You’ll be the key link between design, suppliers, and construction teams.
Responsibilities:
- Lead and manage the electrical engineering scope for HV substation projects
- Interpret and validate preliminary designs and concepts provided by system operators or clients
- Translate high-level requirements into detailed designs for procurement and construction
- Coordinate with multiple external suppliers, EPC contractors, and internal teams to ensure alignment and technical compliance
- Review and approve drawings, technical specifications, and supplier documentation
- Ensure designs comply with national grid codes, electrical safety regulations, and industry best practices
- Act as technical authority on HV electrical topics within the project
- Provide input on planning, risk assessments, and technical decisions
- Support testing, commissioning, and handover phases when needed
Requirements:
- Degree in Electrical Engineering or similar field
- Solid number of years of experience working on HV substation projects (design phase focus)
- Solid understanding of electrical system design, protection & control systems, and HV/MV equipment
- Experience coordinating with suppliers and multidisciplinary teams
- Ability to interpret and adjust early-stage grid operator design packages
- Familiarity with relevant electrical standards
- Fluent in English
