Senior - Principal Electrical Design Engineer
City of London | Hybrid Working | Up to £75k

London | Building Services Consultancy | Design-Led Projects

If you're an experienced Electrical Design Engineer looking for more ownership, better projects, and a stronger voice in design - this is worth a look.

This consultancy is known for delivering high-quality, design-led building services engineering, working closely with architects on projects where detail, creativity, and technical excellence are equally valued. Their portfolio spans a range of sectors, with a strong focus on well-crafted, architecturally led schemes.

They're now looking for a Senior to Principal Electrical Design Engineer to take a leading role in project delivery and client engagement.

The Role
You'll play a key role in shaping projects from concept through to completion, with the autonomy to influence both design and delivery.

You will:

  • Lead electrical design delivery across a variety of projects
  • Work closely with architects and clients to develop integrated, design-led solutions
  • Take ownership of technical quality, coordination, and project outcomes
  • Act as a key point of contact for clients and stakeholders
  • Support and mentor junior engineers
  • Contribute to project strategy and problem solving


What They're Looking For

  • Strong experience in electrical building services design within a consultancy
  • Proven track record delivering projects across sectors such as commercial, residential, hospitality or mixed-use
  • Confident leading projects and managing client relationships
  • Strong technical knowledge across power, lighting, and building systems design
  • Experience mentoring or supporting junior engineers
  • Chartered or working towards chartership (preferred)


Why This Role Stands Out

  • Work on design-driven, architecturally led projects
  • Autonomy and influence over your projects
  • Clear progression pathway to Principal / leadership level
  • Collaborative, close-knit team with a strong design culture
  • Opportunity to work closely with top-tier architects and clients


Whether you're working in the larger corporate companies or a small SME this is certainly one to take note of. Please don't hesitate to apply or get in touch for further info on the email below, we can arrange a confidential conversation anytime to suit you.
