Electrical Engineer

🚀 This is mainly an office-based role between Bristol and Bridgwater, with around 3-4 days per week expected in the office. Occasional working from home, site visits and supplier visits may also be required. You will support electrical support systems on a major nuclear infrastructure project.

• Support documentation for blocked or non-conforming supports.
• Assist with bills of quantities and support trackers.
• Provide input on welded and bolted support assemblies.
• Resolve supplier comments, technical queries and non-conformance issues.

• Familiarity with Teamcenter, Navisworks, CEMAR or similar tools.
