- Location: Hybrid working, with a minimum of 2 to 3 days per week on site in the North West. Occasional visits to design offices and the System Integrator's facilities will also be required.
Experience:
- Proven experience delivering industrial control systems projects.
- Experience acting as an Intelligent Client, Design Authority Representative, Lead Engineer, or Technical Assurance Engineer.
- Experience managing System Integrators or third-party design organisations.
- Strong working knowledge of:
- PLC and SCADA systems
