Overview

Senior / Principal Mechanical Engineer – Newcastle. Hybrid working | Excellent career progression | National consultancy with local presence. Energi People are seeking an experienced Senior or Principal Mechanical Engineer to join one of our global consultancy clients in Newcastle, to play a key role in delivering a wide range of projects across the UK. This is a fantastic opportunity to hit the ground running and, in the next few years, step into a leadership role as we grow our mechanical engineering capability in the region.

The Role

You’ll be working on a diverse project portfolio, including:

• Healthcare projects (e.g. hospital ward extensions, with knowledge of HTMs an advantage)
• Energy infrastructure (supporting industrial and infrastructure developments)
• Council frameworks and industrial facilities

As part of our multidisciplinary MEP team, you will:

• Lead the design and delivery of mechanical engineering projects from concept to completion
• Undertake site-based work across the North East of England
• Support and mentor junior engineers, helping develop the next generation of talent
• Work collaboratively with CAD/Revit/BIM specialists (hands-on BIM/Revit skills a bonus)
• Contribute to the growth of our healthcare sector offering and wider business

About You

We are looking for someone who can bring:

• A proven track record in mechanical building services consultancy (not production/manufacturing engineering)
• Strong technical knowledge, ideally with exposure to healthcare or energy/infrastructure projects
• Experience in site-based work and client-facing roles
• The ability to work independently and take ownership of projects
• Based in, or willing to travel regularly to, the North East (Newcastle office)
• Familiarity with SCADA/industrial control systems is advantageous but not essential

Why Join

• Career progression – with an associate close to retirement, this role offers a clear path to leading the mechanical group in Newcastle and gaining exposure to financial and business management
• Variety of work – from healthcare and infrastructure to aviation and local authority frameworks
• Hybrid working – typically 2+ days in the office, with Wednesdays as an MEP anchor day
• Be part of a nationally active consultancy with strong local presence – large enough to win major projects, small enough to avoid the bureaucracy of bigger firms

Seniority level

• Mid-Senior level

Employment type

• Full-time

Job function

• Design, Engineering, and Consulting
• Industries: Engineering Services and Business Consulting and Services
