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

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