An opportunity has arisen for an Electrical Engineer or Senior Electrical Engineer to join our leading Engineering Consultancy, operating within our OMC cost centre (i.e., Oxford, Milton Keynes, and Cambridge) based in our Cambridge Office.
As a young, vibrant, and innovative office, culture is at the heart of everything that we do. We encourage and foster a collaborative working environment, which includes the widespread adoption of hybrid working and the option to work a 9-day fortnight.

This is an exciting time to join Hoare Lea as we are focused on growth, both in the UK and overseas.
