation, software and digital transformation. We support projects from initial design through installation and commissioning to long‑term maintenance.

With major frameworks secured across AMP8 and AMP9, we're now entering a significant period of project delivery and technical growth.

You'll work closely with Project Managers, Engineers, subcontractors, site teams and clients to support electrical delivery across water and wastewater infrastructure projects.

It's a varied role that takes you across the full engineering lifecycle.

You'll review electrical designs and specifications, prepare and review RAMS, coordinate installation activities, support procurement and work alongside site teams to resolve technical issues.

You'll then remain involved through testing, fault finding, commissioning and successful project handover.

One day you might be reviewing drawings or coordinating equipment requirements in Sheffield.

The next, you could be on a live water site working with subcontractors to resolve an installation or commissioning issue.

If you like seeing engineering make it off the drawing and into the real world, you'll feel at home here.
