Would you like to join an independent, employee-owned Building Services Consultancy where you can have a genuine influence on projects, people and the future direction of the business?
This established consultancy has ambitious but sustainable growth plans and an excellent reputation for delivering technically challenging projects. With a team of approximately 26, they are large enough to deliver significant schemes, yet small enough that your contribution will be visible and genuinely valued.
As a Principal Electrical Engineer, you will take technical ownership of projects from initial feasibility and concept design through detailed design, tender and construction.
Rather than simply managing from a distance, you will remain technically involved whilst developing client relationships and supporting and mentoring Graduate, Junior and Intermediate Engineers.
Projects are diverse and include Healthcare, Commercial, Education, Defence, Leisure, Residential and Public Sector, with the consultancy having a particularly strong reputation within Healthcare.
You will be involved with:
- Leading Electrical Building Services designs from concept through to completion.
- Surveys, feasibility studies, option appraisals and lifecycle studies.
- Producing and reviewing calculations, specifications, schedules, drawings and technical reports.
- Leading BIM/Revit coordination and championing ElectricalOM.
- Attending and chairing design, technical, value engineering and risk workshops.
- Tender reviews, contractor recommendations and construction-stage involvement.
- Developing low-energy and low-carbon solutions, including Net Zero, TM54 and TM65 considerations.
- Mentoring and developing less experienced Engineers, including supporting those working towards Chartership.
- Building long-term client relationships and contributing to the continued growth of the consultancy.
You should ideally be a degree-qualified Electrical or Building Services Engineer with good UK Building Services Consultancy experience. Chartered status, or working towards it, would be advantageous but is not essential. More important will be your technical ability, communication skills and confidence dealing directly with Clients.
Why join?
Importantly, this is an Employee Owned Trust (EOT), giving employees the opportunity to benefit directly from the continued success of the business.
Alongside a competitive salary you will receive an annual Employee Owned Trust bonus, Private Medical Insurance, Life Assurance, pension, paid professional memberships, Cycle to Work Scheme and ongoing training and Chartership support.
You can be based from either Surrey or London with hybrid working available.
If you are an experienced Electrical Building Services Design Engineer looking for a genuine Principal position where you can remain technically hands-on, develop others and have a voice in an employee-owned consultancy, please get in touch for a confidential conversation.
