Mechanical Engineer

About the Opportunity

We're looking for a Modular Delivery Engineer to join a growing pre-construction team and play a key role in delivering innovative DfMA (Design for Manufacture and Assembly) and modular MEP solutions across complex construction projects.

This is an exciting opportunity for an engineer with a passion for offsite construction, modularisation, and technical problem-solving . You'll work across both bid and live project stages, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to develop practical, cost-effective, and sustainable modular solutions from concept through to installation.

If you enjoy challenging traditional construction methods and driving innovation in the built environment, this role offers the chance to make a real impact.

What You'll Be Doing

• Support pre-construction and bid teams by developing technically robust modular delivery strategies.
• Review project drawings, specifications, and technical documentation to identify opportunities for modularisation.
• Develop innovative DfMA solutions that improve buildability, programme, cost, quality, and sustainability.
• Produce RFIs to clarify project requirements and resolve technical queries.
• Work closely with estimating teams to develop modular cost strategies and value-engineered solutions.
• Coordinate with structural, architectural, and MEP consultants to optimise module design and installation.
• Review modular framework designs and provide technical recommendations.
• Prepare technical submissions and supporting documentation for design approvals.
• Coordinate structural analysis packages and review engineering outputs.
• Ensure module designs align with structural requirements, manufacturing capabilities, and project objectives.
• Manage technical interfaces between design teams, manufacturers, suppliers, and site delivery teams throughout the project lifecycle.
• Monitor module installation to ensure compliance with structural verification reports and project standards.
• Capture lessons learned and contribute to continuous improvement across future projects.

About You

We're looking for someone who brings both strong technical expertise and a collaborative mindset.

You'll ideally have:

• A degree or equivalent qualification in Mechanical or Electrical Engineering .
• Experience delivering DfMA, modular construction, or prefabricated MEP solutions .
• A strong understanding of MEP systems, structural interfaces, and modular design principles .
• Experience reviewing BIM models using Autodesk Navisworks, Revizto, or similar software .
• Confidence interpreting engineering drawings, specifications, and technical documentation.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate across multidisciplinary project teams.
• A proactive approach to solving engineering challenges and improving project outcomes.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Commercial awareness and an understanding of sustainable construction principles.

Desirable Experience

• Cross-discipline understanding (Mechanical with Electrical knowledge, or vice versa).
• Experience working on large-scale commercial, mission-critical, healthcare, industrial, or infrastructure projects.

Why Join?

You'll become part of a forward-thinking engineering team that's helping shape the future of construction through modern methods of delivery. Working on technically challenging projects, you'll have the opportunity to influence design from the earliest stages while collaborating with leading engineers, consultants, and contractors.

This role offers excellent opportunities for career development, exposure to high-profile projects, and the chance to contribute to the continued growth of modular construction.
