Design / Building Engineer (Industrial Projects) Day ShiftCirca £55,000 + Bonus + Enhanced BenefitsLocation: Exeter We're looking to speak with engineers who have experience working with building layouts, CAD drawings and site development projects, ideally within an industrial or manufacturing environment. This is an opportunity to join a global engineering business supporting the redevelopment of a newly acquired site, helping shape it from early design stages through to a fully operational production facility. Rather than a purely contracts or senior project role, this position sits closer to the detail. You'll be reviewing layouts, working with external designers, and ensuring what's being designed actually works on site. You'll act as the link between drawings and delivery, supporting contractors, coordinating activity, and making sure designs are practical, safe and fit for purpose. What You'll Be Doing • Supporting the redevelopment of an industrial site into a new production facility, • Working closely with architects and external design teams on building layouts and infrastructure, • Reviewing CAD drawings (AutoCAD or similar) and feeding back on practical site requirements, • Making minor amendments to layouts where needed and ensuring designs are workable on site, • Coordinating contractors during build and installation phases, • Supporting delivery across civil, mechanical and electrical works, • Acting as the point of contact between design teams and site operations, • Reviewing RAMS and ensuring works are carried out safely and in line with CDM regulations, • Supporting utilities integration including power, gas and HVAC systems, • Helping oversee installation of plant, equipment and supporting infrastructure, • Involvement in building a new production facility from the ground up, • Long-term progression into a site services / facilities engineering role, • Stable, well-invested business with strong long-term plans, • Exposure to large-scale site development and industrial projects, • Competitive salary, bonus and enhanced benefits package, • Background as a Design Engineer, Building Engineer, Facilities Engineer or similar, • Experience working with CAD drawings (AutoCAD or similar), including reviewing and ideally making basic edits, • Experience supporting building, refurbishment or site development projects, • Comfortable working with external contractors, architects and design teams, • Understanding of building services such as electrical infrastructure, HVAC or utilities, • Ability to interpret technical drawings and translate them into practical site requirements, • Awareness of site safety, RAMS and CDM regulations Interested? This is a good fit for someone who enjoys the design and layout side of engineering but still wants to stay close to site and see projects delivered properly. If you want something a bit different from a standard maintenance role and like the idea of shaping a site from the ground up, it's worth a conversation.
