Join CBRE GWS

CBRE is the global leader in commercial real estate services, delivering integrated facilities management and workplace solutions to some of the world's leading organisations. As part of our continued growth, we are seeking a skilled and customer-focused Mechanical Engineer to join our team in London.

This is an excellent opportunity for a qualified engineer with experience in building services maintenance who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and takes pride in delivering exceptional service standards.

The Role

As a Mechanical Engineer, you will be responsible for carrying out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive maintenance across a range of heating, ventilation, air conditioning and mechanical building systems. You will play a key role in ensuring all plant and equipment remain safe, compliant and fully operational.

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform planned preventative and reactive maintenance on heating and air conditioning systems.
  • Maintain evaporative cooling systems and domestic water systems in line with L8 requirements.
  • Diagnose and resolve plant faults efficiently to minimise downtime.
  • Carry out maintenance on mechanical building services equipment including pumps, motors and valves.
  • Ensure maintenance records are accurately completed and updated.
  • Prepare and follow risk assessments and method statements for all work activities.
  • Maintain compliance with all health and safety policies and procedures.
  • Build positive working relationships with colleagues, clients and contractors.
  • Deliver a high standard of customer service at all times.
  • Participate in an out-of-hours call-out and standby rota when required.

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.
