The Team

Cundall is a global, multi-disciplinary engineering consultancy recognised for delivering innovative, sustainable and award-winning projects worldwide. Having been named Building's Engineering Consultant of the Year in 2024, 2022 and 2021, we continue to lead the way in high-performance, low-carbon design.

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Through our ambitious Zero Carbon Design 2030 goal, we are helping clients reduce operational and embodied carbon while driving positive change across the built environment.

Our Bristol office combines the opportunities of a growing team with the expertise and resources of a global consultancy. Working closely with colleagues across the UK and internationally, we deliver projects across education, higher education, workplace, science and technology, defence and mixed-use developments.

We're proud of the culture we've built. Our team is supportive, approachable and invested in each other's success, creating an environment where people can develop their careers, take on meaningful responsibility and make a visible impact on projects, clients and the continued growth of the office.

The Role

This is an exciting opportunity for a talented Mechanical Engineer to join our growing Bristol team and contribute to the design and delivery of some of the region's most exciting and technically challenging projects.

Working alongside experienced engineers, designers and specialists, you will develop innovative mechanical building services solutions from concept through to construction across a diverse portfolio of new-build and refurbishment projects.

Our work spans education, higher education, workplace, science and technology, defence and mixed-use developments, offering genuine variety and exposure throughout your career. You will work closely with clients, architects and multidisciplinary design teams to deliver sustainable, technically excellent and commercially successful projects.

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.
