Project Engineer

£55k - £60k per annum
Full-time
BMS PROJECT ENGINEER
South East
£55,000 to £60,000 + £6,825 Car Allowance + Bonus + Benefits

You’re already capable of commissioning a BMS. The question is whether you want to keep commissioning somebody else’s project, or start taking ownership of the project itself. This BMS Project Engineer role gives you responsibility for smaller controls projects from start to finish, while keeping you close to the engineering. You’ll create the programme, coordinate subcontractors, deal with procurement and technical submissions, solve engineering issues and take the job through commissioning, witnessing and client handover. So if you want more project responsibility but don’t want to swap engineering for a desk, this could be a worthwhile next step.


WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY BE DOING AND WHY IT MATTERS
As the BMS Project Engineer, you’ll own the delivery of smaller projects rather than being responsible for just one stage of them. At the front end, you could be developing the programme of works, procuring controls equipment, sizing valves and producing Descriptions of Operation, equipment schedules, RFIs and technical submittals. You’ll produce IO wiring diagrams for panel design and review what comes back from the panel shop. You’ll then remain hands-on as the project moves onto site, carrying out point-to-point checks, terminations, panel and wiring modifications and DDC commissioning. You’ll coordinate subcontractors, attend progress meetings and work directly with clients to resolve technical or engineering issues. Importantly, you’ll see your projects through. That means keeping the as-commissioned information accurate, getting witnessing packs signed off and taking the finished system through demonstration and client handover.

WHY THIS ROLE COULD BE BETTER For the right BMS engineer, the attraction isn’t simply a different employer. It’s a broader level of responsibility. If you’re currently working as a Commissioning Engineer and are ready for the next step, you can build experience across:
• Project ownership, programmes and subcontractor coordination
• Procurement, panel design information and technical submissions
• Client communication, commissioning, witnessing and handover You won’t have to give up the technical work to gain that responsibility. You’ll still commission and troubleshoot BMS systems, working with technology including Trend, Tridium, Schneider, Siemens or ALC and using your knowledge of Niagara-based systems. That combination makes the role particularly relevant if your longer-term development means becoming a stronger all-round BMS Project Engineer, with both engineering depth and experience delivering projects.

ESSENTIALS
This isn’t intended to be someone’s first BMS engineering position. You’ll need solid BMS commissioning experience with at least one of Trend, Tridium, Schneider, Siemens or ALC, plus knowledge of Niagara-based systems. You’ll also need a good understanding of HVAC, electrical competence and the ability to interpret and alter existing BMS control strategies. Just as importantly, you need to be ready for the wider responsibility that comes with a BMS Project Engineer position. You’ll be coordinating information, subcontractors and clients alongside delivering the engineering itself.

THE CHALLENGES
More ownership also means more accountability. When an engineering problem affects the programme, you won’t simply identify it and pass it on. As the BMS Project Engineer, you’ll be involved in coordinating what happens next. You’ll be balancing commissioning with programmes, procurement, technical documentation, subcontractors, client requirements and health and safety responsibilities. There is also a significant geographic footprint. Projects are located throughout London and the wider South East, including the surrounding Home Counties, Hampshire, Oxfordshire and Northamptonshire. You’ll need to be comfortable travelling between project sites across that territory.

YOUR DEVELOPMENT
The development opportunity here is practical: increasing the amount of a BMS project you are capable of owning. If you already have the commissioning background, this role can give you direct experience managing smaller projects from start to finish. That adds programme management, procurement, technical submissions, subcontractor coordination and client-facing delivery to your existing engineering capability. You may also supervise junior engineers and provide technical support to other members of the team. Relevant training courses are available where required, with commercial-awareness training also available where needed.

PACKAGE ON OFFER
£55,000 to £60,000 basic salary £6,825 annual car allowance Company performance-related bonus scheme 7.5% pension, increasing to 8.75% after five years’ service and 10% after ten years 25 days’ annual leave, increasing to 26 days after two years and 27 days after eight years You’ll also receive:
• Private healthcare
• Opportunity to buy or sell additional holiday
• Competitive sick pay
• Cycle to Work scheme up to £2,000
• EV salary sacrifice scheme
• Interest-free EV charger loan up to £1,000
• Interest-free Smart Tech scheme up to £2,000
• Employee retail, leisure and travel discounts
• Employee referral scheme

APPLY TODAY
You may already have a decent BMS role and not be actively looking. But if you’ve reached the point where you can commission the project and now want the opportunity to take responsibility for delivering more of it, this BMS Project Engineer position is worth a conversation. You don’t need to decide whether you want to change jobs before speaking to us.
