Location: Buckinghamshire (Hybrid)
Salary: Competitive + package
Sector: HV Power / Energy Infrastructure / Renewables
The Opportunity
I’m working with a growing HV engineering contractor delivering infrastructure projects across the UK.
They operate as a full turnkey provider, covering design, construction, commissioning and maintenance of electrical networks, with a strong pipeline across:
* Grid & private network connections
* Renewable energy (Solar / BESS)
* EV charging infrastructure
* Commercial & industrial developments
Due to continued growth, they’re looking to bring in a Senior Authorised Person (11/33kV) to support both HV operations and project delivery.
The Role
This is not a “standalone switching” position.
You’ll play a key role across live network operations and project execution, working closely with delivery and engineering teams to energise and support new infrastructure.
Typical responsibilities include:
* Acting as SAP for switching operations (11/33kV)
* Supporting energisation and commissioning of new connections
* Overseeing HV installation works on site
* Ensuring compliance with DNO / IDNO standards and safety procedures
* Working alongside design, civils and delivery teams
* Supporting technical decision making and project delivery
What They’re Looking For
* Senior Authorised Person (11/33kV)
* Background in HV networks, connections, or infrastructure projects
* Experience working within DNO, ICP or HV contracting environments
* Strong understanding of UK power industry standards and procedures
* Comfortable working across site-based and project environments
Desirable:
* Experience with commissioning / energisation
* Exposure to renewables, EV or grid connection projects
* Relevant qualifications (HNC / SMSTS / IOSH etc.)
Why It’s Worth a Conversation
* Blend of HV operations + project delivery (not siloed)
* Exposure to renewables, EV and grid infrastructure projects
* Opportunity to work across multiple asset types and environments
* Growing business with a strong pipeline of work
