Senior Associate Mechanical Engineer – Healthcare (Leeds)

For mechanical engineers who want their decisions to matter — clinically, technically, and strategically.

If you've spent years delivering complex healthcare buildings and are now ready to set direction rather than just follow it, this role puts you exactly where you should be: shaping strategy, leading programmes, and influencing outcomes that genuinely impact patient care.

This is a senior leadership role with regional influence, designed for a Mechanical Engineer who understands that in healthcare, engineering performance isn't optional — it's critical.

The Opportunity

You'll take ownership of mechanical strategy across major, high-risk healthcare programmes, ensuring systems meet strict clinical, operational, and sustainability requirements from concept through delivery.

You'll operate as a trusted advisor to senior clients and stakeholders, balancing:

Technical excellence

Clinical compliance

Commercial performance

Programme certainty

In short: fewer surprises, better buildings, safer outcomes.

What you'll be doing

Setting and leading mechanical design strategy across large-scale healthcare schemes

Acting as a senior client partner, presenting solutions and guiding key decisions

Leading multi-disciplinary teams with accountability for quality, risk, and delivery

Managing resources, fees, governance, and commercial performance

Coaching associates, senior engineers, and future leaders

Driving innovation, modern methods of design and delivery, and technical advantage

Representing mechanical engineering authority within project teams and external forums

What will make you a strong fit

Extensive experience delivering healthcare-sector mechanical engineering projects

Proven leadership on major or highly complex schemes

Deep technical expertise across HVAC and mechanical building services

Confidence influencing senior stakeholders, clinicians, and project leaders

Strong commercial judgement and delivery management capability

Proficiency in Revit, AutoCAD, and associated digital tools

Excellent knowledge of British Standards, HTMs, and healthcare regulations

Why Senior Mechanical Engineers choose roles like this:

Because it's where:

Engineering decisions directly affect patient safety and clinical outcomes

You lead strategy, not just packages

Your experience shapes teams, programmes, and future leaders

Technical authority and commercial awareness finally sit in the same seat

If you're ready to move from project delivery to engineering leadership with real consequence, this role is built for you.

And yes — your spreadsheets will still be busy. But this time, they'll be shaping hospitals, not just chasing fees.

Salary: £63,250 – £79,500 + £5,580 Allowance + Travel Allowance
