  • Completed a recognised apprenticeship or hold technical qualifications in mechanical/building services engineering (Degree, HNC, or equivalent)
  • Excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage changing priorities and deadlines
  • Strong knowledge of Health & Safety, ideally with CDM experience (CSCS Gold Card, SMSTS or IOSH desirable)
  • Strong communicator, confident liaising with contractors, stakeholders, and clients at all levels
  • IT literate with good working knowledge of Microsoft Office

What’s In It for You

  • Salary: £55,200 £4,800 car allowance
  • 25 days holiday bank holidays, plus option to buy up to 5 extra days
  • Employee discounts (shopping, gym, leisure, days out, and more)
  • Extensive learning & development, with opportunities for career progression
  • Be part of a supportive, innovative business that values people and sustainability

If you’re an experienced mechanical engineer with a track record in data centre project management or commissioning for resilient power systems, this is your chance to join a forward-thinking team delivering high-impact projects across the UK.
