Strong problem-solving and analytical skills.
Full UK driving licence.
Willingness to travel and work away from home when project requirements dictate.

Desirable

Previous experience in protection testing, commissioning, or protection system design.
Familiarity with IEC 61850 communications and substation automation systems.
Experience within transmission, distribution, renewable energy, or industrial power sectors.
Knowledge of National Grid and DNO protection philosophies and standards

Working Pattern

Primarily based at the company test facility.
Standard Monday to Friday working week.
Occasional travel and working away from home (Monday to Friday) required to support commissioning and project activities.

What We Offer

Competitive salary depending on experience.
Company benefits package.
Paid overtime opportunities during project deadlines and peak workload periods.
