ESSENTIAL SKILLS & EXPERIENCE

• Degree (or HNC/HND with significant experience) in mechanical engineering or related discipline.
• Extensive background in mechanical design engineering, ideally gained in a regulated sector environment (e.g., nuclear, energy, oil & gas, process or heavy industry).
• Proven experience in checking and validating engineering calculations, technical documentation, and detailed mechanical drawings.
• Familiarity with CAD platforms (AutoCAD, Inventor or similar) and mechanical design/analysis software.
• Strong working knowledge of UK and international mechanical engineering standards, codes, and statutory regulations.
• Meticulous attention to detail, analytical mindset, and a proactive approach to problem-solving and process improvement.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills – able to deliver clear, constructive technical feedback and collaborate effectively across teams.
• Full UK driving licence or ability to travel to client sites as required.

• Carry out detailed technical checks of mechanical design deliverables, including calculations, drawings, specifications, and data sheets, ensuring compliance with project requirements, standards, and quality procedures.
• Review and verify mechanical engineering calculations for accuracy, robustness, and compliance with statutory, client, and industry requirements.
• Work closely with mechanical designers and engineers to provide constructive feedback, challenge assumptions, and drive continuous improvement in design quality.
• Liaise with multi-disciplinary teams (EC&I, process, project management) to coordinate cross-functional design reviews and integration.
• Support risk assessment, safety, and constructability reviews, flagging potential issues and driving early resolution.
• Champion a quality-centric culture by promoting best practice, knowledge sharing, and mentoring less-experienced team members in robust engineering principles.
• Document and report review outcomes in accordance with project and company quality management systems.
