The Role

Have you built your career inside power generation plants and know exactly where operational risks hide? Ready to step away from shift patterns or site pressure and use your expertise to shape smarter, safer decisions across global energy projects? If so, this Power Generation Risk Engineer role could be the fresh challenge you’ve been looking for.

You will join a respected insurance business in London, advising underwriters and brokers on real-world engineering risk. Instead of fixing issues after failure, you’ll help prevent them. You will visit sites, speak with technical teams and produce reports that directly inform insurance decisions and loss prevention strategies.

Expect a mix of travel, analysis and stakeholder collaboration. It’s technical, varied and influential work, with the freedom of hybrid working and the chance to see facilities worldwide.

If you’re ready to use your engineering knowledge in a smarter, more strategic way, apply today and start a conversation with us.
