  • Apply knowledge of mechanical systems and industry standards to engineer safe, robust, and cost-effective solutions.
  • Undertake engineering calculations and design validation activities to verify fitness-for-purpose and statutory compliance.

  • Proven background in mechanical design ideally within regulated sectors — for example, nuclear, energy, oil & gas, process or heavy industry.
  • Strong understanding of mechanical engineering principles, mechanical systems and assemblies, and plant/equipment design.
  • Experience producing or checking 2D drawings and 3D models using CAD software (e.g. AutoCAD, Inventor, or similar).
  • Knowledge of UK and international engineering standards and statutory regulations.
  • Ability to communicate effectively—explaining concepts clearly and engaging with diverse teams and clients.
  • Analytical and detail-focused, with problem-solving skills and a drive for continuous improvement.
  • Full UK driving licence or ability to travel to client/project sites as needed.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
