Project Electrical Engineer - Tired of job ads that sound like they were written by a committee? Here's one that isn't. We're Kirby. We don't just build projects-we build careers. If you want to work for a company that values quality, collaboration, and people who take ownership, keep reading. We're looking for a Project Electrical Engineer who can do more than tick boxes. Someone who can take ownership of electrical engineering delivery on major projects and make things happen-not just talk about them. Here's the deal: You'll plan, organize, and lead electrical engineering activities across P&R projects. That means being the person who knows what's going on, and making sure everyone else does too. You'll be the go-to contact for the client. If you're good at building strong, assertive relationships without sounding like a robot, you'll fit right in. You'll make sure the design and delivery process runs like clockwork-from start-up through commissioning and handover. If something's off, you'll spot it early and fix it. What you'll actually do (not the fluffy version): Get stuck into project specs, programmes, and procurement from day one. Liaise with vendors and design teams so deadlines don't become pipe dreams. Keep QA/QC tight and make sure technical submissions don't gather dust. Hold progress meetings that actually move things forward. Manage risks before they become disasters. Own commissioning and handover like a pro. What we're not looking for: Someone who hides behind emails. Someone who thinks "liaising" means sending a PDF and hoping for the best. What we are looking for: A sharp, organized engineer who can juggle timelines, vendors, and clients without dropping the ball. Someone who understands that cost control isn't just a spreadsheet exercise. A communicator who can keep everyone-from design teams to clients-on the same page. If you want a role where you're just another cog, this isn't it. If you want a role where you're trusted to lead, solve problems, and deliver quality work that actually matters, let's talk. To be considered for this role you will be redirected to and must complete the application process on our careers page. To start the process click the Continue to Application below.
MEP Design Manager You probably don't get excited by "roles and responsibilities" lists. Neither do we. So let's cut to the chase. We're Kirby Group Engineering. 2,000+ people. €900m+ turnover. Projects across Ireland, the UK and mainland Europe. The stuff we design and build? Data centres, power transmission, pharma facilities, hyperscale projects. Big, complex, high-stakes engineering that makes the lights stay on and the internet keep working. Now to you. We need someone to take charge of mechanical and electrical design on some of the most technically demanding projects we deliver. Someone who doesn't just manage engineers, but knows how to get the best out of them - across multiple regions, with different cultures, time zones, and approaches. This isn't a "check drawings and sign them off" type role. It's leadership at project level. It's building teams, improving processes, spotting design gaps before they turn into expensive mistakes, and making sure the whole thing runs like clockwork. What you'll actually do: Lead design and engineering activity on major projects - power, cooling, telecoms, controls. Manage teams across Ireland, the UK, and Europe. Be the person construction teams call when they hit something too complex to solve locally. Improve how we do design - and make sure the "Kirby Way" keeps evolving. Recruit, coach and develop engineers so they're better next year than they are today. Front up to clients in tender interviews and kick-off meetings, representing design and engineering with confidence. What you won't do: Drown in bureaucracy. Sit in one office and never see the bigger picture. Be a small cog in a giant machine. What we're looking for: A strong electrical design engineering background Experience leading design teams on big projects. Someone comfortable making calls when it matters - even if the information isn't perfect. A leader who knows when to back their team, and when to challenge them. The deal: Salary and benefits that reflect the seniority of the role. Projects that stretch you - and give you the kind of experience most engineers only read about. If you want to lead design on projects that keep the modern world running, let's talk.
