Senior Electrical Engineer

Job Description

Senior Electrical Engineer \n\nLondon \n\nSalary - £50k-£65k area\n\nAn award-winning environmental engineering consultancy based in London is looking to appoint a Senior Electrical Engineer to join their team - someone with a genuine passion for forward-thinking electrical design and the ambition to work on projects that most engineers simply never get near.\n\nThis is not a practice that churns through repetitive work. The firm has built a strong reputation across cultural, heritage, education, and public sector projects, with a portfolio that includes theatres, listed buildings, arts centres, and landmark civic schemes across London and beyond. Work comes largely through long-standing relationships with architects, developers, and project managers who trust the practice to deliver something thoughtful and technically excellent - not just compliant.\n\nTheir engineers are multidisciplinary by design.

Rather than siloing people into narrow disciplines, the team receives direct training across all aspects of environmental design, giving individuals real breadth of exposure alongside genuine depth in their specialism.\n\nThe Role\n\nThis position is suited to a Senior Electrical Engineer who is motivated by the work itself - someone who is energised by technically complex, bespoke projects and who sees emerging technologies as an opportunity rather than a footnote. The successful candidate will take ownership of electrical design across a varied portfolio of schemes, working closely with the wider engineering and sustainability team.\n\nKey areas of focus will include:\n\nElectrical building services design across cultural, heritage, education, and public sector projects\nBattery storage systems, photovoltaics, and low-carbon electrical technologies\nDesign delivery from early concept through to technical completion and site inspection\nEngaging directly with architects, clients, and project teams as a trusted technical point of contact\nContributing to the practice's wider sustainability and environmental design approachAbout You\n\nAround 5 years' experience in electrical building services design within a consultancy environment\nA genuine interest in emerging electrical technologies - particularly batteries, photovoltaics, and future-focused systems\nDrawn to complex, technically interesting projects - theatres, listed buildings, cultural venues - rather than high-volume repetitive work\nThe ability to work independently and take considered ownership of design delivery\nAttitude and curiosity are as important here as technical experience - this is a practice that hires for mindset as much as skillset\nExperience in heritage or conservation projects is a plus, though not essentialThe Business\n\nAward-winning environmental engineering consultancy with offices in London and Bristol\nPortfolio spanning cultural, heritage, education, conservation, and residential sectors\nMultidisciplinary team structure - engineers trained across all aspects of environmental design\nRecognised as a top 50 employer in Building magazine's Good Employer Guide\nCompetitive salary with annual performance bonus\nBUPA health cover, life insurance, and critical illness cover\n4-5% pension match\nCycle to work scheme, on-site showers and storage\nA collaborative, creative working environment - central London offices with good transport linksThis is the kind of role that suits an engineer who wants their work to mean something - where the next project might be a West End theatre, a Grade I listed institution, or an innovative new cultural space, and where the technical challenge is always real.\n\nCalibre Search promote equality in the workplace and we welcome applications from all suitably skilled or qualified candidates regardless of their sex, race, disability, religion/beliefs, sexual orientation or age.
