High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) is becoming the backbone of long-distance and offshore power transmission, moving electricity further and more efficiently than traditional AC networks allow. As offshore wind and interconnected grids scale up, the specialist engineers who design, commission, and maintain HVDC systems are in short supply, and the skill set is highly specific.
Brunel places HVDC design engineers, converter station specialists, protection and control engineers, and commissioning engineers across HVDC transmission programmes. We reach candidates who understand both power systems engineering and the specific demands of HVDC technology, candidates that general electrical recruiters simply do not find.

$name
HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) transmission moves electricity over long distances or across water with far less energy loss than standard AC systems, but it relies on converter stations and control systems that most general power engineers haven't worked with. That makes HVDC talent a genuinely narrow, specialist pool.
$name
We place HVDC design engineers, converter station specialists, protection and control engineers, and commissioning engineers, covering the full project lifecycle from design through to energisation.
$name
Yes. Offshore wind connections increasingly rely on HVDC links, and we source engineers with direct experience in offshore converter platforms and subsea cable systems, alongside onshore HVDC work.
$name
A general power recruiter is usually working from a broad AC-focused talent pool. We focus specifically on candidates who understand HVDC converter technology and control systems, which most electrical engineers haven't been exposed to.
$name
The number of HVDC projects globally is growing much faster than the pool of engineers with genuine converter station and control system experience, so demand is consistently outpacing supply.
$name
Yes. We recruit commissioning engineers experienced in HVDC energisation, testing, and fault diagnosis, roles that require hands-on converter station experience most general commissioning engineers don't have.
