Senior / Principal Mechanical Engineer – Building Services
Salary: DOE + Bonus
Location: Ormskirk (2/3 days in office per week)
Type: Permanent
We are recruiting a Senior or Principal Mechanical Engineer to join a growing Building Services consultancy delivering a varied portfolio of projects across commercial, residential, care, refurbishment, and Building Safety Act-related schemes.
This is a key appointment within a small, flexible consultancy where you'll have genuine autonomy, direct access to senior decision-makers, and the opportunity to take technical ownership of projects.
For an experienced Senior Engineer looking to progress, or an established Principal Engineer wanting greater autonomy, this is an opportunity to play an important role within a growing consultancy.

- Detailed calculations and system design
- Heating, ventilation, cooling, and domestic water services

About You
We're looking for an experienced Mechanical Building Services Design Engineer, ideally with 5+ years' post-qualification experience within a consultancy environment.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You'll need strong technical design and calculation capability and the confidence to independently take ownership of projects.
Experience across HVAC, heating, ventilation, cooling, and domestic water services within an MEP / Building Services consultancy environment would be particularly relevant.
Dedicated CAD support is already available, so the focus is firmly on engineering, technical design, and project delivery rather than drawing production.
The level of appointment can be tailored around the successful candidate, making the opportunity suitable for either an experienced Senior Mechanical Engineer or Principal Mechanical Engineer.
