Design & Build | Commercial Fit-Out | Leadership Opportunity

We're working with a fast-growing Design & Build contractor delivering high-quality M&E solutions across commercial office fit-out projects. Established just 5 years ago, the business is already turning over £7-8m and building a strong reputation in the CAT A & CAT B space.

They're now looking for a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to take ownership of mechanical design and play a pivotal role in shaping their in-house M&E design capability.

  • Lead the mechanical design delivery across multiple fit-out projects
  • Act as the technical lead, troubleshooting and driving engineering quality
  • Take ownership of client engagement and design coordination
  • Manage and mentor a small team of engineers (with plans to grow)
  • Help shape and scale the M&E design department


What They're Looking For

  • Strong background in mechanical building services design
  • Proven experience delivering CAT A & CAT B office fit-out projects
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced Design & Build environment (highly desirable)
  • Ability to lead projects technically and commercially
  • Experience managing or mentoring engineers
  • Confidently engaging directly with clients and stakeholders


Why Join?

  • Genuine opportunity to build a team and influence the business
  • Work closely with senior leadership in a growing company
  • Exposure to a strong pipeline of commercial fit-out projects
  • Clear pathway into further leadership positions


This is a genuinely unique opportunity for an ambitious individual to lead, shape and grow a wider engineering department within a growing contractor.

Whether you're working in the larger corporate companies or a small SME this is certainly one to take note of. Please don't hesitate to apply or get in touch for further info on the email below, we can arrange a confidential conversation anytime to suit you.
