ngin is a specialist search and recruitment partner serving the Power, Energy, Data Center, and Infrastructure sectors. The company focuses on engineering, technical, commercial, and leadership roles to help organizations deliver complex projects and support sustainable growth. The team is dedicated to supporting the people behind critical infrastructure.
Role Description
ngin is working exclusively with a growing engineering contractor to appoint an Electrical Engineer to support the delivery of a major 70MW Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project in Burnley, including a 132kV grid connection.
The business is expanding significantly across the UK and Europe, delivering major projects across power, energy, renewables and mission-critical infrastructure.
With the Burnley project moving further into electrical delivery, they’re now looking to strengthen the team with an Electrical Engineer who can bring strong design capability across HV/LV systems, electrical distribution, protection and control.
You don't necessarily need to have delivered a BESS project before.
If you've built your experience within power generation, substations, T&D, utilities, industrial electrical engineering or another HV/MV environment and want to move further into BESS and renewable energy infrastructure, we'd still like to hear from you.
The Role
You'll be involved across the electrical engineering and design scope, including:
- Developing and reviewing schematics and single-line diagrams
- Detailed design across HV and LV electrical systems
- Control and protection systems
- Equipment specification, selection and procurement
- Preparing and interpreting technical specifications
- Supporting technical and contract documentation
- Monitoring engineering progress against the programme
- Supporting project delivery through to commissioning
What we're looking for?
Ideally, you'll have:
- Around 3+ years' electrical engineering experience
- An Electrical Engineering degree or equivalent relevant technical background
- Electrical design experience within power, energy, renewables or a transferable electrical environment
- Exposure to HV/MV/LV distribution, switchgear, substations, protection or power systems
- The ability to work across both design and project delivery
We're equally interested in people coming from a strong practical electrical background who have progressed into engineering/design and now want to build their career within large-scale energy infrastructure.
Why Consider it?
This isn't simply another electrical design position.
You'll be joining a business with a growing pipeline across the UK and Europe, with the opportunity to build genuine experience in BESS, HV infrastructure and grid-connected energy projects.
Alongside the Burnley project, the wider business is delivering major projects internationally, creating longer-term opportunities beyond a single project.
The package also includes:
- 23 days' annual leave
- Company pension
- Life and disability cover
- Paid maternity and paternity leave
- CPD, educational assistance and Chartership support
- Opportunities to work on European projects
