Electrical Project Manager
Transmission & Distribution
North East
I'm working with an established electrical engineering business that is looking to strengthen its project team with experienced Project Managers from a Transmission & Distribution background.
Substation build experience is essential. You'll need a proven track record of delivering HV/EHV substation projects, with a good understanding of the technical, commercial and construction aspects involved.
The role could suit either a Technical Project Manager or Electrical Project Manager, depending on your background.
The role will involve:
Managing HV/EHV substation projects from mobilisation through to completion
Taking responsibility for programme, budget, resources and delivery
Managing site teams, subcontractors and suppliers
Coordinating electrical, civil, engineering and commissioning activities
Reviewing designs, drawings, specifications and technical documentation
Managing project risks, change and commercial issues
Working closely with clients, DNOs, consultants and other stakeholders
Ensuring projects are delivered safely, on time and to specification
Supporting procurement and subcontractor management
Providing technical support and resolving issues throughout delivery
Managing project reporting and progress updates
Essential experience:
Strong background in Transmission & Distribution
Proven experience delivering substation construction/build projects
Experience across HV/EHV electrical infrastructure
Strong understanding of substation construction and electrical installation
Experience managing subcontractors and multidisciplinary teams
Strong programme, budget and project management experience
Comfortable working with clients and senior stakeholders
Understanding of H&S, quality and compliance requirements within power infrastructure
Experience working across 132kV and above would be particularly relevant, as would experience with National Grid, DNOs, ICPs or major electrical contractors.
This would suit someone who has progressed through an electrical/site/project engineering background and is now managing the full delivery of substation projects.
If you have genuine substation build experience and are open to a new opportunity, get in touch for more information.
