The Opportunity

This is a brilliant opportunity for an experienced Electrical Project Manager to join a well-established and growing engineering team, delivering high-value electrical infrastructure projects within a live food manufacturing environment.

You won’t be working on the manufacturing process itself — your focus will be on ensuring supporting infrastructure such as power distribution is designed, installed, and managed to the highest standards. With a project scope in excess of £1m and visibility across multiple sites, this is a chance to make a real impact in a fast-paced, client-led environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

* Managing the design and delivery of electrical infrastructure projects in a live food production setting, to include control panels.

* Overseeing installation of supporting infrastructure such as power distribution and site services (excluding production equipment).

* Taking responsibility for H&S compliance, project timelines, and budget management (support and training available for P&L ownership).

* Acting as a key client-facing representative, able to speak confidently about live and upcoming projects.

* Coordinating with design teams, stakeholders, and site teams to ensure smooth project execution.

What We’re Looking For

* Strong background in electrical project management or project engineering — ideally within construction, utilities, or facilities engineering.

* Knowledge of control panels and instrumentation,

* Comfortable managing large-scale projects (£1m+) with multiple moving parts.

* Excellent communication skills and a confident, client-facing attitude.

* Ability to manage both live project delivery and early-stage project discussions.

* Willingness to learn and grow — support is available for candidates developing their leadership or commercial skills.

* You won’t be hands-on — this role is all about overseeing, leading, and delivering.

What’s in it for You?

* A competitive salary in the region of £60,000 – £65,000, plus car allowance.

* The chance to lead high-value projects with genuine business impact.

* A structured career path, with coaching available in leadership and P&L responsibility.

* 25 days holiday plus bank holidays.

* A supportive, growth-oriented culture within a respected engineering team.
