Job Description

Job Title: Mechanical Project Engineer
Location:
Milton Keynes / Luton
Salary:
Up to 70,000 + Extensive Package (or day rate considered)

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an experienced Mechanical Project Engineer to join a Tier One M&E Building Services Contractor delivering major projects across the Midlands and Home Counties.

I am working with a highly regarded contractor who has secured a strong pipeline of work across the residential, commercial and life sciences sectors, with confirmed projects and growth plans in place. Due to continued expansion and a growing order book, they are now looking to strengthen their delivery team.

The company delivers high-profile developments with MEP values reaching up to 35 million, working alongside leading developers and principal contractors.

This role would suit an established Mechanical Project Engineer who is confident managing mechanical packages on-site and is looking to progress within a structured and forward-thinking business.

The successful individual will be working between sites located in Milton Keynes and Luton, with flexibility to be based from either Northampton or Birmingham depending on preference.

I am keen to speak with individuals who meet the following criteria:

  • Proven experience as a Mechanical Project Engineer within an M&E or Building Services contractor
    Background delivering residential, commercial and/or life sciences projects
    Strong knowledge of mechanical packages including HVAC, pipework, plant and public health systems
    Experience coordinating subcontractors, procurement, technical submissions and installation works
    Ability to manage programme, quality and health & safety across live projects
    Comfortable working across multiple sites within a programme-driven environment
    Strong communication skills and ability to liaise with clients, consultants and site teams
    Ambition to progress within a growing Tier One contractor

In return, the company can offer a long-term career opportunity with clear progression pathways, a strong project pipeline and the chance to work on technically challenging and high-value schemes.

The position is ideally permanent; however, strong candidates seeking a day rate contract will also be considered.
