* Read, interpret and create electrical designs, ensuring all work meets NERS, DNO and regulatory standards.
* Own ICP pricing models, validate quotes, and maintain accurate cost and resource forecasting.
* Manage multi‑site delivery programmes — accountable for schedule, cost, quality and safety.
* Lead internal planning sessions and represent the ICP function in client, supplier and executive meetings.
* Identify risks, manage constraints (including civils), and resequence works to maintain throughput and SLAs.
What We’re Looking For
* Strong experience as an Electrical Project Manager, ideally within ICP, DNO/IDNO, EV infrastructure or utilities.
* Understanding of underground LV connections, DNO processes and network standards.
* Ability to read and produce electrical designs, build packs and technical documentation.
