We are working with a key delivery partner supporting Yorkshire Water projects to appoint a Lead Commissioning Engineer with strong Mechanical, Electrical, and Process (MEP) experience. This is a pivotal role leading the commissioning strategy and overseeing the end-to-end MEP delivery across a portfolio of water infrastructure schemes.

Develop and implement robust commissioning strategies aligned with programme timelines, safety requirements, and operational objectives.
*
Ensure cohesive integration between design, installation, and commissioning phases to maximise engineering value.
*
Maintain compliance with internal quality and safety systems; analyse health and safety data and drive improvements.
*
Coordinate MEP planning across all phases — design, install, test, commission, and handover.
*
Oversee MEP resourcing, competency, and forward planning for all regional schemes.
*
Lead regular coordination and performance review meetings with key subcontract partners.
Requirements:
*
HNC or Degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Process Engineering (or equivalent experience).
*
Proven background in MEP delivery and commissioning within civil infrastructure, ideally water.
*
ECS and SMSTS (or willingness to complete training).

Full UK driving licence and flexibility to travel across the Yorkshire region.
Benefits Include:
*
Competitive salary with company vehicle or car allowance
