I’m currently working with a highly regarded cost and project management consultancy that is continuing to grow within the data centre sector. With a strong pipeline of work — much of it delivering projects for Amazon — this is a brilliant opportunity for a Junior Engineer looking to build a long-term career in one of the fastest-growing areas of construction and engineering.


🔧 The Role
This company is looking to appoint a Junior Engineer on a permanent basis, with either a mechanical or electrical bias. This role would suit someone coming from a trades background or a graduate who is hungry to learn, develop, and get hands-on experience on live projects.

You’ll be supporting senior engineers and project teams on data centre projects across the UK. The role will involve travel and occasional overnight stays, with all hotels, travel, and expenses fully paid.
Full training and future professional courses can be funded — the key requirement is attitude. They’re looking for someone motivated, curious, and willing to get stuck in.

• Support the production and review of technical drawings, layouts, and schematics (mechanical and/or electrical)
• Help with cost planning, valuations, and change control, particularly on MEP packages
• Attend site visits and inspections, reporting on progress, quality, and compliance with specifications
• Assist in the coordination between design teams, contractors, and clients
• Support the review of method statements, technical submissions, and commissioning plans
• Gather, analyse, and organise project data, drawings, and documentation
• Help track project programmes, risks, and deliverables
• Support testing, commissioning, and handover processes
• Ensure work complies with current regulations, standards, and best practice
• Learn and develop an understanding of HVAC systems, power distribution, lighting, fire systems, and controls (depending on bias)
• Build knowledge of specialist environments such as data centres, critical infrastructure, and complex MEP installations

🌟 Why Apply?

• Entry into the data centre market — one of the most secure and future-proof sectors
• Exposure to major global clients, including Amazon
• Genuine investment in training and career development
• Supportive consultancy environment with clear progression
• Competitive package including:
  • £30,000 – £40,000 salary
  • Car allowance
  • All travel & accommodation expenses paid
  • 25 days annual leave + your birthday off

This is an ideal opportunity for an ambitious Junior Engineer who wants more than just a job — it’s a chance to build a career with a consultancy that’s going places.
