** Senior EC&I / C&I Design Engineer – Major Nuclear Facility
**** 12‑month Contract | Inside IR35 | Hybrid (Warrington / West Cumbria)
** If you enjoy real engineering—the kind that shapes a plant’s performance for decades—this role will suit you. You’ll join a flagship nuclear project, where control systems, instrumentation and electrical design decisions genuinely matter.
This isn’t a paper‑pushing design role. It’s hands-on, supplier-facing, and integrated across the full CE&I lifecycle. You’ll help close out remaining design scope, support procurement and manufacturing activities, and make sure what’s being built on site matches the intent, the standards, and the safety case.

** What you’ll be doing:
*** Providing senior CE&I design support across procurement, manufacture, installation and commissioning.
* Managing CE&I design configuration as requirements develop and supplier information evolves.
* Producing, reviewing and approving CE&I deliverables in line with relevant standards and project deadlines.
* Working directly with suppliers: responding to technical queries, reviewing design packs, creating test specifications, and attending works testing/FAT.
* Integrating CE&I systems into wider plant systems using BIM and close collaboration with other disciplines.
* Supporting commissioning teams to ensure CE&I design intent, safety case demands, and functional requirements stay aligned.
* Ensuring Validation & Verification activities are completed, traceable, and properly controlled.
* Strong background in CE&I, Control Systems, Automation or EC&I engineering.
* Experience delivering CE&I design across full project lifecycle stages on complex or regulated projects.
* Confidence managing suppliers, leading technical discussions and taking ownership of your design areas.
* Experience with V&V, FAT/SAT, design reviews and configuration control.
* HNC/HND, BEng/MEng or equivalent. Professional registration (or working toward it) is a plus.
