Electrical Design Engineer

Electrical Design Engineer - Critical Infrastructure

Location: Manchester (Hybrid working available)
Sector: Data Centres | Healthcare | Secure Facilities
Salary: Up to 55,000 + Hybrid + Progression

Looking to step into more technical projects without the usual catch-22 of "you need the experience to get the experience"?

This M&E contractor has been delivering complex, high-integrity projects for over two decades - from secure healthcare facilities to Tier 3 & 4 data centres. With long-term frameworks in place and a growing order book, they're looking to expand their electrical design team.

You don't need to come from a data centre or healthcare background. If you've got the core electrical design skills and the drive to level up technically, they'll give you the support and exposure to get there.

• Designing electrical systems from concept through to delivery.
• Working with clients, consultants, and internal teams to deliver coordinated solutions.
• Using tools like Amtech, AutoCAD, and Revit to produce designs and calculations.
• Attending design meetings and site visits to ensure designs match real-world conditions.
• Contributing to design reviews and supporting junior engineers where needed.

• Have experience in electrical building services design (consultancy or contractor).
• Are familiar with industry standards like BS7671 and CIBSE guidelines.
• Want to step into more complex projects without being thrown in the deep end.
• Are detail-focused, collaborative, and able to take ownership of your work.

• Projects you can take pride in - no cookie-cutter designs here.
• Progression into Senior and Lead roles as the team grows.
• Hybrid working and flexibility built around trust, not micromanagement.
• A stable contractor with long-term clients and a strong technical culture.
• Salary up to 55k depending on experience, with regular pay reviews.

You'll be joining a team that values doing things properly - and backs its engineers to grow.
