Mechanical Design Engineer

Manchester Power Generation, Energy Infrastructure & BESS

Mechanical Design Engineer – Manchester – Permanent – Power Generation, Energy Infrastructure & Battery Energy Storage

This is a hands–on engineering position focused on the design and development of complex energy projects from concept through to commissioning and operation.

You’ll be involved in the mechanical and process design of CHP, trigeneration and battery energy storage projects, working closely with project delivery, electrical engineering and installation teams.

Typical responsibilities will include:

• Developing mechanical and process designs for energy infrastructure projects
• Producing engineering documentation including PFDs, P&IDs and technical specifications
• Pipework and pump sizing calculations
• Ventilation and mechanical systems design
• Supporting system layouts and equipment selection
• Liaising with suppliers, project managers and clients
• Carrying out site surveys and providing technical support during installation and commissioning
• Supporting safe and compliant project delivery in line with CDM and engineering best practice

What We’re Looking For

• Power generation
• CHP
• District heating
• Energy centres
• Process plant
• Industrial mechanical systems
• Utilities
• Renewable energy
• Water treatment
• Oil & Gas
• HVAC and industrial ventilation systems

You should ideally have:

• HNC/HND or Degree in Mechanical Engineering or similar
• At least 5 years’ experience delivering engineering projects
• Mechanical design experience involving pipework, pumps and process systems
• Experience producing or reviewing engineering documentation including PFDs and P&IDs
• AutoCAD 3D or similar CAD experience
• Good understanding of health & safety and CDM requirements
• Full UK Driving Licence

Why Consider It?

This is an opportunity to work on technically interesting, real–world projects where engineering still drives decision–making.

You’ll gain exposure to:

• CHP
• Trigeneration
• Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
• Large–scale industrial energy infrastructure
• Low–carbon technologies

You’ll be working within an established engineering organisation that continues to invest heavily in both technology and people.

If you’re a Mechanical Design Engineer who enjoys solving practical engineering problems and would like to play a role in the future of energy infrastructure, we’d be interested in hearing from you.
