About the Role

Want to design the systems that power mission-critical data centres?

We’re looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join a growing, technically strong building services team delivering complex, high-performance projects across the UK.

If you enjoy solving real engineering problems, working on cutting-edge environments, and seeing your designs come to life — this could be the move.

 

What’s in it for you?
  • Competitive salary + performance-related bonus
  • Private healthcare options + pension scheme
  • Support towards Chartership (CIBSE/IMechE)
  • Exposure to high-value, technically challenging projects (including data centres)
  • Clear progression pathway in a growing consultancy
  • Hybrid working + strong work-life balance
  • Paid professional memberships + CPD support

 

The Role

You’ll be involved in the full lifecycle of mechanical design, from concept through to delivery, working closely with multidisciplinary teams.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Designing HVAC and mechanical building services systems for a range of projects
  • Producing detailed calculations, specifications, and technical drawings
  • Using industry-standard design software to develop efficient solutions
  • Collaborating with clients, architects, and engineers to deliver coordinated designs
  • Ensuring compliance with UK regulations, standards, and best practice
  • Supporting project delivery from concept through to construction

You’ll play a key role in delivering energy-efficient, high-performance buildings, with a focus on reliability and sustainability

  What they’re looking for
  • Degree in Mechanical Engineering or Building Services Engineering
  • Experience in mechanical design within building services
  • Strong knowledge of HVAC systems and design principles
  • Familiarity with design software (e.g. CAD/Revit)
  • Understanding of UK Building Regulations and industry standards
  • Ability to work both independently and as part of a team

Desirable

  • Experience working on data centre or mission-critical projects
  • Progressing towards or already holding Chartership

(Data centre exposure is highly valued due to the complexity and resilience requirements of these environments.)

  Why this role stands out

You won’t just be another engineer producing drawings — you’ll be part of a team delivering technically demanding, high-impact projects, where your input genuinely shapes the outcome.
