£70,000-£80,000 + Overtime + Door-to-Door Pay + Vehicle + Excellent Benefits
Home Based / UK Wide
Realistic total package £120,000+
If you're an experienced HV Commissioning Engineer and don't mind spending time away from home, this is a package worth looking at.
We're recruiting for a growing specialist HV engineering business delivering major power infrastructure projects across the UK, with a particularly strong pipeline within renewable energy and data centre environments.
You'll be home based and travel directly to project sites across the UK. Staying away during the week will be a regular part of the job.
In return, the earning potential is excellent.
The package
Basic salary circa £80,000
Paid door-to-door, including travel between your hotel and site
Regular overtime opportunities, including double-time payments
Additional payment simply for staying away
Generous subsistence allowance
Company van and fuel card
Private healthcare
Dental cover
Excellent wider benefits package
Realistic overall package worth £100,000+
The job
You'll carry out testing and commissioning of HV electrical infrastructure from 11kV through to 132kV.
Projects include major grid connections, substations and complex power infrastructure, with much of the current workload supporting renewable energy and data centre developments.
You'll be involved in:
Primary and secondary testing
Protection relay testing and configuration
Secondary injection testing
Transformers and switchgear
CTs and VTs
SCADA and control systems
G99/G59 testing
Fault finding and diagnostics
Commissioning documentation and reports
Energisation and handover
About you
We're looking for an experienced HV commissioning professional rather than somebody whose experience is predominantly installation or maintenance.
You'll ideally have:
Strong hands-on HV commissioning experience
Experience across 11kV, 33kV and ideally higher voltages
Protection and secondary injection experience
Experience with equipment such as Omicron and/or Megger
DNO, ICP, IDNO or private HV network experience
Ability to read schematics, SLDs and protection drawings
SAP status or good experience working under an SAP
You don't necessarily need to have commissioned at 132kV already if you've got strong HV commissioning experience and the capability to progress.
You can live anywhere in the UK.
What you must be comfortable with is travelling nationwide and regularly staying away Monday to Friday.
For somebody who enjoys site work, wants technically interesting HV projects and is happy travelling, the combination of basic salary, overtime, paid travel and stay-away payments makes this a seriously strong permanent package.
