Overview

Are you a Mechanical Engineer, with a background in analysis and design of piping systems and pressure equipment, who thrives on difficult problems? Are you drawn to complex design projects and excited by the opportunity to rapidly move on to leadership positions, heading up projects and guiding junior engineers?

If so, you might enjoy solving the energy industry's most important pressure equipment design conundrums across a variety of clients. You could be designing systems to provide cooling for safety critical plant, to provide emergency shutdown capability to nuclear reactors, to qualify pipework for the high temperatures and pressures required for fusion reactors, to support the UK Submarine and SMR programmes, or to enable one of many renewable energy projects across a growing carbon net zero portfolio. You're likely to be juggling several projects simultaneously, so enjoying being adaptable is a must! The constant in this role is the complex nature of the jobs and the chance to provide innovative solutions to a range of problems for several appreciative clients.

Whichever energy-related projects you find yourself assigned to, you'll be engaged in the deployment of collaborative solutions to provide a safe and reliable plant – so you'll be making an important and rewarding contribution to the safety surrounding our future energy supply.

If you are a self-starter who can deliver multiple projects at the same time, working closely with clients and internal teams to capture requirements, set up projects and deliver right-first-time solutions for the most challenging problems in the energy industry, then we'd love you to apply.

Your role

You will work within small to medium sized multidisciplinary teams. To benefit from the collective experience of the team, our clients, and drive innovative thinking, you'll work in a collaborative and supportive office / site environment for a minimum of half of your working week. You may also be based at client offices or plant sites. You will bring a level of commercial awareness to working within those teams to effectively deliver tasks for multiple workstreams and to deliver to time, quality, and cost.
