Job description

Intermediate Mechanical Design Engineer - London

Are you a Mechanical Design Engineer with two to three years of experience under your belt, specifically within residential and commercial projects? If you're looking for a role where you can take ownership and carve out a clear path for your career progression, this could be the perfect next step for you.

Role and Responsibilities

Join a dynamic and diverse building services consultancy that excels in tackling complex projects, often re-engineering designs from later stages to ensure successful delivery. While the London office has a formidable reputation in the fast-paced data centre sector, this role is crucial for bolstering the team focused on significant new residential and commercial schemes.

As the new Intermediate Mechanical Engineer, you'll be based in the London office with a hybrid model requiring a minimum of two days in the office per week. Your primary focus will be on delivering key residential projects, taking on design responsibilities with initial guidance from the senior team. The goal is for you to quickly grow in autonomy, allowing you to stand on your own feet and become an integral part of the team's success, paving the way for a clear career path to a senior level.

Salary range

A competitive salary of £35,000 - £45,000 is on offer, with flexibility to push towards £50,000 for an exceptional candidate with the right blend of experience and ambition.

Benefit package

You'll have access to a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your professional and personal wellbeing, within a company that values its employees.

 

Company culture

This is a culture built on growth. The plan isn't just to fill a seat, but to find someone to nurture and develop into a future Senior Engineer and beyond. You'll be joining a close-knit team of around 22 in the London office, contributing to a collaborative and supportive environment.

What you'll need

·A degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related building services field.
·At least 2-3 years of experience in mechanical building services design.
·Proven project experience within the residential and/or commercial sectors.
·The ambition and drive to develop towards a Senior Engineer position.
·Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.

This is more than just a job; it's a clear pathway to advancing your career in a supportive and forward-thinking environment.
