Full job description Electrical Infrastructure Manager
Forest House | Salary to be confirmed | Hybrid working | Occasional travel across our UK villages
We’re a thriving team passionate about working together to deliver excellence, all in a natural forest environment
Welcome to Center Parcs, the number one choice for short break holidays, employing a team of over 10,000 across Forest House and six separate villages located in the UK and Ireland.
Our electrical infrastructure is fundamental to the future of Center Parcs. As our villages continue to evolve, major developments, new accommodation, leisure facilities and low-carbon technologies will all rely on resilient electrical networks with the capacity to support our five-year business plan.
This is a newly defined specialist leadership role within our Estates team. You’ll take strategic ownership of electrical infrastructure across all six villages, bringing together HV and LV expertise, long-term network planning and the delivery of significant capital projects. With around £5.5 million of electrical infrastructure projects already on site, this is an opportunity to shape how power is brought into our villages, distributed around them and developed for the future.
What you’ll be doing
*Electrical Infrastructure Strategy: Lead the long-term strategy for our HV and LV networks, assessing current and future demand, identifying constraints and defining the upgrades needed to support village developments and business growth.
*Major Capital Project Delivery: Plan, design and deliver complex electrical infrastructure projects across six live operational villages, controlling programme, budget, risk and compliance while coordinating consultants, contractors and internal teams.
*Network Capacity & Connections: Work with DNOs, IDNOs and other partners to secure new or increased power connections, then determine how that supply is distributed safely, reliably and efficiently across each village.
*Asset Lifecycle, Risk & Resilience: Develop condition-led lifecycle and capital plans, maintain accurate asset information and prioritise investment to improve reliability, resilience, maintainability and business continuity.
*Low-Carbon Infrastructure: Assess and support opportunities including large-scale Solar PV, floating solar, Battery Energy Storage Systems and energy-from-waste, balancing technical, operational, environmental and commercial considerations.
*Standards & Technical Governance: Own electrical infrastructure standards and specifications, ensuring projects meet CDM, electrical, legislative and company requirements while providing specialist guidance to village and project teams.
