Shape the Future of Smart Buildings in Central London

What if your designs were behind some of the UK’s most advanced and high-profile commercial spaces? If you’re an experienced BMS Design Engineer ready for a new challenge, this is your chance to lead the technical strategy across landmark developments in Central London.

This role places you at the forefront of multi-million-pound building management system projects—bringing precision, performance, and intelligent control to life through thoughtful, coordinated engineering. You’ll be embedded within a highly skilled major projects team that thrives on collaboration, autonomy, and a shared drive for excellence.

You’ll own the entire BMS design process from concept through to delivery. That means full control over technical documentation, equipment specifications, procurement, and design quality, all while working in sync with the project manager and wider team. Your influence won’t just be technical—it’ll be strategic.

This is a high-impact position offering long-term career progression. You’ll be surrounded by forward-thinking engineers who share knowledge, celebrate innovation, and support your development—whether you’re looking to hone your design capabilities or step up into future leadership.

Key Responsibilities:

• Take full ownership of the BMS design across major commercial developments
• Deliver point schedules, equipment specifications, network layouts, and description of operations
• Manage equipment procurement in line with design requirements
• Align design output with project timelines through close collaboration with the project team
• Accurately interpret MEP drawings, electrical schematics and control diagrams
• Uphold design excellence under pressure and within tight timeframes
• Maintain clear documentation, trackers and design logs
• Provide technical support with a professional, client-focused approach

What You’ll Bring:

• Solid experience as a BMS Design Engineer
• Familiarity with Trend or Schneider StruxureWare (training can be provided for Siemens, Tridium, or Distech users)
• Understanding of electrical, air and hydraulic systems
• Experience in metering and third-party system integration (desirable)
• Proficiency with electrical/control schematics and system diagrams
• High attention to detail and commitment to quality
• Strong communication and teamwork skills
• Positive approach to Health & Safety
• Flexibility to attend Central London sites when needed

If you're ready to design smarter buildings and shape the next generation of intelligent environments, this is the role that will put your expertise in the spotlight—and your future firmly on track.

What’s in it for you

• A competitive salary package, with strong earning potential through a generous bonus scheme
• Additional standby allowance and regular opportunities for overtime
• Access to a flexible company car scheme, including the option for fully electric vehicles — or take a monthly car allowance if you prefer to use your own vehicle
• After 12 months, you'll have the opportunity to become part of an employee-owned business
• A contributory pension scheme with 6% employer contributions to help support your future
• Free private medical insurance to give you and your family added peace of mind
• Life assurance valued at four times your annual salary
• 25 days of annual leave plus public holidays, with the chance to buy up to 3 extra days each year
• Access to Cyclescheme (up to £2,500) to help you stay active and commute sustainably
