The Opportunity
The UK&I energy sector is undergoing a seismic shift. Surging demand, stricter regulations, and ambitious net-zero goals are driving groundbreaking innovation. Here's your chance to be at the heart of it all.
We are open to speaking with ideally Principal/Senior or Experienced Overhead Line Design Engineers in relation to exploring future opportunities in line with our growth strategy to join our Transmission & Distribution team, with roles based in any of our UK offices.
As an Overhead Line Design Engineer within our team, you will be involved in delivering a wide range of OHL projects – producing and reviewing technical documents in line with industry standards. This varied role includes developing design criteria, conductor and structure type selection, insulation coordination, and lightning performance assessments.
You will develop typical OHL design deliverables such as line schedules, plan/profile drawings, staking tables, and special crossings design. Conduct feasibility studies to assess technical and economic viability, and coordinate with other disciplines (civil, structural) to ensure project integrity.
This is a great time to join the energy team at Stantec as we grow. If you're interested in advancing your career and joining us, we would love to hear from you. More information about our Energy & Resources Division can be found at the link below:

About You
You should ideally have a degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Structural, or Civil Engineering, or relevant industry experience from a hands-on/construction background. CEng, IEng registration, or working towards registration is beneficial.
Experience as an Overhead Line Design Engineer or similar role on Transmission and Distribution projects is required. Preferably, you will have worked for a Design Consultant, Design/Build Contractor, or Asset Owner. Proficiency in PLS-CADD for new and modified OHL designs, and familiarity with UK design standards are essential.
Additional understanding of T&D disciplines such as HV Plant or HV Cable design, or T&D Civil design, is advantageous. Experience managing OHL deliverables and workload across multiple projects is also desirable.
You should be a team player, passionate about innovation and client service, with ambitions to tackle engineering challenges and contribute to our growth.
