The posting

Due to continued growth in Electrical Distribution Services, we are seeking a Senior Project Engineer to lead multi medium-scale MV/LV projects, including retrofits, modernizations, and critical maintenance jobs. The role requires full ownership of assigned projects from customer handover to invoicing and payment collection with a clear focus on margin protection, digital execution, and customer satisfaction. This position supports Schneider Electric’s digital transformation by utilizing tools such as mySchneider, Salesforce, and EcoStruxure Service Plans to streamline sales-to-execution transitions, contract creation, and progress tracking across the project lifecycle. Key Responsibilities : Project Execution & Governance: Lead the full life cycle of MV/LV electrical projects: scope validation, procurement, site works, commissioning, and handover. Use digital platforms for project creation, documentation, contract validation, and invoicing (e.g., mySchneider, Salesforce, ERP). Conduct project kick-off meetings (internal and external), aligning stakeholders on scope, risks, and delivery plans. Financial & Commercial Management: Track and manage project financials (budget, revenue forecasts, gross margin). Ensure timely invoicing and proactive cash collection using digitally structured contracts and automated billing triggers. Prepare and present margin analysis and evolution during project review meetings. Planning & Coordination: Leverage the digital tools to coordinate with Field Services, Engineering, and Supply Chain to ensure material readiness and execution sequencing. Plan manpower and tools in collaboration with FSR managers, ensuring alignment with HSE and quality plans. Ensure internal orders, subcontracts, and logistics align with contractual requirements. Digital Workflow Integration: Validate and monitor project and contract creation via Salesforce and digital sales portals, ensuring structured handover from Tendering. Collaborate with tendering and sales teams to review digital contract inputs and confirm execution feasibility. Update key milestones, payment terms, and progress in real-time via Schneider digital tools to maintain transparency and performance visibility. Risk, HSE, and Quality Control: Develop and manage project-specific HSE plans (PPE compliance, risk assessments, training, etc.). Identify risks early and implement mitigations; escalate when necessary to avoid schedule or financial impact. Ensure compliance with Schneider Electric quality standards and regulatory requirements. Customer Engagement & Feedback: Act as the primary customer interface during project execution. Communicate proactively on progress, changes, and risks. Capture and record customer feedback via satisfaction surveys at project close-out. Close-out & Continuous Improvement: Organize and lead internal 'end-of-project' debriefs to document lessons learned and improvement actions. Contribute to knowledge sharing, delivery tool improvements, and feedback into the offer development process.

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.
