We don’t just talk about diversity; we seek it, embrace it, and live it, for the benefit of our staff, our communities, and our environment. As an organisation we strive to reflect the communities we serve and continue to develop diversity throughout our workforce.

We welcome applications from all backgrounds regardless of race, sexual orientation, or religion.

This unique role is an opportunity for an experienced electrical engineer to assure all electrical activity, provide electrical technical guidance, ensure electrical statutory compliance, and enable carbon reduction initiatives across multiple flood & coastal risk management and Water, Land & Biodiversity assets.

The successful candidate will work very closely with numerous construction and design partners acting as the knowledgeable person for the client. You will be a key person within the EA’s national network of senior engineers and work in partnership with the national electrical assurance and safety initiatives.

You will provide design/technical advice ensuring compliance with electrical statutory legislation for British and European standards, and the EA’s codes of practices, procedures, and related guidance.
You will assure the technical capability and competence of staff, identifying areas of technical development for the EA. You will help to plan and deliver crucial asset investments, including flood protection to homes, businesses and the environment, which will have an increasingly important role as we face the challenge of global climate change.

Following our ISO55001 Asset Management accreditation, you will be working to develop a world class asset management organisation.

Responding to incidents is a central part of what we do. You will be asked to have an incident role and make yourself available to respond to incidents or provide business continuity support during an incident. This will attract an additional payment and full training will be available to support you with your incident role.
