50k-55k plus benefits
Our client is a standout employer, offering a unique and supportive environment for their team. They are genuinely dedicated to their employees, providing better working conditions than most companies. As part of their growth strategy, they plan to expand their current team of six full-time engineers to 10+ through organic growth, ensuring the right projects are prioritized while maintaining their strong company culture.
The firm handles a diverse range of projects, from 100k to 20m, with all team members engaged in every stage-from winning the project to its completion.
The ideal candidate will have:
- A minimum of 5 years' experience in the following sectors:

- Residential
- Commercial
- Education
Desirable skills and experience include:

- An interest in business development, including generating new business, writing proposals, and approaching potential clients.
In addition, the firm offers a flexible work arrangement with up to 3-5 days of remote working per week, ensuring a healthier work-life balance. However, this flexibility requires self-motivation and proactive engagement. Strong communication skills are crucial as most team interactions are conducted via Teams or phone calls.
As part of a two-person team in the Midlands, you'll also collaborate with a larger team of four based in London. Despite the geographical distance, the remote-working culture ensures a close-knit atmosphere, with regular social events.
Although you may initially work on projects across both the Midlands and London, your primary focus will be on Midlands-based projects.
