The Electrical Project Manager is responsible for leading and delivering electrical scope for projects from concept through commissioning and handover. The role involves managing project scope, budget, schedule, resources, and stakeholders while ensuring compliance with quality, safety, and operational requirements.

You will assess technical and delivery options, coordinate supplier actions and implement corrective measures to protect delivery and project profitability. Where changes affect scope, costs or milestones, you will present your recommendations to the Project Manager.

More specifically, you will:

• Lead and control electrical scope for projects throughout the complete project lifecycle.

• Plan deliverables, scope activities, milestones and resources in line with the overall project plan.
• Coordinate electrical designs and equipment specifications, ensuring compliance with legislation, customer requirements, internal engineering standards and project-specific safety and quality requirements.
• Define supplier and subcontractor packages, support technical bid evaluation and selection, and follow up on specifications, clarifications, delivery, costs and documentation.
• Prepare site activities, inspections, ensuring the required permits, competencies and safety measures are in place before work starts; coordinate testing and verification, including factory and site acceptance activities where applicable, and close outstanding points.
• Assess change requests, obtaining approval before committing to changes affecting contractual scope, price, schedule or risk.
• Complete the documentation and structured handover to the customer and Service, including as-built updates, certificates and test records where applicable.

You are highly organised and excel at maintaining an overview of the entire project lifecycle, identifying potential challenges early and proactively finding effective solutions. Your strong communication skills allow you to mediate between stakeholders, manage change effectively and resolve unforeseen issues as they arise.

We imagine that you:

• Hold a degree in Electrical Engineering, Marine Engineer or a related discipline; equivalent technical education with substantial relevant experience may also be considered.

• Have experience in electrical engineering and multidisciplinary project delivery for within food and dairy industries, process equipment, machinery or engineered-to-order projects, including customer-facing technical coordination and management of supplier, subcontractor and procurement deliverables, schedules, costs and risks.

• Have working knowledge of power distribution, motors and drives, control panels, cabling, protection concepts and associated documentation.
• Understand technical interfaces, applicable electrical standards and machinery/process-plant safety, alongside installation, testing, commissioning and handover practices.
• Speak and write English at a full professional level.
