Due to continued growth, we’re looking for an experienced Senior Electrical Engineer to join our expanding Design team in Warrington. In this senior role, you’ll take a leading role in the delivery of Electrical, Instrumentation, Control and Automation (EICA) designs across a range of water and wastewater projects. Working as part of a multi-disciplinary team, you’ll provide technical expertise and guidance while ensuring designs are safe, practical, buildable and delivered to the highest standards.

Projects include pumping stations, treatment works, mechanical screening, chemical dosing and sludge handling systems. As a senior member of the team, you’ll also play an important part in supporting and mentoring engineers, reviewing technical outputs and helping drive best practice across the Design function.

Identify design risks and opportunities and ensure these are effectively managed throughout the project lifecycle. Support bid preparation, feasibility studies, inspections, design estimates and project cost planning. Contribute to project planning and programming, monitoring design resources, budgets and programme delivery. Ensure designs comply with relevant legislation, industry standards, CDM Regulations and Avove’s integrated management system.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
