Set for record investment in AMP8 – more than double that of AMP7 – MMB will bring its strong track record of innovation and direct-delivery to drive a programme of work to improve water and wastewater treatment, water and wastewater networks, storm overflows, flooding resilience, and bioresources.

With sites located across the South of the region including; Poole, Dorset and Bournemouth.

Engineering is at the very core of what we do. Be it civil, mechanical or electrical, our engineers are based on site and play a practical, hands-on role in the successful delivery of projects.

  • Produce SSOW, outage plans and RAMS, and drive Quality Assurance through ITPs, acceptance documents, training materials, completion records and defect management, ensuring strong BS7671 compliance
  • Lead functional commissioning of electrical assets (final circuits, distribution equipment, MCCs), manage “As Constructed” documentation, and support project completion deliverables
  • Develop Electrical Engineers and build strong client relationships, supporting them to achieve project outcomes

What You’ll Need

  • CSCS, ECS or JIB certified
  • SSSTS/SMSTS (or equivalent)
  • Working toward professional registration
  • HNC/Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience
  • Experience with electrical procedures and issuing Electrical Permits
  • Understanding of civil engineering principles and MEICA construction
  • Proficient in interpreting engineering drawings (SLDs, CBDs, terminations, system architecture)
  • Knowledge of relevant UK/international standards, including Client and WIMES
  • Strong organisational, problem‑solving and communication skills
  • Full driving licence and willingness to travel across the region

What Would Be Desirable
