Mechanical Design Engineer – Kent - Up to £48,000 + Package
About The Company
An established and growing MEP Consultancy with over 18 years of industry experience is looking to expand its mechanical team with an additional engineer based in their Kent office.
The business has built a strong reputation across the UK and Europe, delivering projects across a wide range of sectors including commercial, high-end residential, hospitality, retail, education and healthcare.
A small business with a big reach, this role gives you the opportunity to be part of a small, close-knit team with a genuinely collaborative culture, whilst still working on high-profile projects across the UK and Europe.
Unlike larger consultancies where roles can become heavily siloed, this position offers broad exposure across all aspects of project delivery. You will have the chance to develop well-rounded experience by being involved in everything from client meetings and site visits through to project coordination, budgeting, advisory and design management — not just sitting behind a desk focused solely on design work.
The consultancy works closely with several long-standing architects, project managers, managing agents and developers, resulting in a consistent and fast-paced project pipeline. The team is ambitious, collaborative and highly driven, offering an excellent environment for engineers looking to progress their careers long term.
The Opportunity
This is an exciting opportunity for a Mechanical Engineer to join a dynamic consultancy working on prestigious UK and international projects.
