Job Description Join Ramboll’s UK Healthcare team as a Principal Electrical Engineer and lead electrical engineering design and advisory for technically demanding hospital and healthcare projects across the UK and internationally. You will define resilient, low‑carbon electrical strategies, drive high‑quality digital delivery (Revit/BIM 360) and act as a confident client‑facing technical lead working across multi‑disciplinary teams. We’re looking for someone with a proven track record delivering electrical building services on complex healthcare or high‑resilience projects, strong digital design capability, and either chartered status or qualifications that support MCIBSE, MIET or MIHEEM membership — with Ramboll providing structured chartership and professional development support.

Support and mentor the electrical team (engineers and technicians) and coordinate with multi‑disciplinary colleagues (mechanical, structural, public health, etc.).

Lead digital delivery and MEP coordination using Revit (BIM 360) and industry tools (e.g., MagiCad, Dialux, IES, Trimble).

Manage project scope, resource allocation and delivery as electrical/MEP project manager, identifying and mitigating technical and commercial risks.

Enhance Ramboll’s profile by contributing to proposals, technical thought leadership and external stakeholder engagement.
