Senior Mechanical Building Services Engineer (Contract)
Location: Enfield, North London (Hybrid)
Contract: 4-6 Months
Rate: Up to £45 per hour LTD
Start Date: 1st August 2026
The Opportunity
Linked Engineering is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Mechanical Building Services Engineer to support the delivery of a high-end residential conversion in Enfield.
The project involves the refurbishment and conversion of a Grade II Listed building into 14 luxury apartments.
The existing design has been completed, however the successful contractor will play a key role in reviewing and refining the design before supporting the project through construction. This is a hands-on delivery role, working closely with both the design and site teams to ensure the project is delivered successfully.
This is expected to be an initial 4-6 month contract, with the possibility of further work beyond this project.
The Role
You will be responsible for taking the mechanical design from RIBA Stage 4C through Stage 5, supporting construction and resolving technical issues as they arise.
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.
Typical duties will include:
- Reviewing and redesigning elements of the existing mechanical building services design
- Carrying out site surveys and technical inspections
- Coordinating with the electrical design where services interface
- Producing and reviewing technical drawings and design information
- Responding to contractor RFIs and technical queries
- Attending design and coordination meetings
- Supporting installation and resolving on-site engineering issues
- Ensuring designs remain compliant whilst meeting programme requirements
What We're Looking For
Applicants should have:
- Strong Mechanical Building Services design experience
- Previous experience delivering residential, refurbishment or complex building projects
- Experience through RIBA Stage 5
- Good understanding of MEP coordination
- A working appreciation of electrical building services (you won't be expected to design electrical systems but should understand how the disciplines interact)
- Ability to work independently and liaise confidently with contractors, consultants and project teams
