Up to £800 per day

UK Wide | HV Power | 11kV–132kV

Experienced HV Commissioner?

We're looking for an experienced HV Commissioning Engineer for ongoing project work across the UK.

You'll be working on major HV infrastructure projects, with a significant proportion of the current workload supporting renewable energy and data centre developments.

This is hands-on commissioning work across systems from 11kV through to 132kV.

You'll be working across:

• Primary and secondary testing

• Protection relay testing and configuration

• Secondary injection testing

• Transformers and HV switchgear

• CTs and VTs

• SCADA and control systems

• G99/G59 testing

• Fault finding

• Energisation and handover

• Commissioning documentation

We're looking for:

• Experienced HV Commissioning Engineers

• Protection relay and secondary injection experience

• Omicron/Megger or similar test equipment experience

• DNO, ICP, IDNO or private network experience

• Ability to work independently on site

• SAP status or experience working under an SAP

Experience at 132kV would be particularly attractive, although strong engineers operating at lower HV levels will also be considered.

The important bit

This is UK-wide project work and will regularly involve staying away during the week.

You can therefore be based virtually anywhere in the UK, provided you're happy travelling to wherever the project is.

Rate: up to £800/day depending on experience.

If you're an established HV Commissioning Engineer looking for well-paid, technically interesting project work with a strong pipeline behind it, we'd like to hear from you.

If you're an experienced HV Commissioning Engineer and don't mind spending time away from home, this is a package worth looking at.

We're recruiting for a growing specialist HV engineering business delivering major power infrastructure projects across the UK, with a particularly strong pipeline within renewable energy and data centre environments.

The job

You'll carry out testing and commissioning of HV electrical infrastructure from 11kV through to 132kV.

Projects include major grid connections, substations and complex power infrastructure, with much of the current workload supporting renewable energy and data centre developments.

You'll be involved in:

About you

We're looking for an experienced HV commissioning professional rather than somebody whose experience is predominantly installation or maintenance.

You'll ideally have:

• Strong hands-on HV commissioning experience

• Experience across 11kV, 33kV and ideally higher voltages

• Protection and secondary injection experience

• Experience with equipment such as Omicron and/or Megger

• DNO, ICP, IDNO or private HV network experience

• Ability to read schematics, SLDs and protection drawings

• SAP status or good experience working under an SAP

You don't necessarily need to have commissioned at 132kV already if you've got strong HV commissioning experience and the capability to progress.

You can live anywhere in the UK.

What you must be comfortable with is travelling nationwide and regularly staying away Monday to Friday.

For somebody who enjoys site work, wants technically interesting HV projects and is happy travelling, the combination of basic salary, overtime, paid travel and stay-away payments makes this a seriously strong permanent package.
