About the Role
An established electrical contractor based in Hull is expanding into the air-conditioning and mechanical sector and is looking for an experienced Air Conditioning Engineer who is keen to progress into estimating, project management and eventually management of the new division.
The company works across commercial, modular and renewable projects throughout the UK and has built an established reputation for quality workmanship and professional project delivery.
Initially, the role will be hands-on, covering installation, servicing and project delivery, while also becoming involved in surveys, estimating, planning and client liaison.
As the department grows, the position will develop into a senior role with responsibility for managing projects, engineers, subcontractors, quotations and the overall development of the air-conditioning division.
Key Responsibilities
- Installing and commissioning air-conditioning systems
- Carrying out servicing and maintenance
- Surveying projects and identifying requirements
- Preparing estimates and quotations
- Producing material and labour requirements
- Reading drawings and technical specifications
- Liaising with clients, contractors, suppliers and manufacturers
- Planning installations and organising materials
- Managing smaller projects from quotation through to completion
- Monitoring project costs and labour requirements
- Supervising engineers, trainees and subcontractors where required
- Ensuring work meets relevant regulations and manufacturer requirements
- Providing a professional service to customers
As the division develops, you will have the opportunity to progress into:
- Air-conditioning estimating and tendering
- Project management
- System design and selection
- Budgeting and job costing
- Procurement
- Managing engineers and subcontractors
- Client and project meetings
- Developing new and existing client relationships
- Supporting recruitment and team growth
- Helping establish and manage the air-conditioning division
About You
The ideal candidate will have:
- Minimum 5 years' air-conditioning experience
- City & Guilds 2079 / F-Gas qualification
- NVQ Level 3 or equivalent in air-conditioning/refrigeration
- Full UK driving licence
- Experience with split, multi-split and commercial air-conditioning systems
- Good understanding of installation practices and regulations
- Ability to read drawings and specifications
- Good communication and organisational skills
- A professional approach and pride in their work
- An interest in progressing beyond purely hands-on engineering
Experience in estimating, project management, design, tendering, job costing or supervising engineers would be advantageous but is not essential.
CSCS, SSSTS/SMSTS, electrical qualifications and experience working within commercial or modular construction would also be beneficial.
The Opportunity
This is an opportunity for an experienced Air Conditioning Engineer who wants to help build and develop a new division within an established business, with genuine progression into estimating, project management and senior management as the department grows.
Projects are located throughout the UK, so some travel and working away from home will be required.
