What might a typical day look like?

As you’ll be joining a small close-knit team, there’ll be lots to get involved with. However, the main responsibilities will lie within supporting the Design & Estimation team, and also in CAD related tasks. Some of the things you might get up to in a typical day could include;

• Catching up with the team and finding out if there is anything urgent project wise that you might need to help with
• Working with CAD drawings, putting together layouts, adding annotations, integrating line sketches into drawings
• Maintaining SoR pricing on templates to ensure they are up to date and accurate
• Identifying any potential clashes on CAD drawings, and coordinating with the team to ensure the projects run smoothly
• Maintaining prebuilds on their systems (simPRO & Groundplan), in line with client specifications

This is just a brief list of what you might be getting up to in this role, we can provide a more detailed job description further into the recruitment process. But at this stage we are just looking for someone who is keen to join a small team, willing to learn with fantastic attention to detail and who loves working with numbers!

Who might be an ideal candidate?

Whilst having experience using CAD would be a plus, we are open to talking to candidates who are quick to pick up new systems, however what isn’t negotiable is that you must be an Excel expert. Spreadsheets and the manipulation of the same are a key element of this role!

This role might be for you if...

• You’re a recent graduate with studies in Building Services or Electrical Engineering
• You're already working within the industry but looking for a close-knit team as opposed to being one of hundreds
• You have some engineering or electrical experience, and you’re just starting out in the MEP field

This is a full-time office-based position, the working hours can either be 7.30am-4.30pm, or 8.30am - 5.30pm.
