Technical Director - Mechanical

Technical Director Mechanical - London - to £85,000 + Package + Autonomy & Flexible Working
Looking for a new opportunity with a genuinely nice company?
All too often we hear of hard-working individuals being absolutely pushed to their limits by businesses that are purely self-serving, with no regard for the employee.
We can offer an exciting opportunity to work with good people, and an honest and genuine leadership team with the vision and desire to drive their business forward, along with the financial resources in place that will make your career journey both professionally and financially rewarding.
They offer a relaxed working environment, a fantastic benefits package, one of the best levels of staff retention in the industry and most importantly, an established and successful Graduate & Apprentice development programme.
Their success has been built off the quality of their staff, the standard of the work they produce and service they provide their clients. Subsequently they have been able to attract some of the best Engineers from leading consultancies such as Arup, Ramboll, Hoare Lea and Buro Happold, amongst others.
The successful Technical Director would be asked to maintain working level contacts both inside and outside the business to generate new business opportunities and secure workload. You will be involved in fee bids, resource planning, team management.
However, as a medium sized MEP and Sustainability Consultancy, you'll still be able to maintain a hands-on role when it comes to do design and project delivery.
Established over a decade ago, the founding partners of this Sustainability and MEP Design Consultancy remain hands on. They are involved in every aspect of the business from recruiting to design, carrying out specialist surveys, maintaining client relationships and employee engagement.
With circa 75+ employees and multiple offices located across the UK, you'll get to work on a fascinating range of projects including listed buildings, net zero carbon masterplans, research labs, landmark hotels, and high-rise mixed-use developments.
With M&E at the heart of the business and not just a small support function to a larger multi-disciplinary offering the Directors really understand the complexity of projects they bid on. That's why their fees allow their engineers to produce quality design and why they're not afraid to take projects from RIBA Stage 1 to 5.
Having already secured much of their fee income for 2024, they are looking for an additional Technical Director who can assist in leading and building the business and drive the consultancy forward.
Duties include -
Leading and developing the London office and maintaining a reputation for providing a high-quality service to their clients.
Business and financial planning
Effective resource planning and workload management
Marketing and business development to ensure a pipeline of opportunities
Technical delivery of reports, design, drawings, etc. in line with agreed standards
