Pre-opening Site Engineer for Luxury Spa


Ahead of our exciting new opening late next year, we are seeking a Site Engineer with proven experience in high-end hospitality or wellness construction (spas, hotels, resorts) to join our core team and help deliver this iconic project to the highest standards.


Bulldozer Group is a renowned name in international luxury hospitality, with critically acclaimed sites across Europe and Dubai. With our ambitious expansion into wellness, we are launching Sonara, a flagship luxury spa in Chelsea offering immersive bathhouse experience, a range of therapies and treatments, private suites and bespoke high-end finishes.


As a Site Engineer, you will:


  • Oversee day-to-day technical execution and delivery of the construction works on site, ensuring that quality, schedule and budget targets are met
  • Read, interpret and coordinate architectural, structural and MEP drawings to ensure seamless integration of all systems
  • Provide setting-out, level surveys and accurate levelling to comply with design specifications
  • Monitor installation of MEP systems (mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC), ensuring correct integration, commissioning and testing
  • Supervise waterproofing works for wet zones, pools, steam rooms, saunas and other hydro-thermal elements
  • Oversee the installation of luxury finishes (tiling, stone, bespoke joinery) and specialist spa equipment (plunge pools, hyperbaric chambers, ice atelier, etc.)
  • Conduct regular inspections and quality control to ensure that workmanship meets brand standards
  • Resolve technical issues proactively, escalating and coordinating with consultants, contractors and the design team as needed
  • Maintain strong site discipline: enforce HSE standards, carry out site inductions and toolbox talks
  • Prepare and manage daily/weekly reports, progress updates, snag lists and commissioning documentation
  • Support the Project Manager in handover to operations, ensuring logbooks, as-built drawings and O&M instructions are complete.

Key Requirements


  • Degree or diploma in Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering or Building Services Engineering
  • Proven experience in high-end hospitality or wellness construction (spas, resorts, hotels)
  • Strong understanding of MEP systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical)
  • In-depth knowledge of waterproofing, especially for spa environments, swimming pools, steam rooms, etc.
  • Experience with high-quality finishes, tiling, stonework and craftsmanship typical of luxury developments
  • Integration of spa-specific equipment (plunge pools, thermal cabins, oxygen therapy, etc.)
  • Excellent attention to detail
  • Excellent communication: you will liaise with fit-out contractors, designers, specialist consultants and senior stakeholders
  • Strong problem-solving skills and technical judgement
  • Ability to work under pressure, manage multiple subcontractors and deliver to tight schedules

Preferred Experience:


  • Worked with luxury developers or boutique wellness operators
  • Experience working on fit-out projects (rather than pure shell construction)
  • Commissioning experience (MEP, hydro-thermal systems)

Why Join Us?


  • Be part of a landmark wellness project in central London, inspired by an internationally renowned concept
  • Work with world-class architects, designers and wellness consultants to deliver a truly unique spa environment
  • Opportunity for long-term career growth
  • Competitive salary and benefits package (up to £70,000, depending on experience)
  • A collaborative, high-performance culture with an emphasis on quality, innovation and design excellence
