We are looking for a Senior Energy Systems Engineer to take technical ownership of grid-connected energy storage systems across the UK & Ireland. This is a hands-on, senior technical role focused on commissioning support, system performance, fault diagnosis, and lifecycle reliability rather than people management. You'll work closely with service, operations, and commercial teams, acting as a trusted technical advisor and ensuring energy storage assets are safe, compliant, and performing as intended.

• Provide advanced technical support for energy storage and power systems
• Support commissioning, handover, troubleshooting, and performance optimisation
• Act as a technical escalation point for complex electrical and system issues
• Ensure compliance with grid, safety, and regulatory requirements
• Support service partners and internal field engineers
• Contribute to technical documentation, standards, and best practice

• Background in electrical engineering, power systems, or energy technologies
• Experience with grid-connected assets (renewables, power generation, BESS, CHP, EV infrastructure, or similar)
• Comfortable working in site-based, operational environments
• Strong problem-solving and stakeholder communication skills
• Looking for technical depth and ownership without a heavy management remit

• Competitive salary and benefits package
• A clearly defined step-up pathway into technical management for those applicants who are ready to broaden their scope and influence
• Ongoing support, mentoring, and professional development
• Exposure to large-scale, complex energy infrastructure projects
• Hybrid working with meaningful site and project involvement
• Long-term progression into senior technical or engineering leadership roles
