Senior Mechanical Engineer, Manchester

Plenty of senior mechanical engineers end up running checking work for senior staff and calling it design. This role does not. This is a Senior Mechanical Engineer position with a building services and engineering practice based in Manchester, with regional reach across the North West.

The day-to-day mix runs HVAC system design, plant strategy, compliance work across Part L and Part F, and the coordination needed to make a mechanical scheme deliverable inside a multi-disciplinary team. Tools you would expect: Revit, Hevacomp or IES, AutoCAD, Bluebeam for coordination.

You are chartered or close to it, with strong UK consultancy experience and the project-running judgement that comes with it. You can carry a scheme from concept through to delivery, manage clients and contractors without rescue, and develop the engineers around you.

Recurring themes on this brief: LEED, commercial, and infrastructure. Prior exposure to those areas is useful, not mandatory. Salary: 45,000 to 58,000 depending on experience. Working pattern: on-site, full time, based in Manchester.
