Salary: Competitive + Excellent Benefits + Career Development
Mechanical Design Engineer
Are you a talented Mechanical Design Engineer looking to take your career to the next level? This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing engineering consultancy delivering innovative solutions across some of the UK’s most complex and technically challenging projects.
Working within the nuclear sector, you’ll become part of a collaborative engineering team supporting major programmes from concept design through to detailed engineering and project delivery. Whether you already have experience in nuclear or are looking to transition from another highly regulated industry, you’ll be supported with ongoing training, professional development, and genuine opportunities for career progression.
This is more than just a design role—it’s an opportunity to develop your technical expertise, work alongside experienced engineers, and build a long-term career within a business that invests in its people.
The Role
As a Mechanical Design Engineer, you will:
* Produce high-quality mechanical designs for a range of complex engineering projects.
* Develop 3D models, detailed engineering drawings, and manufacturing documentation.
* Prepare design calculations, technical specifications, reports, and engineering documentation.
* Work closely with multidisciplinary engineering teams to deliver practical and innovative design solutions.
* Participate in design reviews, hazard studies, and technical workshops.
* Ensure designs comply with industry standards, client specifications, and regulatory requirements.
* Support projects throughout the design lifecycle, from concept and feasibility studies through to detailed design and implementation.
* Liaise with clients, suppliers, and project teams to ensure successful technical delivery.
About You
We’re looking for a Mechanical Design Engineer with:
* Experience in mechanical design within engineering, manufacturing, energy, process, or building services environments.
* Proficiency with 3D CAD software such as SolidWorks, Inventor, Creo, or AutoCAD.
* Strong understanding of engineering principles, materials, manufacturing processes, and mechanical systems.
* The ability to produce detailed engineering drawings and technical documentation.
* Excellent problem-solving skills and a methodical approach to engineering design.
* Strong communication skills and the ability to work effectively within multidisciplinary teams.
* A degree or equivalent qualification in Mechanical Engineering or a related discipline.
Experience within the nuclear sector is advantageous but not essential. We welcome applications from candidates working in industries such as defence, aerospace, energy, oil & gas, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, or heavy engineering who are looking to build a rewarding career in nuclear engineering.
Why Join Us?
* Work on nationally significant engineering projects within the growing nuclear sector.
* Clear career progression with structured support towards Senior Mechanical Engineer, Lead Engineer, and Engineering Manager positions.
* Ongoing professional development, mentoring, and training to expand your technical expertise.
* Exposure to a wide variety of technically challenging design projects throughout the full engineering lifecycle.
* Flexible and collaborative working environment that encourages innovation and continuous learning.
* Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
