Senior Electrical, Control & Automation Engineer

Job at Unilever in Bedford, Bedford

```html

Embark on an exciting career journey as a Senior Electrical, Control & Automation Engineer with The Magnum Ice Cream Company (TMICC), a global leader in bringing joy through ice cream. This pivotal role is based at the Advanced Prototyping Engineering Centre at Colworth Science Park. TMICC, soon to be a standalone entity following an IPO from Unilever, is at the forefront of ice cream innovation, crafting delicious experiences for renowned brands like Magnum, Ben & Jerry's, and Cornetto.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a seasoned engineer to contribute to the design and implementation of cutting-edge manufacturing processes. You will be instrumental in developing the electrical, control, and automation aspects of innovation projects, ensuring they meet stringent customer requirements. If you have a robust understanding of electronics control, instrumentation, and automation, your expertise will be highly valued here.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out?

  • Pioneering Innovation: Play a key role in end-to-end product experience design and innovation for globally recognized ice cream brands. You'll be working on the very technologies that bring beloved treats to life.
  • End-to-End Project Involvement: From initial specification and design through to building, wiring, programming, commissioning, and repair, you'll be involved in the entire lifecycle of electrical, control, and automation systems for test rigs, prototype machines, and pilot plant equipment.
  • Global Impact: Your work may extend beyond the Colworth site, potentially involving equipment for other TMICC R&D facilities or factories worldwide, offering exposure to diverse operational environments.
  • Technical Expertise: You will be the primary point of contact for all electrical pilot plant equipment and automation systems, solidifying your position as a subject matter expert.
  • Career Development & Growth: This role offers significant opportunities to hone your skills in areas like Siemens (TIA Portal, LogoSoft) and Rockwell (Studio 5000) platforms, problem-solving, and project management within a dynamic and evolving business.
  • Competitive Offering: Beyond a competitive salary, TMICC provides an annual bonus, subsidized gym membership, a discounted staff shop, and shares.
  • Flexible & Inclusive Environment: TMICC is committed to wellbeing and offers a supportive, family-friendly, and inclusive workplace. Flexible working options will be discussed, and diversity is celebrated.

Key Considerations for Your Career Path:

  • Technical Proficiency: A strong foundation in electrical engineering, control systems, and automation is essential. Experience with specific platforms like Siemens and Rockwell is highly advantageous.
  • Problem-Solving Acumen: The ability to creatively solve problems and troubleshoot control systems is critical, as you'll be tasked with identifying and resolving issues with prototype equipment.
  • Project Management Skills: You'll be responsible for planning projects, setting timelines, and managing budgets, requiring a structured and organized approach.
  • Collaboration: This role necessitates strong teamwork and communication skills to effectively liaise with Brand & Product Development Teams, Mechanical Designers, Process Engineers, and external suppliers in a multicultural, multidisciplinary setting.
  • Adaptability: As part of a company undergoing an IPO and potential site consolidations, adaptability and a growth mindset will be key assets. The role's location is currently confirmed at Colworth Science Park, with potential future transitions to Kingston-upon-Thames being subject to consultation.
  • Safety Consciousness: Strict adherence to electrical safety rules and relevant legislation is paramount.
  • Travel: Occasional travel to UK and international sites (approximately 2-3 trips per year) is expected.

This role presents an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Senior Electrical, Control & Automation Engineer to make a significant impact within a beloved global brand. If you are passionate about innovation, possess a strong technical skillset, and thrive in a collaborative environment, we encourage you to explore this exciting prospect.
