This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Mechanical Design Engineer to join a well-established M&E Building Services contractor delivering commercial office fit-out projects across Central London, typically ranging from £100k to £2m+ in value.
Working within a fast-paced Design & Build environment, this role offers the opportunity to be involved in the full project lifecycle, from initial concept and design development through to delivery and handover.
The Role
As a Mechanical Design Engineer, you will be responsible for producing and coordinating mechanical building services designs that are both technically robust and fully deliverable within live project environments.
This is a hands‑on, delivery-focused role within a Design & Build setting, working closely with project and site teams to ensure designs align with programme, cost, and buildability requirements.
Projects typically range from small works through to larger commercial fit‑out installations, generally from £100k up to £2m+ in value.
Key Responsibilities
- Producing mechanical building services designs and specifications
- Supporting design development from concept through to detailed design
- Coordinating designs within a Design & Build environment
- Working closely with project and site teams to ensure buildable solutions

- Experience working within a Design & Build or contractor‑led environment
- Ability to produce practical, buildable designs suited to fast‑paced delivery
- Strong understanding of mechanical building services systems
- Experience with AutoCAD and ideally Revit/BIM tools
- Stable career history demonstrating commitment and reliability
Important
This role is specifically suited to engineers with commercial or fit‑out project experience. Those whose experience is primarily within residential or developer‑led projects are unlikely to be a strong match.
