Deep technical knowledge of HV/LV systems, standby power, UPS architecture, and resilient electrical design (Tier III/IV standards)
Fluent in BS 7671, IET guidance, CDM regulations, and the unique compliance demands of data centre environments
Proven ability to manage fast-track programmes with overlapping trades and compressed timelines
Strong commercial acumen-you understand P&L, cost control, and what drives project profitability
Relevant qualifications + CSCS/ECS/SSSTS as standardWhat Takes You to the Next Level:

HNC/HND or Degree in Electrical Engineering
SMSTS, IOSH Managing Safely, or equivalent senior safety qualifications
Experience with Uptime Institute standards (Tier III/IV certification processes)
