Why Join Actemium Birmingham?
At Actemium (VINCI Energies), we deliver high-quality control panel and Building Management System (BMS) solutions across multiple industries. This role offers you the opportunity to:
- Work on real-world projects where your designs transform from concept to manufacture.
- Be part of a collaborative team where your technical expertise directly impacts project success—beyond just drafting drawings.
- Take on a dual role as both a BMS Panel Designer and Estimator, merging technical design with commercial acumen.
What You’ll Be Doing
In this hands-on role, you will bridge design and delivery, turning concepts into build-ready solutions:
- Design BMS control panels using AutoCAD or electrical CAD tools.
- Create schematics, wiring diagrams, and panel layouts to industry standards.
- Develop accurate estimates and bills of materials, including labour and component costs.
- Collaborate with project managers, engineers, and procurement teams to define scope and mitigate risks.
- Engage with suppliers to source components, pricing, and lead times.
- Compile complete build packs (drawings, BOMs, instructions) for workshop use.
- Support manufacturing with technical queries and test requirements.
- Identify opportunities for cost reduction and efficiency improvements via standardisation.
- Attend site visits and client meetings as needed.
