Auto Cad jobs in United Kingdom

Our client is an innovative and rapidly expanding business based in the UK, aiming to invest in and implement over £1 billion worth of heat network projects in the upcoming years. They provide funding, design, construction, operation and maintenance of low carbon district energy networks and building energy systems for communities, towns and cities. Their collaborations include local authorities, developers, house builders and property owners.

They aim to take the lead in decarbonising at the city level. They acknowledge that the decarbonisation of heating and the built environment represents one of the final areas with clear solutions, and this is where their focus lies, along with the allocation of their investments and resources.

They are a forward‑thinking company driven by innovative design and proactive intelligence, seeking individuals who can analyse problems and look beyond challenges. Their goal is to lead in both commercial and technical innovation, and they invite team members to join them on this journey.

• The design and installation of a heat network in a rural community to replace oil boilers in 300 homes with centralised low carbon heat generation.
• The design and installation of a ground source heat pump system to provide heating and cooling to a new development of 300 homes, a gym and office building.
• The design, installation and operation of a new city centre wide low carbon district heating system.
• Developing detailed long‑term decarbonisation plans for existing large‑scale district heating networks to allow them to transition from gas‑fired CHP‑led generation to low carbon generation.

They are committed to an honest and collaborative approach to all work, to being innovative in everything they do, always looking for better ways to do things and avoiding the business curses of unnecessary complexity and silos.

They are a young, friendly business in the rapidly growing low carbon energy sector, providing significant opportunities for career flexibility and development.

They focus on delivering bespoke solutions with positive outcomes for the communities they serve.

Our client is seeking a highly flexible, self‑starting Electrical Design Engineer with experience in the design of Electrical Building Services. The location of the post will be Sheffield or London depending on your preference. The role is to support the design and growth of heat network infrastructure in the UK, so you may also be to visit prospective and active construction sites throughout the UK from time to time, as necessary.

The nature of the business and their rapid growth means that the candidate has significant opportunity to develop their career in a friendly environment and progress as the company grows. They are looking to develop teams of engineers that will be able to grow into designing a variety of energy related systems. It is anticipated, therefore, that the candidate would be seeking to broaden their skills horizon.

This position will differ from conventional design responsibilities in that the Engineer will be given the opportunity to help ‘own’ design projects from inception through to operation. Following the handover to their Operations Team, the engineer will continue to monitor and evaluate feedback from the Operations Team to help refine and improve the design and all future designs.

Participating on the design and delivery of new energy projects during the pre‑construction and construction phases working with and supported by the wider Team. In more detail this will include:

• Assist in the evaluation of project scope and design inception.
• The production of detailed drawings, reports, calculations and specifications for different RIBA stages.
• Surveying and evaluating existing buildings energy systems.
• Coordinating the work of others and coordinating work with engineers of other discipline.
• Involvement in energy centre electrical services design.

They are looking for an enthusiastic Engineer with excellent electrical engineering design, technical, and software skills who enjoys working collaboratively in dynamic multi‑professional teams, assisting in all aspects of the delivery of projects from inception to completion to achieve outstanding results.

You will be able to show you have had recent experience in this design area, and you will have a keen interest in the field of Energy Engineering Systems for domestic, commercial and industrial buildings. You will have a keen eye for detail and be technically proficient.

They will want you to join their journey toward a more environmentally and technically responsible and effective way of designing energy systems, moving away from conventional processes into a more innovative and free‑thinking design environment.
