Job Description SummaryAbout the role
Ready to bring your skills into a role where your thinking, problem-solving and technical curiosity can help power the future?
Our Lead Control & Protection Engineer role offers someone with transferable strengths, fresh perspectives and the drive to learn the opportunity to grow and make an impact on the energy transition.
This role would suit an engineer with strong systems thinking, modelling, analysis, and technical leadership skills who wants to apply their expertise in a new domain. You may come from adjacent industries such as power systems, electrical engineering, automation, simulation, controls, protection, rail, aerospace, oil and gas, utilities, or other complex engineering environments where safety, reliability, and technical rigour are essential.

Job Description

What you will do:
•    Lead and contribute to the design, modelling, verification, and validation of control and protection functions
•    Build and use simulation models to assess system behaviour and performance
•    Review technical solutions, identify risks, and propose safe, reliable, and compliant approaches
•    Support dynamic performance studies and investigate system behaviour under fault and disturbance conditions
Technical Skills we are looking for:
•    An understanding of how HVDC systems support the reliable transfer of power and the core elements that bring the system together.
•    The ability to read simple technical diagrams and understand the role of key equipment, signals and interfaces within a system.
•    Confidence in building and running simple models with guidance, checking results carefully and using data to support clear, reliable conclusions.
•    A structured approach to control system configuration, testing and troubleshooting, with an understanding of how information moves through a system.
•    The ability to support routine studies, interpret results and spot when outputs need closer review or further investigation.

About you:
We’re looking for someone who enjoys working with others, takes ownership and turns complex information into practical action. Someone who looks for better ways of working, brings ideas that improve how we deliver, stays motivated when priorities change and adapts quickly to new challenges. In this role, you help shape reliable solutions that make a real difference to our customers and the energy transition.
You do not need to have worked in HVDC before if you can demonstrate the right transferable skills, a strong learning mindset, and the ability to work with complex systems.


Why join us:
This is a chance to work on complex, high-impact engineering challenges with a collaborative team. You’ll have the opportunity to develop deep specialist knowledge while bringing fresh thinking from outside the industry and develop existing and new skills.
