• Undertake surveys and technical assessments of existing mechanical and electrical installations to establish their condition, suitability and potential for refurbishment or replacement.
• Develop engineering solutions for the upgrade, replacement and improvement of building services systems within operational commercial properties.
• Prepare feasibility studies, technical specifications, scopes of work and design documentation for M&E projects.
• Coordinate mechanical and electrical design activities, working alongside specialist designers, consultants and contractors.

You will be comfortable communicating with clients, contractors and other consultants, with strong organisational skills and an interest in developing your project management and technical consultancy experience.

A relevant engineering qualification would be advantageous, although practical experience and technical competence are equally important.
