Job Description
Senior Mechanical Engineer – Lead a Major Project from Start to Finish
Salary: Excellent salary and package – travel and lodge provided if required
Be the driving force behind a landmark project.
We’re looking for a Senior Mechanical Engineer to take full ownership of the mechanical delivery on a major new scheme starting late 2025. This is an opportunity to step into a brand-new role, leading the project from the earliest planning stages right through to completion.
You’ll join an experienced and supportive team, working alongside a Project Director who will give you the freedom to shape and lead the mechanical package from cradle to grave.
About Us
Mech Electrics Limited is a specialist recruitment company dedicated to providing skilled engineering and commercial professionals to major projects within the built environment.
We’re working closely with one of our key & valued clients, a highly respected contractor with a strong pipeline of complex, high-value projects. This role has been created specifically to bring in a dedicated mechanical lead to ensure this project’s success.
What We’re Looking For
We need someone with a strong track record of delivering MEP projects within the built environment, ideally with overall project values exceeding £8M.
*
If you’ve worked for a larger contractor, you should have experience acting as the mechanical lead on complex, high-value projects.
*
If you’ve been with a smaller contractor, managing full turnkey MEP projects as a Project Manager, we’d love to hear from you too — especially if you’re ready to focus purely on mechanical delivery for a major scheme.
This is a fantastic opportunity to step into a role where you can make a huge impact and take complete ownership of the mechanical side of the project.
The Role
*
Take charge of all mechanical works, from early planning and design coordination through to project handover
*
Ensure every stage of the project meets the highest standards of safety, quality, and compliance with UK regulations and client requirements
*
Collaborate with design teams and clients to refine and optimise designs, creating safe, efficient, and practical solutions
*
Manage key project processes, including progress tracking, risk management, change control, and quality assurance
*
Lead, mentor, and support the mechanical team, setting clear expectations and fostering a collaborative, positive environment
*
Build strong relationships with clients, subcontractors, and colleagues, ensuring excellent communication and smooth problem-solving
*
Keep the project on track financially and programme-wise, delivering on time, on budget, and in line with commercial and quality targets
*
Maintain accurate records and documentation for all mechanical works, using strong decision-making to balance technical, commercial, and safety needs
*
Promote a proactive health and safety culture, ensuring safe working practices are a priority across the site
What’s on Offer
*
Excellent salary and package
*
Travel and lodge provided for candidates who live further afield but are happy to stay away during the week
*
The chance to join a highly skilled, supportive team on a project you’ll be proud to deliver
*
A genuine opportunity to shape the role, leading the mechanical delivery from start to finish
