APPLY Job Description

Principal Electrical Engineer

Location: Croydon or London
Salary: Competitive, depending on experience
Job Type: Full-time

About the Company
We are an established building services and engineering consultancy with a strong reputation across London and the South of England.
The business works across a diverse range of sectors, including healthcare, education, commercial, residential, leisure and industrial projects. Its work covers electrical, mechanical and public health engineering, alongside energy, sustainability and low-carbon design.

The company has built a stable team with excellent staff retention, with engineers able to develop their careers over the long term. The current Managing Director is a good example of this progression, having joined the business as an engineer before moving into senior leadership.

The Role
We are looking for an experienced Principal Electrical Engineer to take a leading technical role within the business.

This is an opportunity for a senior engineer who is confident taking ownership of projects, managing client relationships and providing technical direction to the wider team.

You will be involved in:

• Leading the electrical design and delivery of projects from concept through to completion.
• Taking overall technical responsibility for electrical engineering elements of projects.
• Managing and coordinating electrical design teams and working closely with other disciplines.
• Developing and reviewing calculations, specifications, drawings and technical documentation.
• Providing technical guidance and mentoring to intermediate and junior engineers.
• Liaising directly with clients, contractors, architects and other project stakeholders.
• Attending design meetings, site visits and project reviews.
• Reviewing designs to ensure they meet relevant standards, regulations and client requirements.
• Supporting project planning, resourcing and delivery.
• Contributing to the continued development of the electrical engineering team and wider business.
• Identifying opportunities to improve technical standards, processes and project delivery.

About You
We are looking for an established senior electrical engineer who is ready to operate at Principal level or an experienced Principal Engineer looking for their next opportunity.

You will ideally have:

• Significant professional experience in electrical building services engineering.
• Strong consultancy experience and a proven track record of delivering projects.
• Extensive knowledge of electrical building services design and relevant UK standards.
• Experience taking technical ownership of projects.
• Strong client-facing and communication skills.
• Experience mentoring and developing junior and intermediate engineers.
• Good commercial awareness and an understanding of project delivery.
• Strong AutoCAD skills; Revit/BIM experience would be advantageous.
• The ability to manage multiple projects and priorities effectively.
• A proactive approach and the confidence to make technical decisions and provide direction.

What's on Offer
This is an opportunity to join an established consultancy with a long-standing and experienced team, where people have developed their careers over many years.

The business offers Principal-level engineers the opportunity to have genuine influence over projects, clients and the development of the wider engineering team, rather than simply operating as a technical resource.

With senior leadership having progressed from engineering positions within the business, there is a clear example of the long-term career progression and stability available.

If you're an experienced Electrical Engineer looking for a Principal-level position where you can combine technical leadership, project ownership and client interaction, we'd like to hear from you.
