Full job description

Base Location: For this role, we require successful applicants to be based from one of our Scottish locations and you'll be expected to spend 50% of your working week in the office – Aberdeen, Glasgow, Inverness or Perth

Salary: Up to £72,000 + car /car allowance + performance-related bonus+ a range of benefits to support your finances, wellbeing and family.

Working Pattern: Permanent | Full Time | Flexible First options available

The role

SSEN Transmission have exciting opportunities for varying Protection & Control Project Engineering roles. Join our multi-disciplined engineering team to help develop and deliver an expanding project portfolio to meet our Net Zero targets.

While the responsibilities are primarily aimed at experienced design engineers, we also welcome applications from those looking to progress their careers as Assistant Protection & Control Project Engineers. We may be able to offer a role suited to engineers with experience working within a client or contracting organisation in the UK electricity supply industry, who are keen to expand their skills into the Protection & Control specialism.

You will

Provide protection and control engineering support across multiple projects, by assessing and defining the technical scope requirements during development phases, before evaluating third-party detailed designs as the project moves into delivery, predominantly panel and scheme designs.

Configure protection and control equipment according to the application and scheme requirement, including the calculation and preparation of protection settings. Ideally, candidates will be experienced in both scheme design and setting preparation; however, we also welcome applications from individuals with expertise in either area.

Assess and adjudicate third-party contractor factory acceptance tests on protection and control equipment for new build and retrofit applications.

Support multi-disciplinary project teams in identifying and managing engineering risks and identifying opportunities for the project to excel.

Take responsibility for delivering required outputs to programme and participate in the development of our increasing digital design capabilities and scheme standardisation works.

You have

A minimum of HND level qualification in Electrical Engineering, or a minimum of HNC level qualification in Electrical and/or Electronic Engineering for an Assistant Engineer position.

Demonstrable experience and skills in transmission protection and control application specification, panel and scheme design, as well as the skills to calculate protection settings for implementation. We would like our Assistant Engineers to understand the UK electricity power system, the components within, and ideally how these would be protected.

The ability to demonstrate engineering diligence and the confidence to technically assess problems and critically assess a range of solutions.

Strong communication skills, with the ability to convey complex technical concepts clearly and concisely to support informed decision-making by project and technical leaders.

Preferably hold, or be working towards an appropriate Incorporated or Chartered Engineer status.
