Site Layout & Civil/Drainage Design Support — Develop preliminary and detailed site layouts considering equipment spacing, fire/thermal separation, access roads, laydown areas and future augmentation space. — Support civil design of BESS sites — grading plans, cut/fill balancing, access road layout, and foundation/pad arrangement — working alongside civil engineers and consultants. — Draw and update drainage and stormwater layouts — swales, attenuation/detention features, erosion & sediment control — from calculations and specifications provided by civil engineers or specialist drainage consultants, rather than originating the underlying design yourself. — Build and update existing/proposed surface models using survey and topographic data to support grading and drainage design led by civil engineers. — Flag site constraints (flood risk, ground conditions, watercourses, easements) early in the design process for review and resolution by the engineering team and external consultants. Drawing Standards & Process — Support the development and continuous improvement of in-house CAD and drawing standards, templates and title blocks that can be applied consistently across UK, European and Australian projects. — Help standardise layer naming, drawing numbering, symbol libraries and file management conventions across the organization. — Maintain organized project files and drawing registers, including full revision history and issue tracking. — Support quality assurance/quality control checks on drawings produced internally and by external designers or consultants. Cross-Functional Collaboration — Work closely with the Lead Electrical Engineer and wider engineering team & consultants to ensure layouts reflect electrical equipment, cabling routes and switchgear/transformer requirements. — Collaborate with development and planning teams to produce drawings that meet local planning authority and permitting requirements across each market. — Liaise with external civil, structural and grid consultants, surveyors and contractors as designs progress from concept to construction issue. ### REQUIREMENTS Experience — 3–5+ years' experience as a CAD Technician, CAD Engineer or Draftsperson, ideally within renewable energy, BESS, solar, substation or broader energy infrastructure projects. — Demonstrable experience producing layout drawings for utility-scale projects (BESS, solar, or comparable infrastructure) through planning and into construction issue. — Exposure to civil site design elements — grading, drainage/stormwater, access roads, earthworks — either hands-on or in close support of civil engineers. — Experience working across more than one market/jurisdiction, or willingness and aptitude to learn UK, EU and Australian planning and drawing conventions. Technical Skills — Strong proficiency in AutoCAD; working knowledge of Civil 3D (grading, pipe networks/drainage design) strongly preferred. — Familiarity with 3D modelling tools such as Revit or 3ds Max advantageous. — Understanding of BESS or solar equipment layout principles — spacing, fire/thermal separation, access, cable routing — and how they interact with civil constraints. — Basic understanding of stormwater management principles and drainage design conventions in at least one target market (UK SuDS, EU national equivalents, or Australian stormwater/drainage codes). — Comfortable interpreting engineering calculations, geotechnical/topographic survey data, and specifications from electrical and civil engineers. Qualifications — Relevant qualification in CAD design, civil/building engineering, drafting, or equivalent practical experience. — Degree or HNC/HND in Civil Engineering, Building Services, or related discipline advantageous but not essential. Other — Excellent attention to detail and accuracy — designs feed directly into planning submissions and construction packages. — Strong communicator, comfortable working within a multi-disciplinary team spanning electrical, civil, planning and development. — Organised, process-minded, and motivated to help build standards for a growing team rather than just produce individual drawings. — Ability to work with a global and multi-cultural team in a fast paced environment — Additional European language skills (e.g. German, Spanish, Italian) advantageous given multi-market TSO/DSO engagement. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Not stated - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 19, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 19, 2026 - Listed for: Under a day - Location: 英国[Apply on Contemporary Amperex Technology’s careers site →](https://app.mokahr.com/social-recruitment/catlhr/98098#/job/7df2e841-6643-41d3-b3f3-0113fe354297) ## More jobs at Contemporary Amperex Technology ### [BESS Project Manager](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/contemporary-amperex-technology/jobs/3ea4f201ebaba047a22c/) 英国 ### [Field Service Engineer-UK](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/contemporary-amperex-technology/jobs/644296decadedeb5cc2a/) 英国 ### [M&A Associate](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/contemporary-amperex-technology/jobs/5514a1a50a2db4bb8903/) 英国 ### [Mechanical Engineer - Kentucky](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/contemporary-amperex-technology/jobs/f153ed5d6c9d90215ba2/) 美国 ### [Mechanical Engineer – Industrial HVAC & Environment Control - Kentucky](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/contemporary-amperex-technology/jobs/20ae6d52fff4c98fc5ed/) 美国 ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Senior CAD technician- Civil Stafford, England Stafford, England Unknown Unknown](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/vinci/jobs/383a460c78b8f54d4272/) VINCI · Stafford, England ### [HV Cables CAD Technician](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/siemens-energy/jobs/79651a6b0faed4f80c4f/) Siemens Energy ### [Mechanical Engineering CAD Technician](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/siemens-energy/jobs/282552427a24413da3e7/) Siemens Energy ### [Graduate Engineer/CAD Technician – Permanent Contract - UK F/H Bristol, England Bristol, England ENGINEERING / DESIGN STUDIES / METHODS ENGINEERING / DESIGN STUDIES / METHODS Permanent](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/vinci/jobs/45a24c7b1ec890b9b1bb/) VINCI · Bristol, England ### [CAD Designer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/totalenergies/jobs/77be6c5f92b238073cd9/) TotalEnergies OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
