This is a hands-on, end-to-end design role where you will be involved from early concept through to completion. You will collaborate closely with project managers, estimators, and installation teams, playing a central role in delivering high-quality electrical solutions across a range of commercial and industrial schemes.

  • Compiling technical submissions, design specifications, and supporting documentation
  • Providing technical guidance and support to installation and commissioning teams on site
  • Representing the business at design coordination meetings and client-facing discussions

What We Are Looking For

  • A proven track record as an Electrical Designer or Design Engineer within commercial building services
  • Strong knowledge of electrical design standards and building services systems
  • Confident use of AutoCAD and electrical design software including Amtech and Relux/Dialux
  • A solid understanding of lighting design principles and energy efficiency standards
  • The ability to read and interpret architectural and mechanical drawings
  • A natural communicator who works well with others and can juggle multiple projects simultaneously

Qualifications

  • HNC/HND or Degree in Electrical or Building Services Engineering (or equivalent)
  • City & Guilds 18th Edition (BS 7671) – desirable
  • Additional design or CAD qualifications would be advantageous

Why Apply?

  • A permanent opportunity with a established contractor
  • End-to-end project involvement from initial concept through to completion
  • A varied portfolio spanning commercial and industrial schemes- no two projects the same
  • Conveniently located London office near Liverpool Street
