Engineering Consultant

Engineering Consultant (6 month+ contract)

Location: Aldershot (On‑site, full‑time)

Contract Length: 6 months initially, likely extension to 9+ months

IR35 Status: Outside IR35

Overview

We are seeking an experienced Engineering Consultant to join a growing GMP pharmaceutical site in Aldershot. The site is undergoing significant expansion, including new and upgraded facilities. This is a highly visible, on‑site position requiring someone who can hit the ground running, operate autonomously, and drive engineering activity forward without relying on heavy oversight.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and execute CAPEX and engineering projects, including expansions, new site builds, facility conversions, and equipment installations.
• Drive engineering activity from concept through to commissioning and handover.
• Manage contractors, suppliers, and external engineering partners.
• Ensure project delivery aligns with GMP requirements and site quality standards.
• Work closely with Operations, Quality, and Site Engineering to maintain project momentum.
• Provide hands‑on support and visibility on the shop floor — this is not a desk‑only or purely planning role.
• Support documentation, URS, risk assessments, work packs, and technical reporting.
• Troubleshoot engineering challenges and coordinate practical solutions in real time.

Experience & Background

Essential

• Strong background in GMP pharmaceutical engineering.
• Experience delivering CAPEX, Engineering Projects, or Project Engineering within regulated manufacturing.
• Able to operate independently and bring immediate impact.
• Comfortable being hands‑on when required — supporting practical engineering tasks, site walkthroughs, or troubleshooting.
• On‑site presence is essential; this is not a remote or hybrid consultancy contract.
• Must be available within 4 weeks (max.) — no long notice periods.

Desirable (Higher Rate Justification)

• Experience working in sterile/aseptic pharmaceutical facilities.
• Knowledge of cleanroom design, utilities (HVAC, purified water, compressed air), or lab expansions.

Beneficial (not essential)

• Previous experience in equipment installation, commissioning, or mechanical/electrical troubleshooting.
• Any practical engineering background complementing project delivery.
