You're encouraged to have a growth mindset and are given the space to develop personally and professionally, building a flexible career that works for you.

Role description

The role welcomes applicants with a strong building services engineering background, either through an MEP contracting, consulting or facilities management career. The applicant will have a good working knowledge of commercial mechanical, electrical and public health installations, and a knowledge and understanding of MEP regulations and standards.

Operating within our specialist Technical Due Diligence (TDD) Team within the Lenders, Investors & Insurers Sector, the MEP Engineering Surveyor will support the TDD team on a range of building services surveying and technical assessments within the Real Estate sector, across residential, commercial, and light industrial property asset portfolios.

The primary role of the Engineering Surveyor within the TDD environment is to assess the services installations (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning, Electrical installations, Vertical transportation, Drainage etc.), gain an understanding of their design and configuration, and provide specific insight into the condition, performance and operational risk of the installations by undertaking non-intrusive inspections, reviewing the level of planned preventative maintenance that has been implemented, reviewing statutory compliance certification, identifying defects and outstanding repairs, and assessing future lifecycle replacement requirements, whilst considering factors such as technical obsolescence. The reporting will also identify and assess the commercial factors that will affect client's investments, identify key risks, the severity and quantification of these risks, consideration of lease agreements and assessment of associated capital and operational expenditure liabilities, along with recommendations for mitigation.

The MEP Engineering Surveyor will be actively involved in surveying and inspecting property services installations, preparing defect analysis reports and technical audits, along with direct client engagement. On larger portfolios, management and coordination support will also be a key requirement (working with our approved suppliers) to ensure consistency, quality of output, and timely delivery.

The role provides an opportunity for the engineering surveyor to develop their core MEP knowledge and experience, with knowledge of lease structures, ownership, and lease-investment strategies within a transactional environment. The successful candidate will also become an integral part of our wider Asset Assurance and Management capability within the Lenders, Investors and Insurers sector, providing technical advisory, surveying and project monitoring services for clients across our wider team.

Role accountabilities
  • A clear-thinking person demonstrating attention to detail who is well organised and can operate independently under a broad direction.
  • Prepare both full and summary technical reports with the provision of concise and commercial advice.
  • Represent the company in a professional and diligent manner; meeting, negotiating, and corresponding with clients forming a strong working relationship in true partnership
  • Develop strong working relationships with clients
  • Good written and oral communication skills.
  • Manage client expectations
  • Deliver all work outputs in an accurate and timely manner
  • Provide guidance to junior team members
  • Be presentable and articulate
  • Robust project and programme management capability
  • Ability to work away from the home office
  • Ability to potentially work abroad, on occasion, for short durations and by prior agreement.
  • Eligible for DBS or other security clearance checks

Qualifications & Experience

  • Engineering qualifications ideally having been time served in an electrical/mechanical trade
  • Relevant further educational qualifications - ONC/HNC/HND/Degree (preferred but not a pre-requisite)
  • Experience within a similar role is desirable, for example M&E consulting within the Asset Management sector
  • Experience of working within the built environment
  • Experience of technical report writing and the utilisation of surveying and reporting software
