Job Description

Ready to lead, innovate and make a real impact?
We're recruiting a Lead Electrical Engineer for a growing engineering manufacturer where you'll take ownership of electrical design, mentor a team of engineers and drive the development of specialist power systems.
What you'll be doing:

  • Leading electrical design projects from concept through to manufacture
  • Managing and mentoring a team of engineers
  • Reviewing schematics, calculations and technical documentation
  • Driving innovation, standardisation and continuous improvement
  • Working closely with mechanical, controls and manufacturing teams

What we're looking for:

  • Strong background in electrical design and power systems
  • Experience leading projects or engineering teams
  • Knowledge of 3-phase power, protection systems and electrical standards
  • Experience with EPLAN, AutoCAD Electrical or similar CAD packages
  • Degree qualified in Electrical Engineering or related discipline

This is a fantastic opportunity for a Senior Electrical Engineer looking to step up, or an existing Lead Engineer seeking a new challenge within a specialist engineering environment.
