HV Project Engineer (400kV/132kV)

Sustainable Talent is working with a Tier 1 contractor on an exciting Substation project in the southwest of England (Bridgewater):

Project Details and Duration

* The project is a substation next to a much larger project run by another company, which includes a large data centre and an EV battery factory.

* The substation is a 400/132 KV substation.

* The team has just mobilized the site.

* Work currently involves getting the 'danties' in place for overhead lighting connections, followed by civils work.

* This is a six-month contract with the possibility of an extension.

Role and Responsibilities

* The work currently is heavy civil work, and the role is "a little bit of everything".

* Once the work begins, it will be a typical Project Engineer role.

* The ideal candidate should be able to coordinate across the project, look at two or three work packages, and see the bigger picture—almost thinking like an assistant project manager.

* The ideal candidate may have been a Senior Project Engineer in the past.

Required Experience and Qualifications

* Specific required qualifications are:

* Earthing Control Person (ECP).

* Earthing Application Person (EAP).

* LVAP.

* The candidate does not need to have worked directly for Grid, but they need to have worked on Grid projects and built up those qualifications.

Working Conditions

* The working week is 45 hours, predominantly Monday to Friday.

* There are no planned evenings or weekends.

* The general start and finish times are 7:30 to 5:00.

* The role is site-based.

Please let me know asap if you would like to be considered for this role.

If the role isn't of interest to you, but you know someone who would be a good fit, please remember that we offer a fantastic referral scheme for successful candidates.

Many thanks and speak soon
