We are the world's trusted infrastructure consulting firm, partnering with clients to solve the world’s most complex challenges and build legacies for future generations.
Job Description
Start here. Grow here. Are you ready to shape the future of water infrastructure? We’re looking for a Principal Electrical Engineer to join our growing Water Solutions team in Bristol, Cardiff, Exeter, or Plymouth. In this role, you’ll play a key part in delivering South West Water's and Wessex Water's £8 billion capital programmes. These projects span from small rural sites to multi-million-pound schemes and cover both water and wastewater (Infrastructure and Non-Infrastructure). The frameworks are long-term, extending through AMP8 and AMP9.
As part of a growing multi-disciplinary team with a long-standing presence in the region, you’ll be joining a group recognised for excellence, having won the IChemE Global Water Award 2023. You’ll have opportunities to develop your technical career not only through involvement in local projects but also by contributing to flagship initiatives across the UK&I and globally. With flexible working from our South West & Wales locations, you’ll collaborate across multi-disciplinary teams to deliver innovative and sustainable solutions.
Here's what you'll do:
- Electrical and ICA Design: Undertake the design and review of electrical and ICA elements in wastewater and water infrastructure / treatment projects, and offer advice, where necessary in a technical expert role.
- Quality: Produce and review client deliverables, make key technical decisions and identify when specialist input from the greater team is required.
- Project Management: Prepare and manage the production of key packages of work using internal systems and operations, and assess design resources within the discipline.
- Specification: Prepare technical specification.
- Collaborate: With client and AECOM counterparts to ensure stakeholder buy in to solutions, also contributing to AECOMs wider technical capability and innovative approach.
- Mentor: Delegate tasks, direct and oversee the work of others and act as a technical mentor to more junior staff.
If you're passionate about innovation and turning bold ideas into reality, AECOM welcomes you. Join our team, where we don't just construct infrastructure but also uplift communities and enhance lives.
