Proposals Engineer
Location:
Leicester
Salary:
Up to £55,000 (DOE)
+ Private Healthcare + Flexible/Hybrid working
The Company:
Our client is a systems integrator specializing in control systems for rotating plant equipment. They have been around for over 40 years and are synonymous with quality within markets including power generation, oil and gas, and waste incineration.
With a team of 30 staff strong, they use their specialist skills to design and assemble tailored solutions that integrate hardware PLCs with electrical panels, providing end-users with modern, effective systems as older software becomes obsolete.
Due to growth and continuous increasing workload, they are looking for an experienced Proposals Engineer to work in conjunction with their skilled Design team to aid in winning more large-scale and lucrative projects.
The Role:
As a Proposals Engineer, you will focus on creating technical proposals and costings for bespoke projects, ranging from £250,000 to £1 million. This role blends technical engineering expertise with client interaction to deliver tailored solutions.
Your key responsibilities will include:
Preparing technical proposals, including hardware descriptions, process descriptions, and cost breakdowns. Pricing equipment, labour, and additional components. Reading technical drawings and reviewing existing configurations. Upselling improvements and additions to client packages during the proposal process. Presenting PowerPoint summaries to clients and attending occasional exhibitions or networking events.
The role is primarily office-based, with most client communication handled via email and Teams meetings. This is not a proactive sales role, involving cold calls or business development.
What We're Looking For:
To excel within the role of Proposals Engineer, you will need: A solid understanding of PLC systems, including basic building blocks, irrespective of brand. Previous experience with programmable logic controllers (PLCs). A background in electrical engineering or a related field, ideally with a formal qualification. Strong attention to detail, ensuring proposals meet client specifications and deadlines. The ability to work independently, demonstrating initiative and adaptability. Experience with turbines is beneficial, but knowledge of PLC systems is the priority.
The Benefits:
In return, the successful Proposals Engineer will receive: Competitive salary up to £55,000 depending on experience. Flexible working hours (9:00 am - 4:00 pm Monday to Thursday, 1:00 pm finish on Fridays). Hybrid work model - with one office day per week. Private healthcare. Company pension plan. 28 days of annual leave.
This role offers excellent autonomy, with the potential to take full ownership of your work while contributing to the company's success.
