The Opportunity
The Resolute Group is proud to partner with a leading Tier 1 contractor delivering the Great Grid Upgrade framework— a multi-billion-pound investment in the UK's high-voltage infrastructure. As part of this growth, we are seeking a Regional Engineering Manager to support the civil engineering design assurance and coordination across sub-station projects in North Wales.
This role is ideally suited to an experienced civil engineer with sub-station project knowledge, either from a consultancy design background or through site-based technical support.
Role Overview
As Regional Engineering Manager, you will:
* Act as the design authority for civil engineering aspects of substation projects.
* Provide design assurance support — ensuring accuracy, buildability, and compliance across all engineering works.
* Interface with electrical contractors and coordinate with site teams.
* Support the full project life cycle, from award and mobilisation through to delivery and handover.
* Split your time between 2–3 sites and remote technical support (Teams meetings, documentation, coordination).
This is not an electrical engineering design role but one requiring strong civil engineering expertise in substation construction and delivery.
Key Responsibilities
* Oversee civil engineering design and ensure compliance with project requirements.
* Coordinate between design consultants, site teams, and electrical contractors.
* Provide technical support and assurance throughout design, construction, and handover.
* Attend site as required, supporting operations teams in project delivery.

Required Experience
* HNC / HND / Degree in Civil Engineering.
* Proven experience in substation projects—either design delivery within consultancy or site-based technical support.
* Strong understanding of civil engineering within substation builds.
* Full UK driving licence.
