Senior Mechanical Design Engineer in Birmingham, West Midlands

Senior Mechanical Design Engineer
£60,000 – £65,000 | Permanent | Birmingham

Step into a team that’s already got momentum

A growing building services consultancy with a strong education focus is looking for a senior mechanical engineer to join its Birmingham team.

You won’t be starting from scratch or working in isolation. The business has an established mechanical and electrical team, and its management is based in Birmingham, so you’ll have colleagues to learn from and bounce ideas off, and a say in how the team grows.

The role

You’ll lead mechanical design and technical delivery on education projects, mainly across the Midlands. That runs from surveys of existing buildings with the costs attached, through to designs that stand up to CIBSE guidance. You’ll help plan how the work is resourced, bring your experience to tenders and frameworks, support junior engineers, and look for repeat work and new openings with the clients you work with.

What you’ll need

• HNC/HND or degree-level engineering qualification
• 5+ years’ mechanical building services design experience
• A consultancy background
• Experience producing condition surveys and lifecycle reports with costed recommendations
• Working knowledge of CIBSE guidance and design standards
• Confidence working directly with clients
• Willingness to complete enhanced safeguarding checks, as standard for education work

Helpful, not essential

• Education or public sector project experience
• Input to bids, tenders or frameworks
• Experience coaching junior engineers

What you’ll get

A salary of £60,000 – £65,000, a performance bonus, private healthcare and pension
