    • Conducting essential studies, calculations, and analyses to inform project decisions.
    • Participating in regular reviews and discussions with the design authority and facilities leadership.
    • Preparing a detailed report outlining defined requirements, stakeholder needs, interfaces, alternative options, solution recommendations, and potential risks.

    • Solid foundation: A Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent experience) is required. Ideally, you'll be a Chartered Engineer (CEng) or Incorporated Engineer (IEng) with a recognized professional engineering institution.
    • Technical Expertise: Possess a strong understanding of electrical engineering design principles and safety practices.
    • Power Distribution Prowess: Have experience with onshore and offshore power distribution systems, with a preference for dockyard environments.
    • Design Savvy: Have experience in the design of high voltage AC and DC distribution systems, including substations (equipment selection, layout, control & protection).
    • Standards Champion: Demonstrate a solid knowledge of relevant regulatory standards (e.g., IEC).
    • Communication Champion: Possess excellent communication skills, including the ability to deliver clear and convincing presentations, actively listen, and clarify information when necessary.
    • Independent Operator: Be able to handle discussions and technical communication independently.
    • Team Player: Thrive in a collaborative work environment.


    Bonus points if you have:


    • Familiarity with client-specific tools, methods, and templates (training provided).
