We are currently looking to support our client based in Surrey with a requirement for a Principal Electrical Engineer on an Onshore FEED Project for an initial 12 month contract - with possible extensions. Hybrid working will be possible but 3 days per week must be performed in the office.
A likely rate of £65 per hour is available - outside of IR35 so Limited Company contractors CAN operate.
This is a UK temporary contract role so applicants must hold EXISTING eligibility to work in the UK via residency or work permit/VISA. Neither ourselves nor our client can apply for these.
