Overview
My client, a Bristol-based multi-disciplinary building services consultancy, is looking for an Intermediate Mechanical Design Engineer to join their growing design team. This is a great opportunity for someone with a solid foundation in mechanical building services design to step into a well-rounded, client-facing consultancy role one that goes far beyond traditional design. Their approach blends technical engineering, cost planning, commercial support, and project management with a strong focus on operational performance and energy efficiency, often working closely with both specialist contractors and end-user clients under the BSRIA Soft Landings Framework. If you\'re looking to be part of a team where your engineering input is valued at every stage from concept design to commissioning and handover this could be your next move.
What You\'ll Be Doing
* Delivering mechanical building services designs (HVAC, public health, LTHW/CHW, etc.) across sectors such as commercial, education, healthcare and residential
* Producing detailed calculations, specifications, and coordinated drawings using tools like Hevacomp, AutoCAD, IES, and Revit
* Supporting cost planning and helping define scopes of work for tenders or fixed-fee projects
* Contributing to project delivery beyond design including commissioning support and client advice during handover
* Collaborating with a multidisciplinary team of engineers, project managers and commercial staff
* Attending meetings, site visits, and supporting the director-led approach to client relationships
* Supporting junior engineers and engaging in CPD as part of your career progression
What They\'re Looking For
Youll likely have 35 years of experience in mechanical building services and be looking to step into a more rounded, consultancy-led role.
Essentials
* A degree or HND/HNC in Mechanical or Building Services Engineering
* Hands-on experience with mechanical building services design (UK projects)
* Solid working knowledge of relevant regulations (Part L, CIBSE guides, British Standards)
* Experience with design software: Hevacomp, AutoCAD, and ideally Revit or IES
* Ability to produce clear, accurate reports, calculations and specifications
* Good communication skills and the confidence to work with clients, architects and contractors
* A proactive mindset with a focus on buildability, performance and client outcomes
Nice to Have
* Experience working under the BSRIA Soft Landings Framework
* Involvement in commissioning and post-occupancy evaluation
* Understanding of energy performance and low-carbon technologies
* Familiarity with commercial/project management support
* Progress toward Chartership with CIBSE or IMechE
Why This Role?
* Be part of a tight-knit, technically strong consultancy team
* Exposure to the full project lifecycle, not just design
* Regular collaboration with directors and clients no silos
* Excellent career development potential and CPD support
* Work on projects that matter, from concept through to completion and operation
* Competitive salary and benefits package, tailored to experience
If you\'re looking for a role that combines technical design with real-world project impact, and you\'re keen to grow in a collaborative consultancy environment this one\'s worth a conversation.
