The Role

You will take ownership of all electrical engineering aspects and provide crucial support in electrical maintenance to optimise plant availability.

• Health, Safety, and Environmental Management: Implement and continuously improve HSSE management policies. Conduct plant risk assessments and develop mitigation plans.
• Electrical Maintenance and Engineering: Establish and implement electrical maintenance policies and procedures. Lead and oversee all plant electrical engineering and maintenance issues. Maintain, service, repair, and record history of plant electrical equipment, especially critical assets. Assess, order, and control electrical system equipment spares to optimize plant reliability.
• Technical Support and Team Collaboration: Provide technical advice and practical assistance to the maintenance team. Support broader plant management and development of maintenance personnel. Support other UK power plants and collaborate for knowledge transfer and best practices.
• Project and Contract Management: Plan outages, manage projects, and coordinate electrical resources and contracts. Source, manage, and supervise electrical engineering maintenance contracts. Ensure quality assurance of all electrical engineering and maintenance work.
• Compliance and Budget Management: Comply with site management of change policies and procedures. Manage and control electrical maintenance instructions, procedures, and risk assessments. Control electrical maintenance budgets and advise on future projections.
• Equipment Lifecycle and Condition Monitoring: Manage the life cycle of installed electrical equipment and review reliability risks. Monitor the condition of critical electrical assets (eg, transformer DGA, online PD, and temperature monitoring devices).
• Flexibility and Availability: Be on call and adapt working patterns to meet business needs. Fulfill roles and responsibilities as defined in company safety rules and procedures. Support the engineering manager in reviewing new company objectives impacting site electrical equipment.

You will have previous involvement in various electrical projects and have experience with HV and LV tools associated with power generation, including high voltage rotating plant, power transformers, switch gear, protection relays, cabling installation, low voltage switch gear, UPS/DC systems, or VSD drives. Your flexible personality, communication and organisational skills enable you to collaborate effectively, whilst working well independently too. You will have a strong commitment to workplace safety and the confidence to have technical discussions and challenge safety standards when needed.
