Electro-Mechanical Project Engineer

Are you an experienced Electro-Mechanical Project Engineer looking for a varied and technically challenging role within bespoke automation and special purpose machinery?

This is an excellent opportunity for an Electro-Mechanical Project Engineer to join a highly specialised engineering team delivering complex automation systems used across global industrial facilities spanning a number of high regulatory market sectors and advanced engineering sectors.

As an Electro-Mechanical Project Engineer, you will play a key role throughout the full project lifecycle — from concept and design through to installation, commissioning and ongoing engineering support.

The successful Electro-Mechanical Project Engineer will support the design, development and delivery of bespoke automation equipment and engineered systems used across international manufacturing operations.

This is a hands-on and technically diverse role, combining project engineering, mechanical and electrical design, system integration and customer-facing project coordination.

Responsibilities will include:

• Managing engineering projects through the full lifecycle
• Producing technical proposals, specifications and engineering documentation
• Supporting budgeting, scheduling and project delivery activities
• Coordinating engineering deliverables and technical submissions
• Mechanical and electrical design development
• Creating BOMs, wiring diagrams and control panel layouts
• Conducting equipment testing and performance validation
• Supporting machine builds, panel wiring and system integration
• Working with robotics, sensors, feeders and automation equipment
• Supporting on-site installation and commissioning activities
• Providing ongoing technical support for deployed equipment globally
• Travelling internationally to customer and manufacturing sites as required

We are interested in engineers with a strong electro-mechanical background and a passion for solving complex technical challenges.

Suitable candidates are likely to have:

• Degree qualification in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline
• Previous experience within project engineering, automation or special purpose machinery environments
• Strong understanding of electrical systems and components
• Experience producing electrical schematics and wiring layouts
• Strong CAD capability, ideally using SolidWorks
• Experience within manufacturing or industrial engineering environments
• Good understanding of machine integration and automation systems
• Strong communication and organisational skills
• Ability to manage multiple engineering activities simultaneously
• Good IT skills including Microsoft Office and project management tools

Experience with any of the following would be advantageous:

• Control panels
• Robotics
• Sensors and instrumentation
• Linear motion systems
• Machine automation
• Mechanical integration
• Electrical hardware design

This organisation is a globally recognised engineering and manufacturing group supporting industrial customers worldwide through advanced engineered process and automation solutions.

The engineering division supports facilities across multiple international locations, delivering new machinery, upgrades, repair projects and process improvement initiatives.

You will join a close-knit engineering team with excellent exposure to technically challenging projects and genuine long-term development opportunities.

• Competitive salary
• Varied and technically challenging projects
• International travel opportunities
• Collaborative engineering environment
• Long-term progression and development
• Exposure to bespoke automation technologies
• Opportunity to work across multiple industries and applications

If you are an Electro-Mechanical Project Engineer seeking a role offering real engineering variety, international project exposure and the opportunity to work on bespoke automation systems, we would love to hear from you.
