Are you an experienced Electrical Engineer within the water sector looking to take on greater technical responsibility while continuing to develop your career? 
I am currently recruiting on behalf of a major infrastructure organisation delivering a significant programme of water and wastewater projects across the East of England. 
This organisation is looking for a Senior Electrical Engineer who can provide technical direction across electrical design, support projects throughout design and construction, and help develop engineers within the wider team. 
The role would suit someone who enjoys remaining technically involved while taking greater responsibility for design quality, engineering standards and supporting less experienced members of the electrical team. 
The Role 
As Senior Electrical Engineer, you will take a lead role across the electrical engineering elements of a range of capital infrastructure projects. 
You will work alongside multidisciplinary engineering, project management, construction and supply chain teams, helping ensure electrical designs are technically robust, practical to construct and delivered in line with programme, quality and safety requirements. 
Your responsibilities will include: 
·Reviewing and checking electrical design deliverables produced by internal engineering teams and the wider supply chain. 
·Reviewing electrical specifications, schedules, datasheets, drawings and 3D models. 
·Ensuring electrical designs comply with relevant legislation, standards, codes of practice and project requirements. 
·Working closely with Principal Engineers, Design Managers and Project Design Managers to understand upcoming project milestones and design review requirements. 
·Providing technical guidance and support to Electrical Engineers and other members of the multidisciplinary design team. 
·Reviewing construction site design queries and change requests, ensuring technically accurate responses are provided. 
·Supporting CDM and commissioning strategy meetings throughout project delivery. 
·Working with design and engineering teams to identify opportunities for technical improvements. 
·Managing design quality through the engineering review and assurance process. 
·Supporting other discipline leads and engineers to deliver their engineering outputs to programme and quality requirements. 
·Liaising with project teams, construction teams and other engineering disciplines regarding electrical design requirements. 
·Coaching and mentoring junior and less experienced Electrical Engineers. 
·Promoting sustainable and low-carbon electrical design solutions. 
·Supporting the use of off-site manufacture, modular construction and repeatable design solutions. 
·Helping drive continuous improvement across electrical engineering standards and processes. 
What They're Looking For 
This organisation is particularly interested in speaking with Electrical Engineers who already have experience delivering projects within the water or wastewater industry and are ready to take the next step in their career. 
Ideally, you will have:

·Previous experience delivering electrical engineering and design within the water sector. 
·Experience working on water treatment, wastewater treatment, pumping stations or associated water infrastructure. 
·Experience working on water-sector capital delivery projects. 
·A strong understanding of relevant electrical regulations, engineering standards and codes of practice. 
·Experience reviewing electrical specifications, drawings, schedules and technical documentation. 
·The confidence to review and challenge engineering designs where required. 
·Experience supporting, coaching or mentoring less experienced engineers. 
·Strong stakeholder management and communication skills. 
·The ability to work effectively across multidisciplinary engineering and project teams. 
·Chartered Engineer status, or be working towards professional chartership. 
Experience working within a multidisciplinary Design & Build environment would also be beneficial.
