Senior - Principal Mechanical Engineer
Circa £70,000
Fully Remote (within 2hrs of Central London)
Building Services Consultancy
If you're a mechanical engineer who's ready for genuine ownership of projects rather than being another name on a drawing, this is worth a look. Broad, hands-on scope, real client and site relationships, and a business that's scaling fast enough to need senior people who can help shape how the mechanical function grows.
The Role
- Deliver HVAC, ventilation, public health and above-ground drainage design across a varied sector mix
- Work independently on design while managing client and site relationships directly
- Take on Stage 2 and 3 design work as standard, with Stage 4 experience valued
- Support and mentor junior members of the mechanical team as it continues to grow
- Occasional site surveys (roughly monthly), otherwise fully remote
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
About You
- Solid, broad-based mechanical design experience across HVAC, ventilation, public health and drainage
- Comfortable managing your own workload and client relationships with minimal oversight
- Some experience supporting or training junior engineers
- Revit skills are a bonus, but not essential
The Business
A UK-based consultancy bringing together data analytics, sustainability and engineering to improve how buildings perform. Fully remote by design, with a genuinely flexible setup (they'll ship you a full home office, cover training and professional fees, and offer a hot-desk option for anyone who wants it). The team works across nearly every sector, is currently active on projects including large-scale data centre developments, and has been publicly recognised for innovation in the sustainability space. Culture-wise, expect a business that takes its technical output seriously without taking itself too seriously.
