Mechanical Engineering Graduate Scheme - Infrastructure

Degree Requirements: A minimum of a 2.1 Bachelor’s or BEng in Building Services or Architectural Engineering discipline, or a minimum of a 2.2. Master’s or MEng degree in Mechanical Engineering

Locations: Manchester

A building at its simplest consists of the structure and architecture that results in a shell waiting to be occupied. Our Building Services team comes together to make buildings functional, comfortable, and safe, preferably through sustainable engineering solutions where building and site constraints allow. We work closely with our clients to understand how we can work to support them in achieving their Net Zero Carbon aspirations, whether that is providing comfort in the form of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, power and lighting, or ensuring it is safe to occupy through fire safety and security design. Our capabilities include Electrical and Mechanical Engineering, Public Health, Sustainability, Building Physics, Fire, Security and ICT, Building Energy Management Systems, Lighting and Vertical Transportation.

Collaborating with interdisciplinary teams to deliver world-class projects for our clients, you’ll carry out building services system design from concept design to construction and support in a Technical Advisory (TA) role from construction to completion. You’ll work using cutting-edge, digitally enabled design processes to produce holistic yet practical solutions that meet the end-user requirements. There will also be the opportunity to get involved with applied research and digital development to help create user-centric buildings and places.

You’ll have the opportunity to develop the broad range of skills set out by the Engineering Council, working towards the competencies required for Chartership with a professional body alongside one of our experienced engineers, who will serve as your Chartership mentor. This will include innovative engineering solutions, technical analysis, preparing reports and contract documents, and technical and commercial leadership whilst engaging with clients and project management.

As a Graduate Mechanical Engineer within the Building Services team at AtkinsRéalis, you’ll learn to carry out the following activities:

• To design and specify heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.
• To produce reports, schedules and supporting documentation to enable you to issue a complete design package to the client.
• Undertake Building Regulations Part L assessment using IES to verify the HVAC design complies with UK Building Regulations and meets the Low Carbon reduction requirements for the notation building and the Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) Rating.
• Visits to sites, client offices, etc.
• Attend client and design team meetings both with internal and external stakeholders.
• Collaboration with multi-disciplinary design teams (electrical, public health, architecture, structures, etc.) to generate a fully coordinated design.
• Project management.

Benefits:

• AtkinsRéalis is registered with the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) and works alongside CIBSE as part of a graduate development scheme
• We provide support for those who would prefer to become Chartered with the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET)
• On the job 1-2-1 technical training and support provided by senior engineers
• Regular Lunchtime CPDs and technical Forums will help you develop
• The opportunity to work on a wide variety of unique projects in the UK and abroad
• We have a dedicated research and development team to keep improving, stay ahead of our competitors, and deliver the best possible projects for our clients
• Secondment opportunities in the UK and abroad are available both within AtkinsRéalis and to external parties
• Hybrid working/flexible working with 3 days in the office

Degree Requirements: Minimum 2.1 Bachelor’s / BEng or 2.2 Master’s / MEng in Mechanical Engineering, Computational Fluid Modelling Engineering, or related subject

Locations: Epsom (Surrey)

Our team provides technically excellent engineering design of tunnelling, underground, and heavy infrastructure, particularly focused on mass transit, rail and major project programmes. You’ll be supported by a team with expertise in assessment of ground movements, design of complex foundations and ‘ground-contacting’ structures, in addition to the assessment of ventilation and fire life safety aspects of utilising underground space. Here you’ll get the opportunity to take on a wide range of interesting activities, including site work, design, asset impact assessments, life cycle/risk assessments and project management.

Key duties include:

• Tunnelling design and associated reporting.
• Micro-tunnelling (HDD, Pipejacking, direct pipe).
• Large tunnels (TBMs, SCL, Square works..).
• Ground movement assessment and impact assessment.
• Tunnel Principal Inspection and Asset management.
• Shafts, tunnel’s portals and ancillary structures.
• Undertaking feasibility studies.
• Specification, planning and procurement of tunnels projects.
• Working with specialist software to support planning programmes.
• Supervision of construction works on site.

Degree Requirements: Minimum of a 2:2 Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related field.

Location: Epsom (Surrey) or London

Our team specialises in solving critical engineering challenges in structural dynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and stress analysis. We use software tools and advanced techniques such as finite element analysis to predict the behaviour of civil engineering structures and mechanical components. To support our major projects and clients we continually invest in our staff, providing and developing state-of-the-art tools – most recently with the growth of our Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) team.

Based in either our Epsom or London offices, you’ll have a demonstrable interest and knowledge in one or more of the following: structural dynamics, computer-aided engineering, Finite Element Analysis, Computational Fluid Dynamics. You’ll enjoy collaborating across inter-disciplinary teams to find innovative solutions for our clients, whilst developing expertise in areas such as stress analysis, structural dynamics, thermal analysis, vibration monitoring, seismic engineering, blast and impact assessment, and more.

Your responsibilities:

• Simulate structure and component behaviour using computational models.
• Investigate dynamic characteristics through calculations.
• Ensure high quality output by following quality assurance procedures.
• Write technical reports.
• Collaborate with other engineers on multi-disciplinary projects, to understand analysis or design requirements, and convey analysis results.
• Engage with clients and stakeholders.
• Engage with technical and digital networks within the organisation to share knowledge and best practice.

Join our team to grow your skills in an established consultancy with a track record for excellence and a supportive environment. We are committed to fostering an inclusive culture based on trust and transparency, where collaboration and the exchange of ideas are encouraged.

Degree Requirements: Minimum of a 2:2 Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering

Location: Belfast, Bristol, Glasgow, Manchester

As a Graduate Mechanical Engineer within our Design and Advanced Technology Water team you’ll help to support our clients across the Water sector in the UK and internationally. Our team provides Civil, Mechanical, Electrical, ICA (Instrumentation, Control and Automation) and Process engineering skills and expertise to water companies, supporting their capital (both new build and refurbishment) and operational (problem solving on existing sites) projects and programmes.

You’ll get the opportunity to develop your capability in a wide range of exciting projects, with a focus on water and wastewater treatment, sludge treatment, and bioresource recovery from Anaerobic Digestion (AD). Water, both clean and dirty, is a critical asset needing careful management and you could play a key part in this!

Key activities include:

• Working within multidisciplinary teams to produce feasibility studies and outline designs through to detailed design work for water industry projects.
• Working with and developing process tools such as mass balances and process flow diagrams.
• Development of design solutions for clean and wastewater applications, as well as reviewing the performance of existing processes at treatment sites.
• Collaborating with clients to understand and help them achieve their carbon and net zero ambitions.
• Technical report writing.
• Strategic planning to provide long-term innovative solutions for clients.
