Process Engineer – Renewable Energy

A growing and innovative engineering business specialising in anaerobic digestion (AD) technology is looking for a Process Engineer to join the team.Along with a salary of up to £35,000 per annum, you will receive a range of benefits including private healthcare, a pension scheme, ongoing investment and training, generous annual leave with service-based increases and expenses covered on occasional overnight stays. There may be flexibility/WFH options once initial training has been completed. 

You’ll join a friendly, expert team that supports AD plants across the UK—designing solutions for new installations, optimising existing sites, and improving plant safety and performance through best-in-class engineering.

As Process Engineer, your responsibilities will include:

Creating design solutions for AD plants including calculations, P&IDs, and process flow diagrams.
Working closely with clients to capture requirements and translate them into practical design specs.
Selecting pumps, valves, and instrumentation, and documenting all specifications using your knowledge of process engineering principles.
Conducting and documenting site-based safety assessments in line with DSEAR regulations.
Carrying out full site surveys, overseeing equipment installations, and supporting the successful commissioning of process systems.
Contributing throughout the project lifecycle—from scoping and design through to build, install, and final testing.
What we’re looking for?

A degree in Process, Chemical or Mechanical Engineering (or equivalent practical experience).
Previous experience in process engineering—preferably in anaerobic digestion, wastewater, or related sectors.
A good grasp of instrumentation, pumping systems, and engineering drawings (AutoCAD 2D is useful).
Confidence producing engineering calculations (e.g., head loss, pump sizing).
The ability to create and interpret P&IDs and other technical documentation.
Comfortability travelling to client sites (overnight stays on occasion, with all expenses covered).
Strong communication skills with an interest in delivering sustainable engineering solutions.
If you're passionate about sustainability and want to play a key part in the renewable energy sector, this role offers the chance to work on a wide range of technically fascinating projects, from initial site surveys and safety assessments through to detailed process design and plant commissioning.
