Are you ready to make a real impact on the world through your work?
We are working with a client seeking an experienced Principal or Associate Mechanical Engineer to join a high-performing, collaborative team working at the forefront of Data Centre and Mission Critical design. The role can be based from any regional hub in England or Scotland. This is a unique opportunity to shape some of the most technically challenging and high-profile data infrastructure projects in the UK and across EMEA.
Whether it's designing cutting-edge mechanical systems or influencing the direction of world-class engineering solutions, your expertise will be central to projects that matter-today and for the future.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Work on Landmark Projects: Join a team delivering pioneering Data Centre and Mission Critical projects across the UK and EMEA, with a growing pipeline of enterprise and colocation clients.
- International Exposure: Collaborate across borders, contributing to sophisticated engineering challenges at a global level.
- Shape the Sector: Be a thought leader in the evolving data infrastructure space-this is an opportunity to influence technical direction in a sector that's expanding rapidly.
- Flexible Location: Choose to be based anywhere in the UK, with flexible working options and hybrid working arrangements.
- Unmatched Career Growth: Work in an environment that supports chartership, cross-discipline collaboration, and leadership development.
What You'll Be Doing
- Leading the design of mechanical systems for complex data centre environments (CHW, LTHW, HVAC, fuel, and more)
- Delivering system calculations, specifications, and detailed designs from concept through construction
- Supporting clients with technical strategy and ensuring designs align with business goals and operational requirements
- Collaborating across disciplines to ensure fully integrated and coordinated MEP designs
- Overseeing installation and monitoring site works to maintain design integrity and compliance
What You Bring
- Proven Experience in mechanical engineering design within data centres or mission-critical environments
- Working knowledge of key tools: TAS/IES, RevitMEP, AutoCAD, Hevacomp, and thermal modelling
- Understanding of the Uptime Institute Tier Classification System and relevant UK/EU design standards
- Chartered (or working toward Chartership) via CIBSE or IMechE
- Excellent leadership and communication skills, with the ability to mentor and guide others
- Eligible for UK Security Check (SC) clearance
Join a Team That Values...
- Curiosity and innovation
- Diversity of perspectives
- Technical excellence and integrity
- Empowerment to lead, grow and shape your own path
If you're passionate about solving complex engineering challenges and want your work to shape real-world outcomes, this is the role for you.
