Overview
This is an excellent opportunity for an aspiring Electrical Engineer to join our Birmingham team and learn what it takes to carry out the design of electrical services on projects in the UK and worldwide. You will assist with detailed electrical building services engineering design and analysis and help define and translate client requirements into workable designs for buildings, facilities and services (electrical distribution and power generation, security and access control) with sustainability at the forefront of the design. Training will be provided on cable sizing and protective device settings selection and how to use calculation software such as Amtech, SKM or Etap. During the apprenticeship you will have day-release to study for appropriate academic qualifications at Coventry University, and beyond the apprenticeship Cundall can support you towards chartership status with the IET. There is potential for a rewarding and exciting career.
Responsibilities
* Apply engineering principles to solve broadly defined engineering problems and contribute to continuous improvement: scientific, theoretical, and technical principles.
* Apply building services engineering techniques, procedures and methods, review and evaluate results, including when measuring and testing, designing, installing, commissioning, maintaining or operating building services engineering systems or improving performance of components and systems.
* Employ mathematical, statistical and data interpretation tools, using analytical and computational methods, and apply an integrated or systems-based approach.
* Identify, interpret, and compare information in relation to materials, components or parts used in building services engineering.
* Research, collect, select and evaluate technical literature and other sources of data and information to address, analyse and evaluate building services engineering problems.
* Produce building services engineering technical solutions in accordance with relevant industry standards, policies, codes of practice, regulations, and legislation.
* Select and apply computational and analytical techniques to model building services engineering problems, recognising the limitations of the techniques employed.
* Contribute to the design, development and implementation of building services engineering solutions, and evaluate their effectiveness in the context of the whole project life cycle.
* Manage and comply with statutory health, safety and welfare policies, procedures and regulation, and contribute to improvements in health, safety and welfare within their own area of responsibility.
* Complete risk assessments to identify, evaluate, manage and mitigate risks.
* Apply principles of sustainable development and evaluate their effectiveness on the whole project lifecycle of building services engineering solutions.
* Manage engineering activities that contribute to sustainable development and the United Nations\' Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs).
* Apply project management techniques, identifying, measuring, recording and reporting progress against building services engineering project performance criteria.
* Manage quality processes and contribute to quality improvements.
* Plan and manage resources, equipment and technology to meet project requirements, specifications, costs and timescales, with an appreciation of statutory and commercial arrangements.
* Monitor and manage individual performance, and the input of others, recognising the need to adapt to changing demands and to communicate effectively.
* Comply with appropriate codes of practice and equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) requirements.
* Communicate in verbal and written contexts using appropriate methods for the audience and use appropriate engineering terminology and conventions.
* Apply teamwork and collaboration principles.
* Apply ethical principles, identifying and analysing ethical concerns and making reasoned ethical choices.
* Plan, undertake and review their own professional competence, regularly updating, recording and reviewing their continuing professional development (CPD).
Qualifications
* To be considered for the role you will be required to have either of the following:
* Have at least three A levels at Grades BBC (104 UCAS points) in STEM related subjects (Science/Technology/Engineering/Mathematics).
* T-level (Merit or above) in Construction: Design, Surveying And Planning (UCAS points: 120).
* Completed a Level 3 BTEC at DDM.
* Apprenticeship as a Building Services Design Technician (Level 4).
* Completed a HND qualification.
* Taken part in the PlanBee scheme or other qualifying pathways.
* During studies and/or work experience you have developed a keen interest in engineering and/or construction and are willing to learn new skills to reach your goals.
* You possess personal qualities and organisation skills to work under pressure and to tight deadlines, are a confident communicator, and are seeking a career in creative, sustainable, and intuitive design.
Additional Information
Share if you have other relevant qualifications and industry experience. The apprenticeship can be adjusted to reflect what you already know. Training Provider: Coventry University. Cundall\'s Building Services team is committed to sustainable design and net-zero ambitions in line with the company pledge to achieve net zero carbon on all projects by 2030.
