Step up to associate mechanical engineer with real project ownership
Responsum Global · London, England ·
You know your way around a mechanical design package at Associate level, but you want real ownership of projects rather than sitting in the shadow of someone else's sign off. This is a well established building services consultancy working from a modern studio in central London, delivering mechanical design across commercial, residential and mixed use schemes with a genuinely collaborative team culture. The frustration for a lot of engineers at this stage is being stuck between technician level tasks and the strategic decisions that actually move a project forward.
Are you the right candidate for this opportunity Make sure to read the full description below.
This role gives you a proper seat at the table: leading mechanical design packages from concept through to construction, mentoring less experienced engineers, and having a direct line into client conversations rather than being kept at arm's length.
You will be trusted with real responsibility from day one, working alongside a small, experienced team that is expanding and needs someone who can operate independently without losing attention to detail. Hybrid working is available, and the studio culture favours engineers who want to grow into technical leadership rather than stay in a purely delivery focused role.
There is a clear path here toward Principal level for the right person, with the scope to shape how mechanical design is delivered rather than simply following a template someone else set. Salary is between 75,000 and 90,000.If this sounds like the next step you have been waiting for, get in touch and we can talk through the detail.
