Job description

Mechanical Design Engineer - London to £50K+ Package

Design better places. Think differently. Make an impact.

Talent Motion is representing a multidiscipline consultancy that believes engineering can do more than make buildings work. It can make places healthier, more sustainable and better for the people who use them.

We’re looking for a Mechanical Engineer to join their growing Building Services team.

This is an opportunity to work on genuinely interesting projects, alongside civil, structural, transport, sustainability, environmental and other built-environment specialists – giving you the chance to think beyond your own discipline and see the bigger picture.

What will you be doing?

You’ll be involved in the design and delivery of Mechanical Building Services across a diverse range of projects and sectors that focus heavily on Heritage projects.

• Mechanical building services design from concept through to delivery
• HVAC, and Low-Carbon building systems
• New-Build and Retrofit projects (Heritage focus)
• Workplace, Hospitality and Mixed-Use developments
• Sustainable and energy-efficient design solutions
• Coordinating your designs with architects, structural engineers and other consultants
• Developing designs through the RIBA stages
• Supporting junior engineers and contributing to the wider team

But this isn’t simply a role where you’ll be given a package of drawings and asked to get on with it.

We want engineers who are curious.

Engineers who ask why?

Engineers who challenge conventional thinking.

Engineers who enjoy solving problems collaboratively.

Engineers who want their work to have a positive impact.

Why?

The team deliver genuinely integrated designs, bringing together engineering, sustainability, transport, environment, heritage, placemaking and community engagement to understand projects as interconnected systems.

That means you’ll work alongside people with different expertise and perspectives – and have the opportunity to learn from them.

They also take career development seriously.

Your career path is designed around you. They support professional qualifications and Chartership, provide mentoring and CPD, and recognise that everyone’s route through their career is different.

Who are we looking for?

We’re interested in hearing from Mechanical Engineers who have:

• A degree or qualification in Mechanical Engineering or Building Services Engineering
• Experience within a building services consultancy environment
• Good knowledge of Mechanical Building Services Design
• An understanding of relevant UK standards and regulations
• Experience using appropriate design and engineering software
• The ability to communicate effectively with clients and other members of a project team
• A genuine interest in sustainable and low-carbon engineering

You don’t need to tick every box.

If you’re an ambitious Mechanical Engineer who wants to develop, you will be given the opportunity to do it.

More than a job

A people focused business, with a heavy focus on teamwork, multiple social events throughout the year that celebrate success and hard work. They want people to be able to do their best work while maintaining a healthy balance outside of it.

Offering flexible/hybrid working, mentoring, continuous learning and development, and multiple routes for career progression.

Most importantly, you’ll be joining a business where everyone has a voice, collaboration is encouraged and people are trusted to help shape their own careers.

Ready to think differently?

If you’re a Mechanical Engineer looking for your next challenge – whether you’re an experienced Engineer ready to take the next step or an ambitious engineer looking to develop your career – we’d like to hear from you.
