Job description

We are now looking to fill this permanent position to be based at our Head Office in Chippenham.

HUBER Technology is an “Investors in People” Gold company which specialises in environmental engineering throughout the world, and with a UK operation based in Chippenham focused on delivering wastewater treatment solutions for the UK water industry.

Reporting to the Engineering Manager, we are looking for a Junior Electrical Designer to join our small, supportive team working on a range of wastewater treatment projects. In this role, you will assist with the design of both bespoke and standard control panels, as well as electrical installation drawings and schematics.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone at the beginning of their electrical design career who is eager to learn and grow within a collaborative engineering environment. You will work closely with senior team members, particularly the Lead Electrical Design Engineer, gaining hands-on experience and building a strong foundation in low-voltage motor control systems.

What you will do: (With the support from the Lead Electrical Design Engineer)

• Assist in creating 2D electrical schematics, layout drawings, and wiring diagrams using CAD software such as AutoCAD Electrical.
• Help ensure designs meet safety, compliance, and performance requirements under guidance from senior engineers.
• Collaborate with the wider engineering and production teams to support the integration of control systems into equipment and installations.
• Support the panel build process by providing documentation and clarifying design intent to the assembly team.
• Help document design changes and participate in design reviews to learn best practices and develop your skills.
• Assist during testing, FAT (Factory Acceptance Testing), and SAT (Site Acceptance Testing) stages as needed.

What you’ll bring:

• A formal qualification in Electrical or Engineering-related discipline (e.g., HNC/HND or equivalent).
• A practical, hands-on approach to problem-solving and strong attention to detail
• Drive to learn and develop skills in AutoCAD Electrical, and other internal systems such as ERP (training provided), as well as developing your technical knowledge in a real-world engineering environment.
• A strong sense of responsibility and pride in your work.
• Enthusiasm for continuous improvement and professional growth.
• Eagerness to become familiar with the company’s ERP system.

This role is ideal for someone who is naturally curious, detail-focused, and enthusiastic about becoming a specialist in electrical design. You’ll have the chance to develop core design skills, contribute to meaningful engineering projects, and build your confidence in a structured and encouraging setting.

If you’re motivated, eager to learn, and enjoy solving technical problems as part of a team, we’d love to hear from you.

We offer an interesting role that provides ownership, a competitive salary and benefits package as well as sound development opportunities in an organisation that has strong core values and where people matter to help to protect and enhance the environment.
