Key responsibilities include:

• Developing mechanical design concepts and detailed design solutions

• Taking responsibility for technical and financial decisions on assigned projects


• Undertaking site surveys and preparing detailed mechanical condition and compliance reports


• Ensuring compliance with British Standards, Building Regulations and Codes of Practice


• Carrying out energy assessments and evaluating system performance


• Coordinating with other disciplines and understanding cross-discipline design parameters


• Assisting in the preparation of drawings using CAD


• Managing workload effectively to meet programme deadlines


• Exercising independent technical judgement with limited supervision

About You:

• A Degree in Mechanical or Building Services Engineering (HNC/HND with strong design experience will also be considered)

• The ability to work independently and take ownership of projects

Benefits:

• Exposure to varied and technically interesting Healthcare & Education projects


• Supportive, collaborative team environment


• Genuine career development opportunities


• Hybrid working (4 office / 1 home)


• Stable business with long-term project pipeline
