Principal Mechanical Engineer (Water Utilities)

Hybrid Working Model

Are you ready to join a dynamic M&E team? Do you excel in collaborating with colleagues on both national and international projects? If you possess a strong background in Mechanical Infrastructure Design, this opportunity may be the perfect fit for you.

Innovate for a Sustainable Future
We are seeking a Principal Mechanical Engineer with expertise in Water Utilities to enhance our mechanical capabilities on Infrastructure projects. Your main responsibility will be to execute engineering tasks related to the design of components such as water supply and wastewater systems, along with non-infrastructure apparatus. This encompasses pressurized mains, pumping stations, treatment facilities, and other relevant equipment. While your role will be centered in the UK, you will have the chance to engage daily with colleagues from our global offices. Additionally, there may be opportunities to expand your involvement in other areas within the MEP discipline, including client-side or site-based roles across various major infrastructure projects.

Your primary responsibilities will include:

  • Contributing to the design of projects for a diverse clientele
  • Planning design tasks and deliverables in collaboration with the broader MEP team
  • Developing and ensuring the technical integrity of designs, utilizing appropriate software
  • Ensuring adherence to both local and international standards
  • Coordinating multi-disciplinary project aspects
  • Mentoring junior engineers in design practices
  • Fostering relationships with clients and other stakeholders

Your Skills. Our Team. Together We Shape the Future.
Success in this role hinges on your willingness to collaborate with those around you, including colleagues, partners, and clients. Building relationships is achieved through respectful interactions and fulfilling commitments. You should be open to new ideas and continuously seek ways to enhance your work.
In addition, you will possess:

  • A degree in mechanical engineering or a related field
  • Chartered Engineer status (or equivalent)
  • Relevant experience in mechanical systems design
  • The capability to deliver technically sound solutions independently and, when necessary, serve as a discipline lead
  • A comprehensive understanding of water-based systems, including pressurized water supply mains, pumping stations, and treatment facilities
  • Experience in hydraulic modeling of pipe networks, including steady-state and transient analysis
  • Knowledge of pipe support and stress analysis
  • Familiarity with other mechanical equipment, such as lifting devices and actuated hydraulic gates, is advantageous
  • Proficiency in 3D and BIM design
  • Awareness of relevant Water Industry Specifications (WIMES)
  • Experience applying CDM regulations to design tasks
  • Background in design and build projects, including potential site representation, is beneficial
