Mechanical Design Engineer Building Services

The Role

This is an excellent opportunity for a Mechanical Design Engineer looking to progress their career while working on a diverse range of projects across sectors including education, commercial, retail, industrial, and leisure.

Working within a collaborative, multi-disciplinary consultancy environment, you will gain exposure to a broad variety of projects and clients. As a Mechanical Design Engineer, you will play a key role in designing building services systems that help buildings operate efficiently, sustainably, and safely.

Key Responsibilities

  • Work as part of a design team delivering detailed mechanical building services designs.
  • Liaise closely with internal and external project teams, including structural engineers, architects, surveyors, and contractors.
  • Attend project and technical meetings.
  • Ensure designs comply with current legislation, regulations, and health and safety requirements.
  • Advise clients and project teams on energy efficiency, sustainability, and carbon reduction strategies.
  • Design site-specific mechanical systems and equipment.
  • Support and oversee the installation of building services systems.
  • Specify maintenance and operational requirements for completed designs.
  • Use industry-standard software, including CAD and BIM (Revit), to develop and coordinate designs.
  • Carry out condition surveys and prepare technical reports with recommendations.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
