The Team:
Cundall’s Building Services team’s mission is to play a key role in making buildings more energy efficient, sustainable and cost effective to operate. We pride ourselves on our exemplary track record in providing expert advice at all stages of the design and construction, working with clients and architects to create spaces for people.
The Building Services team are a source of world leading expertise and our reputation in the education sector has been growing, with clients that include the Department of Education, the Welsh Government, as well as many Tier 1 contractors and private fee paying schools.
The Role:
This is an opportunity for an experienced and client-focused senior mechanical building services engineer to join the team at our London office. This key role will work alongside directors and partners, ensuring the successful delivery whilst working with clients, architects and other stakeholders for some of the most exciting new school building projects in the UK and Worldwide.
The successful candidate will take a key role in delivering education projects in the south of England with a typical project value between £10m and £80m. You will work closely with colleagues of various disciplines from pre-bid through to design phases to completion and post-handover.
You will develop new and nurture existing outstanding client relationships that maximise satisfaction and ensure repeat business and will use your wealth of expertise and leadership skills to manage, motivate and inspire less experienced engineers.
The Skills:
Probably educated to degree level in Building Services Engineering, and with a minimum of four years’ experience in a mechanical engineering role within a building services context. You will be mentored to become a Chartered Engineer, if you are not on the way to already. The successful candidate will have experience in the design of ventilation, cooling, heating systems etc. and the importance of fabric and other environmental factors that impact good school design and energy performance.
You will have an extensive portfolio of experience demonstrating your familiarity with high quality schools and colleges, and your ability to influence the wider design team. Have working experience of the DfE specifications, as well as the tendering engagement process required to support Tier 1 contractors bidding for schemes.
In your most recent position, you have consistently demonstrated your ability to manage multiple projects and less experienced engineers to exceed client expectations. Ideally, you will possess sound knowledge of Revit and have proven experience for creative, sustainable and intuitive design.
Given the collaborative and client focused nature of this role, excellent communication and time management skills are essential.
There is the opportunity to grow within this role both technically and managerially. You will assist with fee proposals and business development in the schools and education sector and provide the local expertise. You will attend our internal national and international schools sector meetings, sharing best practice and opportunities. You will be supported by mechanical and electrical engineers as the design progresses and enjoy developing solutions in collaboration with other members of the professional team in a consultive role.
You will be supported in this role with engineers providing design services and be working alongside directors/partners who will actively also support you as we expand our London, south of England and international offerings. You will be part of the Schools Sector group and whilst this will be the primary role, you may also work on non-education projects. This is an opportunity to develop project management and project financial skills to compliment your engineering skills. This role should be viewed as a steppingstone to the next level and to be part of the leadership in this sector in the south.
