Project Manager – HV/LV Electrical Projects
Derby | Up to £60,000 + Company Car + Benefits
NEOS Engineering Recruitment are working with a well-established and growing electrical engineering business that is looking to appoint a Project Manager to join their Derby-based team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with electrical project management experience to join a company delivering critical infrastructure projects across the UK, working with some of the country's most recognised organisations.
The successful candidate will initially focus on planning, managing and delivering projects, before progressing into commercial responsibilities such as quotations and estimating as they develop within the business. Whilst HV experience is advantageous, it is not essential, as full support and mentoring will be provided by an experienced team.
The Role
As Project Manager, you'll take ownership of multiple electrical projects from initial planning through to completion, ensuring works are delivered safely, on time and within budget. You'll coordinate engineers, subcontractors and suppliers whilst maintaining excellent communication with clients throughout the lifecycle of each project.
Projects typically include:
- HV/LV substation installations
- High Voltage maintenance works
- Low Voltage electrical installations
- Electrical infrastructure upgrades
- Industrial and commercial electrical projects
- Renewable energy installations
