Job description

Join an engineering consultancy shaping the future of building services!

Is this you?
You're a qualified Electrical Engineer or Technologist with 2-3 years of experience in building services within a consulting engineering environment. You're confident in electrical system design, from concept to completion, and understand the requirements for delivering coordinated, compliant designs. You work well in a team, communicate clearly with clients and contractors, and take pride in producing technically sound, practical solutions.

What you'll be doing
You'll support the Lead Engineer and design teams across building services projects, preparing detailed designs, compiling technical documents and specifications, managing contracts, and liaising with clients. Your days will include collaborating with project teams, translating concepts into technical drawings, conducting site visits, and ensuring projects stay on track and up to standard. You'll also work closely with Revit and CAD teams to deliver coordinated designs using modern workflows.

Where you'll be doing it
You'll be based at their offices in Century City, being part of a well-established engineering consultancy with offices across South Africa. Known for its professional delivery, the firm boasts a strong team-oriented culture, open-door leadership, and a relaxed, close-knit working environment. You'll enjoy the team braais, a supportive work atmosphere, and the chance to work on high-impact projects across commercial, healthcare, and education sectors.

What you'll need
You'll need a BTech, BEng or National Diploma in Electrical Engineering and 2-3 years consulting experience. Familiarity with Revit workflows will be a plus. Strong communication skills in both English and Afrikaans are essential. A hands-on, solution-oriented mindset and previous building services design experience will make you a great fit.

What's in it for you
A market-related salary and a performance-based bonus (not guaranteed). You'll start with 20 days of annual leave, which increases with tenure, and benefit from a December shutdown period. The company fosters a supportive environment with open-door leadership, encouraging collaboration and professional growth. Regular team events, such as braais, contribute to a close-knit and enjoyable workplace culture. You'll also have opportunities to work on diverse projects across Africa and the Middle East, enhancing your experience in various sectors.
