Job description

The Team

The world’s first engineering consultant to be certified carbon neutral, Cundall’s mission is to provide a pathway to net-zero-carbon for all the buildings we design. We need engineers who share this passion for sustainability to design energy efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective buildings.

Winners of the 2021 CIBSE Innovation Award, Cundall are at the forefront of the industry, priding ourselves on our exemplary track record of designing innovative and sustainable mechanical and electrical solutions that minimise the use of natural resources.

Our Building Services team is a source of world-leading expertise and offers a proactive and collaborative approach to skill development and professional excellence.

The Role

This is an excellent opportunity for a skilled electrical engineer to join our team at our Edinburgh office to play a key role in ensuring the successful delivery of innovative electrical design solutions for some of the most exciting building projects in the UK and internationally.

Working across a variety of sectors including Government, Critical Systems, Healthcare, Rail, Workplace, and Residential, you will work in a team of expert engineers and technicians and closely with colleagues of various disciplines to help manage the delivery of technically excellent, profitable projects for high-profile public and private clients.

You’ll have the opportunity over time to assume greater levels of responsibility and autonomy as your professional skills develop, and with accredited professional development programmes from CIBSE and IET, you’ll be fully supported towards achieving chartership.

The Skills

Educated to degree level in Electrical or Building Services Engineering (MEng or BEng or equivalent), and having gained relevant experience within a consultancy environment (design and coordination of electrical distribution and power generation, lighting, security systems, etc.), you are already well versed in the use of relevant design software including Amtech and ideally, Dialux.

You have a proven ability in producing low energy design solutions, carrying out site inspections and surveys, detail design development, and crucially – you have a passion for creative and intuitive design.

Given the collaborative and client-focused nature of this role, excellent communication skills and experience of using your initiative to overcome challenges are essential.
