Senior Mechanical Engineer - Building Services

London | Hybrid Working

Salary: -55,000 - -65,000 + Excellent Benefits + Clear Route to Associate

Are you a Senior Mechanical Engineer looking for more than just your next role?

This is an opportunity to join one of London''s most respected multidisciplinary consultancies, working on technically challenging projects alongside an established Building Services team with a genuine commitment to developing and promoting its people.

My client has built an outstanding reputation for delivering innovative engineering solutions across commercial, residential, healthcare, education, industrial, hospitality, mixed-use and heritage developments. Their engineers work closely with architects, surveyors, project managers and sustainability specialists, giving you exposure to projects from concept through to completion.

Whether you''re looking to continue developing as a technical expert or have ambitions of progressing into leadership, this role offers one of the strongest long-term career pathways in the market.

Why Join?

Genuine Career Progression

My client has an excellent reputation for promoting from within. If your ambition is to become an Associate or Associate Director, you''ll be joining a business that actively invests in developing its people and recognises performance, leadership and technical excellence.

This isn''t a business where progression is limited by hierarchy-there is a clear and achievable pathway for those looking to take the next step in their career.

Exciting & Diverse Projects

You''ll work across an impressive portfolio of projects including:

  • Commercial Offices
  • High-End Residential Developments
  • Mixed-Use Schemes
  • Healthcare Facilities
  • Education Buildings
  • Industrial & Logistics
  • Hospitality & Leisure
  • Heritage & Listed Buildings
  • Major Refurbishment & Decarbonisation Projects

The multidisciplinary nature of the business means you''ll collaborate with professionals across multiple disciplines, giving you far greater project exposure than a traditional engineering consultancy.

The Role

As a Senior Mechanical Engineer, you''ll take ownership of projects from feasibility through to completion whilst supporting and mentoring junior engineers.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Leading the mechanical design of building services projects.
  • Producing detailed HVAC, public health and sustainable building services designs.
  • Carrying out calculations using industry-standard software.
  • Preparing specifications, reports and technical documentation.
  • Attending client and design team meetings.
  • Coordinating with architects, structural engineers and wider project teams.
  • Managing project delivery, budgets and programme deadlines.
  • Mentoring Graduate and Intermediate Engineers.
  • Supporting Associates and Directors with project delivery and client relationships.
  • Assisting with technical reviews and quality assurance.

What We''re Looking For

  • Degree qualified in Mechanical Engineering or Building Services Engineering.
  • Experience within a UK Building Services Consultancy.
  • Strong HVAC and mechanical building services design experience.
  • Good understanding of current Building Regulations and British Standards.
  • Excellent communication and client-facing skills.
  • Chartered status (or working towards) would be advantageous.

Salary & Benefits

  • -55,000 - -65,000 depending on experience.
  • Hybrid working.
  • Excellent pension scheme.
  • Professional membership fees paid.
  • Ongoing CPD and career development.
  • Clear progression to Associate and Associate Director.
  • Collaborative multidisciplinary environment.
  • A supportive leadership team that genuinely invests in its people.

One of the Standout Benefits

They offer an exceptional Christmas working arrangement, allowing employees to work remotely from anywhere in the world for an extended period over the festive season-typically providing an additional 2-4 weeks of flexibility beyond standard annual leave. It''s a unique benefit that reflects the trust and flexibility embedded within the company''s culture.

A Unique Opportunity

Having worked closely with the Hiring Director for many years, I know first-hand the type of engineer they value and the culture they''ve built within the team.

This isn''t a role being advertised to the wider market-it''s an opportunity to join a high-performing team under a leader with an excellent reputation for mentoring, developing and promoting talented engineers.

If you''re looking for a business where your ideas are valued, your career can genuinely progress and you''ll have the opportunity to work on some of London''s most diverse and technically interesting projects, I''d be delighted to tell you more.
