The business has a strong presence across the public sector, delivering projects within healthcare, education, universities and colleges, Welsh Government, leisure and heritage.

Your new role

You will join the team as a Mechanical Design Engineer, with the opportunity to take ownership of projects and work with a good level of autonomy.

The technical environment includes Revit/BIM, Hevacomp and Amtech, alongside internal calculation tools and support from a dedicated CAD team.

The role would particularly suit an experienced Senior Mechanical Design Engineer with a strong building services background who is comfortable managing and running projects independently.
Experience across healthcare, education or wider public-sector projects would align particularly well with the consultancy's current portfolio.
