HV Test Engineer

06th July, 2026

High Voltage Field Test Technician — UK (Remote + Site Travel)
Are you a High Voltage testing specialist who enjoys being out on client sites as much as getting the technical analysis right? This is a chance to work at the sharp end of HV and EHV cable system commissioning, with the flexibility of a home base between site visits.
We're hiring a High Voltage Field Test Technician to carry out commissioning and maintenance testing on High Voltage (HV) and Extra High Voltage (EHV) AC and DC cable systems, in line with industry and international testing standards.
What you'll be doing

• Commissioning and maintenance testing on HV and EHV AC and DC cable systems, to industry and international standards
• Field testing and diagnosis of HV cable systems on client sites
• Developing and implementing new HV testing and diagnostic techniques
• Technical analysis of Partial Discharge (PD) data for OFFLINE commissioning and maintenance testing
• Technical analysis of PD data for ONLINE diagnosis using specialist analysis tools
• Compiling technical test reports, including recommendations drawn from your analysis

How the role works
This is a UK-based role with a mix of on-site and remote working. You'll travel to client sites across the UK (with some European travel possible), and spend your remaining time working from home — writing up test reports and planning upcoming site visits alongside your colleagues.
What we're looking for

• Ideally an Electrical Engineering Diploma, Degree, or similar qualification
• A solid understanding of High Voltage testing
• A full driving licence
• Willingness and ability to travel to sites

If HV cable testing is your field and you like the balance of hands-on site work with the freedom of a remote base, we'd like to hear from you.
