Engineering

Design, project and chartered engineers across mechanical, electrical and civil disciplines.

Hiring in Engineering

Engineering covers the consultancies, contractors and product businesses that design and build physical things — buildings, energy infrastructure, machinery and the systems that run them.

Roles here turn on accreditation and sector exposure as much as on raw skill, so we screen for chartership status, project scale and the standards a candidate has actually worked to.

What makes it hard

  • Chartered engineers are in short supply and rarely on the open market for long.
  • Project-based hiring creates peaks that in-house teams cannot resource fast enough.
  • Sector accreditation requirements rule out candidates who look perfect on paper.
  • Renewables and infrastructure programmes are pulling experienced engineers away from traditional employers.
