Designer — HV/EHV Network Permanent | Full-time | Hybrid (London & Milton Keynes)

The role

This is a hands-on technical design position working alongside developers and Independent Connection Providers (ICPs) to assess, create and approve electricity network connection designs. You'll oversee the full design lifecycle — from initial project award through to network adoption — across a varied portfolio of HV and EHV projects within the electricity distribution sector.

What you'll be doing

  • Reviewing and approving electricity network connection designs submitted by developers and ICPs, including self-determination of Point of Connection (PoC) in compliance with NERS accreditation
  • Creating and developing network connection designs to company standards and all relevant regulatory requirements
  • Supporting the stage and gate process — including customer communications, delivery timelines, risk identification, environmental reviews and client kick-off meetings
  • Building and maintaining strong relationships with DNO planning and design teams to ensure effective technical and policy dialogue
  • Liaising with land rights coordinators, ICPs, developers and DNOs to secure appropriate land rights for adoptable assets
  • Reviewing and approving as-built submissions and supporting the build assurance team where design changes occur during asset energisation
  • Maintaining up-to-date knowledge of legislation applicable to the design, adoption, ownership and operation of HV and LV electricity distribution networks

What we're looking for

Essential:

  • 2+ years of electrical distribution engineering experience
  • Proven experience in HV and LV network design
  • Ability to objectively review and approve designs produced by external parties
  • Sound knowledge of regulatory and legislative compliance, including health, safety and environment
  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage and prioritise a varied workload
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a customer-focused approach
  • Degree, HNC/D or equivalent engineering qualification (preferred)

Desirable:

  • Experience in Extra High Voltage (EHV) network design
