Head of Project Engineering - High-Voltage Systems (a) - Region Zurich, Switzerland

The energy transition requires robust, innovative, and secure high-voltage systems. As one of the leading experts in this field, our client is seeking a visionary and experienced Head of Project Engineering

Tasks

• Shape instead of just manage: You will take over the technical and budgetary overall responsibility for our internal and external engineering services in the field of high-voltage cable systems.
• From concept to reality: You define the design standards of the future and develop clever, well-thought-out concepts for the transport, laying, and installation of high-voltage technology (including secondary systems).
• Design smart solutions: You are the hub for technical inquiries. You translate complex specifications into optimal, customer-specific system solutions, where costs, benefits, and risks are in perfect balance.
• Hands-on leadership: You lead a small team of highly qualified experts. You stay close to the action – whether it's the further development of internal engineering software, daily operations, or serving as a technical sparring partner for sales and project management directly at the customer site.

Qualification

• Academic depth: A successfully completed master's or diploma degree in electrical engineering or a comparable field.
• Fundamental track record: 5 to 10 years of professional experience in engineering, paired with verifiable successes in leading technical projects. If you have already gained experience with high-voltage projects and installations, that is a significant advantage.
• Maker mentality: You are not afraid to dive into calculations and feasibility studies yourself. Ideally, you have already demonstrated your goal-oriented, result-oriented, and problem-solving skills in a first leadership role.
• Communication strength: You move confidently on all hierarchical levels and convince internal and external stakeholders. We expect fluent German and English in writing and speaking.

We at CONCAPE will accompany you throughout the entire application process, from initial contact to contract signing directly with the customer (direct placement) – including relocation support for applicants from abroad.
