Imagine being at the forefront of revolutionising how one of the most vital industries on the planet—food production—approaches hygiene, sustainability, and efficiency. At the heart of this transformation is a pioneering company based just north of Oxford, whose mission is to make the food industry cleaner, greener, and smarter. This is your opportunity to become a core part of that mission as their Lead Electrical Design & Control Systems Engineer.
The company has developed breakthrough technology that transforms simple ingredients—salt and water—into powerful cleaning and disinfection solutions. These innovations don't just clean more effectively; they reduce environmental impact and operational costs, helping major food producers achieve exceptional hygiene while consuming less power, water, and chemicals.
This is a role where your expertise in electrical design and control systems will shape the future of in-house developed production systems. You’ll lead the charge on the electrical design of machinery that’s already making waves across the UK and Europe. From high-spec PLCs to hands-on system troubleshooting, you’ll be responsible for ensuring these systems perform at their peak on-site and remotely, supporting a vision for sustainable, high-performance technology.
You'll be part of a tight-knit, ambitious engineering team that values curiosity, collaboration, and bold thinking. The company encourages open dialogue, innovation, and continuous learning. You'll have the space to lead, experiment, and grow—while making a tangible impact.
The role blends on-site time at the Kidlington office with flexible home working, offering the best of both worlds. You'll also occasionally travel to customer locations, where your designs come to life and deliver real-world value. It’s a dynamic position that requires both technical precision and creative thinking.
If you're someone with a solid grounding in electrical engineering—perhaps with experience in panel design, PLC programming (especially with CODESYS and Schneider systems), and a sharp eye for compliance and safety—this could be your next big step. Beyond the technical know-how, the ideal candidate is an excellent communicator, a proactive problem-solver, and someone who thrives in an environment where no two days are the same.
In return, you’ll receive a competitive salary, annual bonus, share options, a generous pension contribution, 25 days of leave, and outstanding development opportunities in a company that’s scaling fast—and smart.
