Are you a Mechanical Building Services Engineer looking for interesting, high-end projects without the high-pressure consultancy culture?
We're recruiting for an established M&E Building Services Design Consultancy that has been operating for over 40 years. With an incredibly long-standing team, a relaxed working environment and genuine progression opportunities, this is a business people join and stay with.
You'll work on an impressive portfolio of projects including luxury residential developments, prestigious hotels, large country estates and high-end commercial spaces, alongside renewable technologies including air and ground-source systems.

• Producing designs using AutoCAD, with Revit experience advantageous
• Attending project meetings and liaising with clients when required
• Supporting and mentoring less experienced engineers
• Working alongside Mechanical, Electrical, CAD and Revit specialists

What we're looking for:
You'll be an experienced Mechanical Building Services Engineer who is confident, technically capable and comfortable working independently.
Ideally you'll have:

• Strong Mechanical Building Services design experience
• Experience with IES, Cymap and AutoCAD
• Mechanical Engineering degree or equivalent
• CIBSE membership / Chartered status advantageous
• Revit / AutoCAD 3D experience beneficial
• Ground or air-source / renewables experience advantageous
• A positive, practical and collaborative approach

While this is a Senior-level opportunity, we're also open to speaking with strong Intermediate Engineers ready to take the next step, with a genuine pathway towards Principal Engineer.

What's on offer?
£53,000 - £65,000 DOE
5 days' holiday, healthcare
Hybrid working following probation
Flexible start times
Training and development
Mileage/expenses
Regular team socials

Most importantly, this is a business that genuinely values work-life balance. People leave on time and are actively encouraged to switch off outside working hours.
If you're looking for quality projects, autonomy, progression and a genuinely enjoyable working environment, we'd love to hear from you.
