## Job description

We are seeking a detail-oriented and proactive QA/QC Engineer to support the delivery of a large-scale data centre project. While experience within data centres is beneficial, it is not required.

Ensure all works conform to project requirements and relevant standards. Witness and sign off on MEP testing and commissioning activities. Identify issues, raise non-conformance reports (NCRs), and ensure corrective actions are implemented. Coordination & Communication Work closely with construction managers, commissioning teams, consultants, and subcontractors to ensure quality expectations are met. Participate in quality meetings, coordination sessions, and client walkdowns. Support the preparation of handover documentation including O&M manuals, redlines/as-builts, and test reports. Continuous Improvement Assist in developing and improving quality processes across the project. Provide feedback and lessons learned to support ongoing project quality enhancement. Education & Experience Degree or technical qualification in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Building Services Engineering, or related field. Experience working in construction, commercial buildings, industrial plants, or MEP contracting.

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: The Global Certification & Verification (GCV) Group is an independent lifecycle assurance partner for mission-critical infrastructure, bringing together specialist businesses across commissioning, safety, verification, and certification.
- **Entity Type**: Private (founded 2026)
- **Headquarters**: London, United Kingdom
- **Founded**: 2026
- **Founders**: Louis Charlton (Group CEO) and Dover Charlton (Group Managing Director) [linkedin.com](https://linkedin.com/company/global-certification-and-verification)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Mission-critical infrastructure assurance (data centres, energy, high-voltage electrical systems)
- **Target customers**: B2B, enterprise (data centre operators, hyperscale developers, energy infrastructure owners, regulators)
- **Mission or purpose**: To provide a “golden thread of independent assurance” across the full infrastructure lifecycle – from design and energisation through to commissioning, integrated systems testing, and long-term operational readiness [gcv-group.com/about](https://www.gcv-group.com/about)

## Products & Services
Each entity within the GCV Group operates independently as a specialist in its discipline:

- **[Global Commissioning](https://www.gcv-group.com/global-commissioning)**: Independent commissioning authority operating across EMEA. Services include Commissioning Management (CxM), Commissioning Agent (CxA), integrated systems testing (Level 5 IST), and evidence-based certification for data centres and critical infrastructure.
- **[AEP Global](https://www.gcv-group.com/)**: Independent specialist in safe systems of work (SSOW), high-voltage electrical services, and authorised person solutions for safety-critical energy and infrastructure.
- **[Core](https://www.gcv-group.com/)**: Independent commissioning specialists operating in the UAE, supporting compliance and assurance across safety-critical infrastructure.
- **[NorthFox](https://www.gcv-group.com/)**: Independent commissioning and completions specialists delivering mission-critical project assurance across data centre infrastructure (joined the group in 2026).

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available
- **Key Metric**: Total funding – Not publicly available (privately held, no disclosed funding rounds)
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly available. The group is formed from independent specialist companies; no external investors disclosed.
- **Growth Signals**: Founded in 2026 and quickly assembled a group of four specialist businesses. In May 2026, NorthFox joined the group [linkedin.com](https://linkedin.com/company/global-certification-and-verification). Headcount is currently small (5 employees at the group level), but the subsidiaries bring additional engineering teams. The careers page lists active on-site roles across London, Brussels, Abu Dhabi, and Milan, indicating early-stage expansion [jobs.lever.co](https://jobs.lever.co/global-cxm).

## Competitive Advantages
- **True independence**: The group has no allegiance to contractors, manufacturers, or suppliers, ensuring unbiased assessments trusted by insurers and regulators.
- **Specialist depth**: Each subsidiary is a market leader in its discipline (commissioning, HV safety, certification) rather than a generalist body, providing technical rigour.
- **Cross-discipline alignment**: Risks at the boundaries between disciplines are managed through a shared framework and single thread of accountability, reducing knowledge loss during handovers.

## Strategic Focus
- **Expand the group**: Continue to acquire or partner with niche specialist firms across the infrastructure lifecycle.
- **Scale operations**: Grow the talent pool and geographic footprint (current roles in UK, EU, UAE) to meet demand from hyperscale data centre and energy projects.
- **Deepen lifecycle assurance**: Strengthen the “golden thread” from design validation through to operational readiness, particularly as AI and extreme power density increase infrastructure complexity.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Certified as a **Great Place to Work UK** (2026) [linkedin.com](https://linkedin.com/company/global-certification-and-verification). The group emphasises collaboration, trust, and transparency, with a founding principle of independence.
- **Work model**: The founding entity operates with a small central team; roles are predominantly on-site at client locations (data centres, substations) across the UK (London, Newcastle), Europe (Brussels, Milan), and the UAE (Abu Dhabi). Remote/hybrid options are not currently indicated.
- **Notable perks**: 50% of the central team are C-level or director-level, offering exposure to strategic growth. Engineers will work on high-impact mission-critical projects for the world’s largest digital infrastructure operators.
