Controls & Electrical Design Engineer – Bespoke Process Equipment | Pharma & Chemicals

Join a Global Leader in Advanced Pharmaceutical Equipment
A rare opportunity has come up with a well-established UK manufacturer at the forefront of high-performance pharmaceutical and chemical process equipment. For 35+ years, they've been designing and delivering highly specialised systems used by some of the world’s leading pharma companies- and their retention and growth record speak for themselves.

With a broad global reach and a well-structured engineering function, this role gives you the chance to shape complex, safety-critical automation projects that blend mechanical, process, electrical and software disciplines.

What You’ll Be Working On

You’ll join a multi-skilled engineering team designing the control systems that power large, bespoke machines like filter dryers, tray ovens and pressure-rated vessels. These systems are essential to the R&D and manufacture of life-changing treatments – including diabetes therapies and other specialist pharmaceuticals.

Projects often include:

*

Full-lifecycle automation using Siemens S7 / TIA Portal and Allen-Bradley (Studio 5000, RSLogix)

*

SCADA and HMI integration (WinCC etc.)

*

Creating robust control documentation packs: FDS, IQ/OQ, cable schedules, I/O lists

*

Electrical panel layouts and schematics using Eplan 8

*

Collaborating with mechanical, process and EC&I teams

*

Global commissioning, testing and validation (GAMP, FDA, ATEX, SIL)

What You’ll Bring

*

Degree or HND in Electrical, Automation or similar field

*

Experience in automation and control of complex systems

*

Confident working with Eplan or similar electrical design tools

*

A solid understanding of pharma or process sector standards

*

Comfortable supporting projects both on-site and in the field

*

Strong communication and documentation skills

Why This Role?

This isn’t a rigid corporate role- you’ll have room to influence, grow and touch every part of the engineering lifecycle. You’ll work alongside some seriously talented engineers, get stuck into high-impact projects, and know that your work has real-world impact. Plus:

*

Salary from £45-50k, flexibility considered for the right experience

*

Hybrid working: home on Wednesdays and Fridays

*

Flexible hours with a 1pm finish on Fridays

*

25 days holiday + bank holidays + 3-day Christmas shutdown

*

Income protection & EAP (includes GP access, mental health and wellbeing support)

*

Legal & General pension (4% employer / 4% employee)

*

Death in service (4x salary)

*

RAC breakdown cover
