Do you want to be part of a company who do not work on fossil fuel projects? Can you add value to our growing engineering team? Are you interested in working in an Electrical Design Team on a variety of projects, across Transportation (Rail & Highways), Water & Wastewater, Electrical Networks, Green Energy, District Heating and Offshore Wind? Then this is the place to apply your knowledge and curiosity to enable a better tomorrow.

Create Solutions that will enable a better tomorrow
To support our UK Engineering team, we are looking for a Graduate Engineer (Electrical) to join our team. Working on exciting infrastructure projects, you'll also be supported by our engineers on your on-going professional development (Chartership) with a tailored plan to achieve your career aspirations. 

Your key responsibilities will be: 

  • Producing engineering designs and details in accordance with project requirements
  • Preparing calculations, undertaking local and global structural modelling, writing reports and checking drawings
  • Checking design calculations and drawings done by other engineers
  • With the support of your project manager, plan and prioritise your workload, reporting back on progress against a project budget and programme
  • Being responsible for delivering your own work to a high technical standard, ensuring accuracy through a diligent and conscientious approach to self-checking
  • Attending site visits or client meetings as required

 
Your skills. Our team. Together we design the future.
The first step to success in this role is that you are eager to collaborate with the people around you, whether they are colleagues, partners, or customers. Developing ties with others is something you do by acting respectfully and delivering on your promises. And you never get set in your ways but keep exploring new insights and ways to improve.

On top of that, you’ll have: 

  • Be studying to obtain a bachelor's or master's degree either in Electrical Engineering (BEng, BSc, Meng, MSc) and aspire to become a Chartered Engineer
  • Ideally have some experience of working in an engineering environment (such as a year in industry or summer placements)
  • Be able to demonstrate a deep understanding and motivation for engineering and a personal commitment to technical excellence
  • Have the ability and desire to work in a diverse and multi-disciplinary team
  • Be able to demonstrate good communication skills and teamwork
