Siemens - Commercial Electricity Metering
Commercial Electrical Meter Engineer
Salary: £42,500 to £45,100/year (DOE)

Are you a Commercial Electrical Meter Engineer looking for a new challenge?
As Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) worldwide bid farewell to outdated 2G networks, an industry shift is underway.
That's where you come in.
Search Energy is working in partnership with global powerhouse Siemens to expand their Commercial Electricity Metering field team.
We are recruiting 25 Electrical Meter Engineers nationwide, to support Siemens phase out their outdated and costly 2G networks and pave the way for enhanced 4G and 5G services.
This project demands a dynamic response team; the work is a mixture of 3 phase and LV / HVCT so we are hiring a range of engineers with different skill levels to join the team. An unquestionable attitude to safety, excellent customer service skills, and "can do" attitude is a pre-requisite for this role.

What are the key responsibilities?

  • Carry out complete installations and replacements of single phase and 3 phase WC AMR meters for varying contracts in varying locations
  • Installation and Maintenance of LV COP3, COP 5 and COP 10 Smart Metering Systems for Commercial and Industrial Customers
  • Installation, programming and commissioning of LVCT metering
  • Installation of meter wiring looms on LVCT from Terminal Test Blocks

    Why is this happening?

    With many MNOs having already turned off 2G in many countries, networks are becoming less reliable. That means, the modems and SIM cards across Siemens' portfolio will need to be replaced and in some cases, so will the meters. And, there is only a short window of time to complete this activity and ensure customers continue to receive their data.
    Apply today and be the spark that fuels progress.

    What's in it for you?
  • Permanent contracts with Salaries £38,850 to £43,795 banding dependent on quals and experience
  • Bonus scheme (up to 12% annual)
  • Opportunity for progression and development
  • Life insurance
  • Pension
  • 34 days holiday

    As part of the role, Search in partnership with Siemens offers bespoke upskilling opportunities to enable you to move to the next level of qualification in the commercial metering space. 3 phase to LVCT and LVCT to HVCT opportunities will be available for the right talent.
    Siemens will also consider flexible working arrangements; please speak to us to discuss what you are looking for.

    This role is managed by Search Energy in partnership with Siemens. If you are interested or want to discuss in more detail, please do not hesitate to contact us on (url removed) or call Peter on (phone number removed).

    Search is an equal opportunities recruiter and we welcome applications from all suitably skilled or qualified applicants, regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/beliefs, sexual orientation or age

Where to Advertise Data Engineering Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising data engineering jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. Data engineers occupy a distinct discipline that sits between software engineering, data science and cloud infrastructure — and the strongest candidates identify firmly with the data engineering community rather than with adjacent roles. General job boards consistently conflate data engineering with data analysis, data science and BI development, producing high application volumes but low candidate quality for specialist pipeline and platform roles. This guide, published by DataEngineeringJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data engineering roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

New Data Engineering Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving the Data Revolution

Data engineering is at the heart of the digital economy, transforming raw data into actionable insights, powering analytics, AI systems, and cloud infrastructure. As the UK and global markets continue to invest heavily in data platforms, pipelines, and real-time analytics, demand for skilled data engineers is growing rapidly. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.DataEngineeringJobs.co.uk , the critical question is: which companies are expanding, hiring, and shaping the future of data-driven business? This article highlights new data engineering employers to watch in 2026, including UK startups, scale-ups, and international firms expanding in the UK.

How Many Data Engineering Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Data Engineering Job?

If you’re aiming for a career in data engineering, it can feel like you’re staring at a never-ending list of tools and technologies — SQL, Python, Spark, Kafka, Airflow, dbt, Snowflake, Redshift, Terraform, Kubernetes, and the list goes on. Scroll job boards and LinkedIn, and it’s easy to conclude that unless you have experience with every modern tool in the data stack, you won’t even get a callback. Here’s the honest truth most data engineering hiring managers will quietly agree with: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can solve real data problems with the tools you know. Tools matter. But only in service of outcomes. Jobs are won by candidates who know why a technology is used, when to use it, and how to explain their decisions. So how many data engineering tools do you actually need to know to get a job? For most job seekers, the answer is far fewer than you think — but you do need them in the right combination and order. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look capable and employable rather than overwhelmed.
