Job Description



Start here. Grow here.

Are you ready to join an innovative and industry-leading Transmission & Distribution team? Join us and develop your skills on transformational work which will make a huge impact towards delivering the energy transition!

We are at the forefront of the energy sector’s transformation, driving the shift toward a more sustainable and inclusive future. As Europe accelerates efforts to reduce carbon emissions and transition to clean energy, we’re playing a pivotal role in delivering innovative, low-carbon energy solutions that meet the growing demands of the industry, our communities, and the planet.

Transmission and Distribution (T&D)

We have a tremendously challenging programme in front of us in the run up to achieving 2030 net zero targets. New overhead lines, underground cables, substations, battery storage and subsea links are all needed – and quickly. AECOM Transmission and Distribution is currently supporting the network development which will underpin grid modernisation. Our experts are involved at all stages of grid modernisation – and so can you be if you join us.


Join our Transmission & Distribution (T&D) Engineering team which provides a range of services from the initial concept through High Voltage Power Systems Analysis, Cabling, Substations, Transmission and Distribution Infrastructure, System Balancing and Compensation, Protection Systems, SCADA, Communications, Converter Station Design, HVDC Systems and Interconnectors including overseas links. 

Working to modernise the UK’s Energy Infrastructure

AECOM has been recently appointed to provide design and consenting services for the UK's National Grid’s Great Grid Program, in a joint venture with Arup. This £9bn initiative aims to enhance the electricity transmission network, ensuring the integration of renewable energy sources, including offshore wind farms, into the grid by 2030, which will also support future projects beyond 2030. The project focuses on upgrading infrastructure to meet future energy demands, reduce fossil fuel dependency, and support the UK's net zero emissions target.

Enjoy the Perks.

At AECOM, you'll enjoy a range of core and personalised benefits designed to support your future and well-being, customised to fit your lifestyle. Take advantage of career development opportunities, our flexible hybrid working model to ensure a work-life balance that suits your lifestyle, technical practice networks, AECOM University, and volunteering days.

  • Ability to communicate effectively to internal and external clients, both verbally & in writing with the confidence to engage with a variety of people (clients, colleagues, stakeholders and sub-contractors alike) and the aptitude to rationally explain, explore and discuss technical issues and capture feedback.
