Senior Switchgear Design Engineer - West Sussex - up to £65,000 + Benefits - REF 2022
I am currently recruiting a Senior Switchgear Design Engineer to work for a leading engineering organisation based in West Sussex. Salary up to £65,000 + Benefits.
The organisation has a fantastic heritage having been established for over 30 years and they now employ close to 50 people, with a turnover heading towards £10 million. They are deemed experts at what they do and have clients situated throughout the whole of the UK.
To support the business with its expansion plans and in order for them to continue offering a first-class service on the projects they have now and forecast, they have the need to appoint a Senior Electrical Design Engineer on a permanent basis.
In this role as a Senior Switchgear Design Engineer, you will be working in a multi-disciplined team of 9 engineers and you will be responsible for full life cycle design from inception to completion. This may include drawing up concepts to support the sales team with tenders. Once a project is won, you will interpret the customer requirements, then design the electrical circuits that fulfil what they need, create the wiring diagrams for manufacturing, deal with the BOM's (Bill of Materials) and forward across any information to purchasing who will procure the necessary components and equipment based on your designs. There will be an opportunity to get involved in the Mechanical Design of enclosures for the products should this appeal, but if not, you will be liaising with other engineers who can carry out this task for your projects.
