Want to work on a state of the art R&D facility in Surrey with a globally recognised Engineering Contractor? We have a fantastic opportunity for an Electrical Project Engineer to join the team delivering a state of the art Research facility and headquarters in Surrey. The project is in early stages of pre-construction and will be running until 2027. They have a high-functioning project team who have been moved across from another scheme; however, due to the size and value of the project, they are looking to bolster the team with an Electrical Project Engineer / Snr Project Engineer.

The value of the MEP package on the project is worth circa £55 Million and will be broken down into 3 sections. The program will run until 2027 with a 9-month pre-construction period and the potential to work on the next phase following this in 2027.

As an Electrical Project Engineer, you will be responsible for:

• Tender review and validation
• Design review liaising with consultants, client, and main contractor
• Procurement of major plant and subcontractors
• Programming of works using MS Project / Asta
• Leading the project from a commercial aspect, overseeing profitability, and reporting financially to the contracts manager
• Chairing meetings internally and externally
• Management of commissioning stages and project hand-over to the client

What we are looking for:

The candidate will have experience managing large electrical packages in excess of £5 million and have demonstrated the ability to deliver contracts on time and to the client's satisfaction. An HNC or a degree qualification is desired but not essential.

You will also ideally have experience working on shell and core / infrastructure packages on commercial-scale projects. Working in the Health or R&D sector would be an advantage but not essential.
