Project Engineer

10 Days Old

Our client is looking for a Project Engineer to start ASAP in Somerset. This is a 10 month project paying between £560 and £730 per day, depending on experience. The working week is Monday to Friday from 07:30hrs to 17:00hrs. You will be based on site.
Project Details and Duration:
* The project is a substation next to a much larger project run by a company called Gravity, which includes a large data centre and a battery EV battery factory.
* The substation is a 400/132 KV substation.
* The team has just mobilized the site.
* Work currently involves getting the 'danties' in place for overhead lighting connections, followed by civils work.
* The project is due to run until 2029.
* The contract will hopefully start in March and will run until the end of December of this year.
* The speaker suggested starting with a six-month contract with the possibility of an extension. The company is trying to recruit for a permanent position.
Role and Responsibilities:
* The role is for a Power Project Engineer.
* The work currently is heavy civil work, and the role is "a little bit of everything".
* Once the work begins, it will be a typical Project Engineer role.
* The ideal candidate should be able to coordinate across the project, look at two or three work packages, and see the bigger picture—almost thinking like an assistant Project Manager.
* The need for this extra person is due to gaps in the team, specifically a struggle to find candidates with the necessary qualifications and experience.
Required Experience and Qualifications:
* Must have experience in working on substations.
* Specific desired qualifications are:
* Earthing Control Person (ECP).
* Earthing Application Person (EAP).
* National Safety Instruction (NSI).
* LVAP.
* The candidate does not need to have worked directly for National Grid, but they need to have worked on National Grid projects and built up those qualifications.
