Job Description
Are you a Mechanical Design Engineer who thrives on solving difficult engineering problems? Are you drawn to complex projects and excited by the opportunity to rapidly progress your technical leadership skills to the next level, heading up multi-disciplinary projects?
If so, you might enjoy solving the energy industry’s most important mechanical engineering conundrums for a multitude of energy systems across various clients. You could be managing projects designing test rigs to support the UK’s nuclear fusion development, conducting structural integrity assessments of primary plant for civil and defence applications, designing high-integrity structures for new nuclear facilities, or leading renewable energy projects within a growing carbon net zero portfolio. You’ll likely be juggling several projects simultaneously, so adaptability is essential! The constant is the complex nature of these jobs and the opportunity to provide innovative solutions to a range of client challenges.
Whichever energy-related projects you participate in, you'll be engaged in developing engineering solutions to industry’s most challenging problems, contributing significantly to the UK’s energy and environmental security.
If you are a self-starter capable of delivering multiple projects, working closely with clients and internal teams to capture requirements, initiate projects, and deliver right-first-time solutions, then we encourage you to apply.
