Are you a Control Systems Engineer with solid PLC experience looking to step beyond routine tasks and take real ownership of engineering challenges?
You'll be involved across the full project lifecycle, working on complex, safety‑critical systems from design through to testing and commissioning.
Why Apply?
Work on complex, safety-critical projects - not repetitive maintenance work
Gain hands-on experience across multiple PLC platforms (not confined to a single vendor)
Be involved end-to-end, from initial design to live commissioning
What You'll Be Doing
Designing and developing PLC software using platforms such as:
Rockwell (Studio 5000)
Siemens (TIA Portal)
Schneider (EcoStruxure)
Developing and configuring HMI / SCADA systems, including:
Rockwell FactoryTalk View (ME/SE)
Schneider AVEVA, Citect, Vijeo Designer
Siemens WinCC / WinCC Flexible
Wonderware InTouch or similar platforms
Supporting full project delivery, including:
Conceptual and detailed design
System build, development, and integration
Testing (Factory Acceptance Testing and Customer Acceptance Testing)
Supporting site installation, Site Acceptance Testing, and commissioning
Contributing to system validation, testing, diagnostics, and fault-finding
Producing high-quality technical documentation (design specifications, test documentation, user manuals)
Working closely with multidisciplinary teams, including electrical, mechanical, and project delivery functions
What We're Looking For
Essential:
Degree or HND in Electrical Engineering, Control Systems, or a related discipline (or equivalent practical experience)
Experience programming PLCs and/or SCADA systems in industrial environments
Familiarity with IEC 61131 programming languages
Experience supporting system testing, integration, or commissioning activities
Strong problem-solving and fault-finding skills
Ability to work effectively within collaborative project teams
Additional Information
Hybrid working, typically 2-3 days per week in the office (project dependent)
Flexible working hours to support work-life balance
UK travel required at key project stages (e.g. site visits and commissioning)
Security clearance: BPSS required (with eligibility for SC)
