ERSG are working with a leading engineering and construction specialist delivering complex, high-value projects across sectors such as pharmaceuticals, industrial, data, and commercial.

We're looking for an Electrical Project Engineer who wants more than just a desk-based role - someone who enjoys being fully involved from design review through to installation, commissioning, and handover.

If you thrive in fast-paced environments and want to be part of projects that push technical boundaries, this is an opportunity to accelerate your career.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Supporting the full lifecycle delivery of electrical packages on major construction projects
  • Reviewing drawings, specifications, and technical documentation to ensure accuracy and buildability
  • Managing RFIs, technical submittals, and engineering trackers
  • Coordinating closely with subcontractors, suppliers, and multidisciplinary teams
  • Identifying design risks, discrepancies, and scope gaps early
  • Monitoring site works and ensuring installations meet quality and project standards
  • Supporting testing, commissioning, and final handover

You'll be right at the centre of delivery - ensuring projects run smoothly from concept to completion.

What We're Looking For

  • Degree in Electrical Engineering (or related discipline)
  • Around 5+ years' experience in an Electrical Project Engineer or similar role in UK or Ireland
  • Background working on commercial, industrial, pharma, healthcare, or large-scale builds
  • Strong understanding of electrical systems and power distribution
  • Experience reviewing technical documentation and working in live project environments
  • Organised, proactive, and confident working with multiple stakeholders

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Work on technically complex, high-profile projects
  • Gain exposure across the entire project lifecycle - not just one phase
  • Be part of a collaborative, delivery-focused team environment
  • Strong opportunities for career development and progression
  • Join a company known for delivering projects for global, industry-leading clients

Desirable Experience

  • Exposure to BIM / Revit coordination
  • Electrical trade background
  • Experience working in highly regulated environments (pharma, healthcare, etc.)

Why Apply Through ERSG?

ERSG partner with some of the most exciting engineering and construction organisations globally. We'll support you throughout the process and connect you with opportunities that develop your career, not just your next role.

If you're an Electrical Engineer who wants to be hands-on in delivering cutting-edge projects - we'd love to hear from you.
