  &bull; Direct client interaction that builds commercial awareness
 </p>
 <p>
  &bull; Clear reporting lines to senior leadership and real career progression pathways
 </p>
 <p>
  &bull; A workplace culture built on accountability, integrity, and technical excellence
 </p>
 <p>
  &bull; The opportunity to influence project outcomes rather than just produce drawings
 </p>
 <p>
  <br/>

 </p>
 <p>
  &bull; Degree qualified in Electrical Engineering (BSc/BEng or equivalent)
