These range from the refurbishment of some of the UK’s most famous historic sights, to state of the art brand new facilities for universities and pioneering scientific research institutes. Variety for us is key, one day you could be surveying a timeless Cotswold manor house, the next you may be working on a three dimensional model in BIM for a new performing arts school.

Duties will include undertaking survey work and the production of feasibility reports, full design and specification for a wide range of mechanical systems in buildings in a number of different sectors including healthcare, education, private and public housing, commercial and retail.

Initially the role will be under the guidance of a Principal Engineer, however as you develop, you will increasingly be responsible for visiting a wide variety of sites to undertake feasibility surveys, attend site progress meetings and review installations. Working closely with other team members, you will see projects through from inception to completion and handover.
