Job Description

Role: Trainee / Assistant Mechanical Building Services Engineer
Location: Surrey (Office-based with site visits across London & SE)
Salary: Competitive, depending on experience + 6-Monthly Profit-Share Bonus
About Us
We are recruiting for a well-established M&E building services company based in Surrey, delivering end-to-end design, contract management, installation, and commissioning for high-profile clients across London and the South East. Projects span HVAC, heating, plumbing, drainage, and BMS, with contract values ranging from £10k to £3m.
The Opportunity
We are looking for an ambitious candidate to learn every facet of building services from the ground up, with a clear career pathway toward full Project Management and beyond.
Initially office-based, you will work alongside senior engineers to gain hands-on experience across design, estimating, procurement, and project delivery. As your confidence and technical knowledge grow, you will take ownership of your own projects from initial concept through to final commissioning and hand-over.
About You
This role is ideal for either:
  • A Mechanical Engineering graduate (BEng/BSC/HND) looking for a structured, hands-on start to their career.
  • An improver or experienced HVAC / Building Services technician or engineer looking to transition off the tools/site into full project management.
You should be commercially aware, eager to learn, and looking for a long-term role with direct career progression.
What Is On Offer
  • Competitive starting salary reviewed against performance
  • 6-monthly company profit-share bonus scheme
  • 20 days holiday + Bank Holidays + additional paid days off during the Christmas shutdown
  • Full mentorship and technical training across all mechanical disciplines
  • Long-term career progression into senior project management
