Lead HV Design Engineer (ICP / Grid Connections) — WinDebut, IPSA
Surrey | Hybrid, 2–3 days on site
£70,000–£80,000 + bonus + private medical, enhanced pension, life assurance, 26 days holiday
Commutable from Guildford, Woking, Epsom, Redhill, Crawley, Kingston and South-West London.
---
If you're a senior HV design engineer sitting behind a design manager who isn't going anywhere, this is the step up!
We're hiring a Lead HV Design Engineer for a multi-utility ICP delivering across a multi-utility environment. You'd own the design function: engineers reporting to you, technical authority on the complex jobs, and the final word on what gets submitted to the DNO.
It's a genuine mix. You'll still design, but you'll also build the team, sharpen the process, and sit across the table from DNOs on the connections that don't fit the standard template.
What you'll be doing
- Leading and developing a team of design engineers.
- Approving LV, HV and EHV network designs before they go out.
- Owning DNO connection applications and upstream network negotiations.
- Acting as technical authority on the difficult ones, and working directly with developers and customers.
What you'll need
- Solid LV and HV network design experience from a DNO, IDNO or ICP background. EHV is a bonus, not a barrier.
- WinDebut, IPSA, VisNet or equivalent.
- Working knowledge of 2D CAD and ENA/G81 design standards.
- Some experience mentoring or checking other engineers' work. You don't need to have run a team before — we'll back you to grow into it.
Why this one
- A real band, not an "up to" figure. £70,000–£90,000 (plus bonus) depending on where you land.
- 2 days working from home. The design work happens wherever your laptop is.
- The company is growing fast and the design function is being built around whoever takes this role.
- Private medical, enhanced pension, life assurance, 26 days holiday
