Control & Instrumentation Engineer
Location: Guilford
Energy | Functional Safety | Process Control Systems
If you are a C&I Engineer who enjoys being close to operations rather than sitting behind a desk all day, this is an opportunity to take ownership of functional safety, instrumentation, and control system improvements across a live industrial facility.
This role combines engineering design, functional safety leadership, project delivery, and hands-on operational support within a complex process environment.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Site-based role with real operational involvement
- Functional Safety activities and SIS lifecycle management
- Mix of design, project, commissioning, and troubleshooting work
- Ownership of instrumentation and control system improvements
- Opportunity to influence asset reliability and plant performance
Key Responsibilities
- Acting as the site focal point for Functional Safety and SIS compliance
- Leading SIL assessments, SIL verification, and Safety Requirement Specifications (SRS) development
- Designing and implementing control system and instrumentation upgrades
- Specifying instrumentation including pressure, flow, level, temperature, and analytical equipment
- Supporting hazardous area compliance and instrumentation design reviews
- Managing SIS, PLC, and control system modification projects
- Supporting commissioning, testing, and start-up activities
- Providing technical support for operational issues, fault finding, and root cause analysis
- Reviewing vendor packages and technical documentation
- Working closely with operations, maintenance, and engineering teams to improve plant performance
Requirements
- HNC, Degree, or equivalent qualification in Control, Instrumentation, Electrical, or related Engineering discipline
- Strong experience with Functional Safety standards IEC 61508 and IEC 61511
- Experience with Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) and SIL verification activities
- Knowledge of hazardous area regulations and BS EN 60079 standards
- Experience specifying and commissioning field instrumentation and control systems
- Background within energy, oil & gas, chemicals, industrial gases, power generation, or other process industries
- Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving capability
- Comfortable working directly with plant operations and maintenance teams
Contract Type: Permanent
Work Schedule: Site-based
Take the next step to influence asset reliability and plant performance in a dynamic operational environment. Apply now to join the team as a Control & Instrumentation Engineer.
