We are looking for Senior Electrical, Control & Instrumentation (EC&I) Engineers to support major projects from our Warrington office on a long-term contract basis.

This role offers the chance to take technical ownership across a variety of complex and high-profile projects - applying your EC&I expertise to deliver safe, compliant, and high-quality engineering solutions within the UK's leading nuclear engineering business.

• Prepare, review, and approve design documentation including calculations, drawings, models, and technical reports.
• Maintain design integrity and configuration control throughout the project lifecycle.
• Participate in safety assessments, risk reviews, and design verification activities.
• Support project planning, scheduling, and progress reporting in collaboration with Project Managers.
• Act as Engineering Lead or Technical Authority when required.

What We're Looking For

• Degree (or equivalent) in Electrical, Control, or Instrumentation Engineering or a related discipline.
• Chartered Engineer status, or working toward chartership.
• Proven background in delivering EC&I engineering within complex, regulated environments.
• Member of a relevant professional engineering institution.
• Previous experience across the full EC&I project lifecycle - from concept and design through to installation and commissioning.
• Exposure to the nuclear, defence, or highly regulated industrial sectors.

If you're a driven EC&I professional looking for your next long-term contract and the opportunity to contribute to some of the UK's most significant engineering programmes, we'd love to hear from you.
