Regional Building Services Engineer (MEP)

Your new company A multidisciplinary construction consultancy with a forward-thinking approach. Following a period of strategic growth and the establishment of our Northern offices, we are seeking a highly skilled MEP professional to act as a key technical anchor for our projects across the North-West and Yorkshire regions. This is a bespoke, high-autonomy role designed for an engineer who excels in the 'front-end' of building services: site intelligence, client strategy, and technical delivery. You will be the primary technical face of our MEP discipline in the North, working as a strategic partner to our established Birmingham and London Design Hubs. Unlike traditional design roles, this position focusses on the critical interface between the site, the client, and the design office. You will be the 'eyes and ears' on the ground, ensuring that the technical information feeding our design process is of the highest accuracy. Your new role Technical Information Gathering: Lead comprehensive site appraisals and technical feasibility surveys. You will translate complex as-built realities into clear, high-level briefs for our design team. Client & Stakeholder Leadership: Act as the MEP design lead in Northern-based project meetings, providing expert technical advice to clients, architects, and contractors. Design Liaison: Bridge the gap between site-based challenges and design-office solutions. You will be the technical translator, ensuring the team has everything they need to produce designs. Construction Stage Monitoring: Conduct high-level technical reviews and periodic site inspections, to ensure the onsite installation aligns with the design intent and quality benchmarks. Project Lifecycle Oversight: Manage the flow of information from initial site visit through to final commissioning and handover. Management & Reporting Structure: While based in our Northern offices, you will be a core member of our national MEP team. You will be managed by the Birmingham-based MEP Programme Manager and working closely with our MEP Director on key client relationships and projects. What you'll need to succeed You must have a robust background in Building Services Design (Mechanical or Electrical) with a deep understanding of multidisciplinary coordination. Ideally 5+ years experience This is a highly mobile, field-based role requiring a proactive approach to regional travel. A full UK driving licence and a willingness to travel are essential. Exceptional ability to produce clear, professional site reports, sketches, and briefing documents that the design team can build from. You can identify a site-based constraint and immediately visualise the potential design solutions. What you'll get in return An annual salary up to £58,000 Support to progress with an onboard leadership team to develop and push your skills. Some benefits include: Flexible working hours (choice of start and finish times based around a 7.25-hour working day, core hours between 10am-4.15pm) Life assurance cover (four times annual salary) for all colleagues.
