Your new company

We are recruiting on behalf of an innovative and rapidly expanding technical asset management consultancy that specialises in making existing buildings sustainable. The company helps landlords and property managers map risk, plan for, and transition portfolios of buildings to net zero carbon as cost-effectively as possible.
They achieve this through a unique approach that combines building services engineering with dynamic simulation modelling, energy engineering, and proprietary data analysis software. The company works with blue-chip investment funds and property companies, supporting the management of over 1 million m² of predominantly commercial real estate assets.

With a head office in Shrewsbury, they offer a positive hybrid working environment where employees work flexibly and travel across the UK to visit buildings.

Your new role

As part of their continuing growth strategy, we are looking to appoint a Senior Building Services Design Engineer with a strong mechanical bias. You will be responsible for delivering building services designs for refurbishment projects, with an emphasis on net zero carbon transition.
This role also offers the opportunity to innovate on existing industry processes and help shape the company's unique software to support this. The successful candidate will have experience in the design of HVAC systems and a good general working knowledge of building services within the commercial property sector.

Ideally, candidates will be members of the Chartered Institute of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE), Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), or Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) with three to five years post-qualification experience.

What you'll need to succeed
  • Strong mechanical engineering knowledge.
  • Proficiency in AutoCAD M&E.
  • Understanding of UK construction contracts and processes.
  • Aspiration to deliver engineering excellence with a focus on sustainability within design.
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
  • Clear focus on customer relationship management aligned to business value and profit.
  • Strong leadership skills.
What you'll get in return
  • A competitive salary of £50-60k.
  • Clear career pathways and development plans with protected time to support professional membership applications, further education, or acquiring new skills.
  • Support for health and wellbeing, including a healthcare plan, 12 days of paid leave for volunteering, and supportive policies on mental health.
  • Flexible working patterns.
  • The opportunity to join a rapidly expanding and ambitious company that encourages and supports innovative thinking and finding new solutions to achieving net zero carbon in existing, complex buildings.
  • Become part of an agile and high-performing team that prides itself on delivering world-class outputs without corporate office politics and bureaucracy.
  • 25 days annual leave per year plus public holiday entitlement.
  • Pension scheme.
  • Discretionary bonus.
