  • Senior Electrical Engineer at Timbuktu Holdings Limited

    ABOUT TIMBUKTU
    Timbuktu is an independent solar energy company delivering commercial and industrial PV and storage projects across Zambia and the region. We design and build systems that work — reliably, safely, and on time. Our team is small, technically serious, and growing.
    THE ROLE
    We need an experienced Electrical Engineer who has grown into — or is ready to step fully into — a project and operations management role. You understand how solar projects are built, you can read a design and spot a problem, and you know how to run a team that is spread across multiple sites.
    This role is the link between the technical work and the business outcome. You will manage project delivery, coordinate field teams, manage subcontractors, handle client relationships, and ensure that what we promise gets built correctly and on time.
    WHAT YOU WILL DO

    Lead the delivery of solar PV and storage projects from contract signature through to final handover
    Plan and manage project schedules, budgets, and resource allocation across concurrent projects
    Manage and coordinate field teams, local subcontractors, and specialist vendors
    Hold regular site visits to monitor quality, progress, and safety compliance
    Act as the primary client point of contact during project execution
    Review and approve designs, submittals, and technical documentation
    Identify and manage variation orders, delays, and commercial risks
    Report project status to senior management clearly and on time
    Contribute to operational procedures, team training, and continuous improvement
    Travel to project sites across Zambia and the region regularly

    WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

    Degree in Electrical Engineering (B ENG or equivalent)
    5–15 years of experience, with at least 3 years in a project management or site leadership role
    Solid technical background in solar PV, power systems, or electrical construction — you can have a credible technical conversation and you know when something is wrong
    Proven ability to manage teams, subcontractors, and client relationships simultaneously
    Strong commercial awareness — you understand contracts, variations, and project cost control
    Clear communicator: written reports, client meetings, and site briefings all need to land
    Organised under pressure — multiple projects, competing priorities, imperfect information
    Valid driver’s licence

    Experience in Sub-Saharan Africa is a genuine advantage here. We are open to all nationalities. English is the working language.
    COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
    We offer an expat package structured around your experience and situation. We are flexible on how the package is structured and it is negotiable.
    WORKING ARRANGEMENTS

    Based in Lusaka with regular travel to sites (domestic and regional)
    Full-time, permanent position
    Standard working hours — with the reality that active projects set their own schedule
