MEICA Commissioning Engineer

Location: London

Contract Rate: GBP450 : GBP500 per day (LTD / Outside IR35)

Engagement Type: Long-Term Contract (AMP8 Framework)

Start Date: Immediate / ASAP

Project Overview

We are seeking an experienced MEICA Commissioning Engineer to join an infrastructure contractor delivering critical water asset upgrades across London.

This long-term contract offers exceptional stability, focusing entirely on the delivery of capital projects within the AMP8 investment cycle. You will oversee the full commissioning lifecycle through to formal client Takeover, leading the testing, integration, and operational verification of complex mechanical, electrical, and ICA systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Commissioning Strategy and Technical Management: Author and manage Project Commissioning Plans and testing procedures from outline design to full site execution. Ensure all MEICA works comply with water authority standards and WIMES regulations. Coordinate with client Asset Operations Teams to integrate new plant with live site assets without disruption.
  • Testing and Asset Takeover: Manage and document Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT), Site Acceptance Testing (SAT), dry testing, and full wet commissioning. Lead the systematic resolution of site snags and performance trials for formal Takeover. Engage early with DSEAR specialists and OEM vendors to complete O and M documentation on schedule.
  • Health and Safety: Establish and enforce rigorous MEICA safe systems of work across all active commissioning zones. Apply strict mechanical/electrical safety rules, acting as an appointed LV Electrical Authorised Person (LV EAP) where 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.
