Atkins, a member of SNC-Lavalin is one of the world’s most respected design, engineering and project management consultancies, with over 50,000 employees worldwide. At Atkins, we offer more than just a job. We offer an opportunity to make a difference and shape the world to benefit future generations and the natural environment. Drawing upon a diverse skill set and a proven track record of delivery we are playing a leading role in some of the world’s most challenging and exciting engineering projects across sectors including Aviation, Defence, Energy, Cities and Development, Education, Rail and Water.
We have an immediate opportunity for an Principal/Senior Electrical Engineer to take on a role seconded to a major project team based on site in Plymouth. The role will involve leading and managing one or more technical design packages; agreeing project related objectives, managing designer performance and making appropriate technical management responses.
Role Location: Due to Covid-19 the opportunity will currently involve being based from home but after the restrictions the role will be fully site-based. Atkins have a long-term pipeline of projects in the South West of England and especially, in the case of this opportunity, in Plymouth. The role will initially be based in Plymouth for the medium term (18-24 months) and will suit local candidates but also those looking to relocate to one of the most picturesque areas in the UK – next to Dartmoor and close to great beaches.
Secondment Details: Although the secondment is based in Plymouth we recognise that talented Engineers from across the region might be interested in this opportunity but are unable to commute to this location. With this in mind, for non-local candidates, we can offer a secondment package that includes accommodation, out-of-pocket expenses and a working week that allows for 4 longer days on site and a shorter Friday working from home or Atkins office.
If you are looking for a challenging and rewarding opportunity to apply knowledge, experience and problem-solving skills on one of the leading complex UK-based engineering projects then we would welcome your application.
