HV Tendering and Design Engineer

£60,000 to £80,000 plus car allowance and strong benefits Remote, with occasional travel to HQ in Scotland and other UK offices Own the design, from tender to construction You know how to get a 33kV design right. Now imagine owning it from the first tender submission to the final construction pack, on renewables projects that connect clean power to the grid.

This is a lead design role, not a seat at the back of the drawing office. You'll shape the substations, the protection schemes and the cable routes, and you'll see them built. Why this role Renewables connections are moving fast.
