The Opportunity

We are seeking an experienced site-based Electrical Engineer to join our team on a high-profile project in Dublin City Centre.

  • Manage and produce comprehensive project documentation packs in line with client and project requirements.
  • Review and verify electrical designs, calculation tables, cable sizing, protection devices, fire alarm systems, energy load calculations, and regulatory compliance.
  • Coordinate with subcontractors, suppliers, and internal teams to ensure installation quality and adherence to standards.
  • Conduct inspections, tests, and verification of installed systems, compiling accurate records for compliance.
  • Prepare, submit, and track technical documentation, ensuring deadlines are met.
  • Identify issues, raise RFIs, and resolve technical queries promptly.
  • Support commissioning and client demonstration activities.

What You'll Bring
  • Degree in Electrical Services Engineering or equivalent
  • A minimum of 2–3 years' post-qualification experience in an M&E contracting or manufacturing environment.
  • Strong knowledge of electrical standards, regulations, and safety systems.
  • Proven experience creating and managing documentation packs.
  • Ability to work independently and manage a high documentation workload with minimal oversight.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to explain the rationale ("why") behind engineering decisions.
  • Proficiency in relevant software tools (e.g., Amtech, Dialux/Relux, Navisworks).

Why Join Us?
  • Career progression with a clear pathway to chartership (Accredited Engineers Ireland CPD Employer)
  • International opportunities within a growing global business
  • Be part of a project team where your technical expertise and judgment are valued
