The role could work really well for someone in the beginning stages of their career with 2-5 years design experience or a seasoned Engineer with more experience – the client is open to all suggestions.

The client is a small & very well-established system integrator. This means the successful Electrical Design Engineer could potentially have a big impact on the team, whilst progressing into a more senior role.

The client’s customers are predominantly based in the North of England and Wales, so any site work will involve short term visits rather than spending weeks/months away at a time.

They have customers in various sectors including chemical, water and steel so they’re not tied to one industry; giving them opportunities to expand in growing industries if one sector they operate in slows up.

The client’s premises are easily commutable from the following locations – Stoke, Congleton, Crewe, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Leek, Middlewich and Nantwich.
