Don't want to spend the rest of your career doing just one thing?
Maybe you're currently a BMS Maintenance Engineer who's ready to get involved in more commissioning and project work.
Maybe you're a Commissioning Engineer who doesn't mind getting stuck into the occasional maintenance issue.
Or perhaps you're already a good all-round BMS Engineer looking for a business where you can broaden your skills and take on more responsibility.
We're working with a major BMS business that's continuing to strengthen its Midlands operation and they're deliberately keeping an open mind about exactly where the successful engineer comes from.
They're not necessarily looking for the finished article.
They're looking for someone with good BMS foundations, the right attitude and the ambition to develop.
The Role
You'll join an established Midlands engineering team, ideally based around the Northampton / Milton Keynes area.
This is a varied engineering position rather than one where you'll be pigeonholed into a single discipline.
Depending on the workload and your existing experience, you'll get involved across commissioning, project works and some maintenance, giving you the opportunity to develop into a genuinely rounded BMS engineer.
If you're coming from maintenance, that could mean developing your commissioning and project capability.
If you're already commissioning, it could mean getting more involved in wider project delivery.
And if you're already comfortable across all three, you'll have the opportunity to come in and make an immediate impact.
The business has projects ranging from approximately £20,000 through to £400,000, although the majority sit around the £100,000–£150,000 mark.
What You'll Be Doing
- BMS commissioning
- BMS maintenance and fault finding
- Supporting and delivering project works
- Working with Trend and Tridium control systems
- Taking increasing ownership of projects as your experience develops
- Working alongside experienced engineers and project teams
- Diagnosing and resolving technical issues on site
- Working directly with customers when required
- Supporting projects from engineering through to commissioning and completion
- Developing your wider technical and project-delivery capability
What We're Looking For
We're deliberately keeping this fairly open.
You could be an experienced BMS Engineer who can come in as a safe pair of hands.
But equally, you could have a couple of years' BMS experience and be looking for the opportunity to take the next step.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Ideally, You'll Have:
- Trend and/or Tridium experience
- BMS maintenance, commissioning or project experience
- Good understanding of HVAC and building controls
- Strong fault-finding ability
- A willingness to get involved across different areas of BMS
- Good communication skills
- Ability to work independently when required
- Most importantly, a good attitude and genuine desire to learn and develop
You don't need to tick every box.
The business is specifically prepared to develop someone who has the right foundations and attitude rather than holding out for someone who already knows absolutely everything. Alex described the requirement as a sliding scale, including engineers with a couple of years' experience who want to learn and grow.
Your Patch
Ideally, you'll be based around Northampton or Milton Keynes.
Projects and contracts extend across the wider Midlands, including Milton Keynes, Leicester and Nottingham, alongside some work towards Cambridge and Oxford.
There will naturally be some travel — that's project engineering — but the business actively tries to keep engineers reasonably local where possible, generally aiming for work within approximately 60–90 minutes of home.
Why This Role?
- Move beyond purely BMS maintenance into commissioning and projects
- Work across Trend and Tridium systems
- Projects typically worth £100k–£150k and reaching £400k
- Opportunity to develop into a genuinely rounded BMS Engineer
- Join a Midlands team that has been significantly rebuilt and developed over the last 12 months
- Work for a business prepared to invest in potential rather than only hiring the finished article
- Strong technical and career development opportunities
- Varied workload across projects, commissioning and maintenance
- Predominantly regional patch with an effort made to keep engineers local
- Opportunity to take on greater project responsibility as you develop
- Join a busy operation with a strong pipeline of billable work
What You Get
- Competitive salary based on experience
- Company vehicle / package
- Strong Company Benefits
- Technical training and development
- Clear opportunity to progress further into BMS projects
- Established Midlands team
- Long-term career development within a growing BMS business
Interested?
You don't need to already be a fully-fledged Project Engineer.
If you've built good BMS experience and you're thinking, "I'm ready to do more than I'm doing now," that's exactly the type of person we'd like to speak to.
Likewise, if you're already an experienced Trend / Tridium engineer looking for a varied role where you can get involved across commissioning and projects, we'd like to hear from you.
