Join the MEI Engineering Team

This is a hands-on, technically varied role working across marine and industrial projects, where you will be responsible for delivering high-quality electrical installations as well as diagnosing and resolving complex electrical faults across a wide range of systems, including motors, drives, and control systems.
Our work spans small workboats, commercial vessels, offshore assets, BESS sites and industrial facilities across the UK and internationally.

The Role
You will be responsible for carrying out electrical installation, maintenance, fault finding, and repair work across a variety of marine and industrial environments. This role requires a balance of hands-on installation capability and strong diagnostic skills, working both in the workshop and on client sites, supporting projects from initial installation through to commissioning and troubleshooting.
Key Responsibilities
- Carry out electrical installation, maintenance, and repair work on marine and industrial systems.
- Install wiring systems, control panels, distribution boards, motors, and associated electrical equipment.
- Carry out advanced fault finding and diagnostics across electrical systems.
- Work with motors, motor control systems, drives (VSDs/inverters), and control systems.
- Read and interpret electrical drawings, schematics, and technical documentation.
- Carry out testing, inspection, and commissioning of electrical systems.
- Support project engineers and installation teams to ensure high-quality delivery.
- Undertake onsite installation and service work at UK and international project locations when required.
