The Opportunity

A growing specialist supplier to the M&E sector is looking to appoint a Technical Design & Projects Coordinator to support its engineering function.

This is not a sales role. Instead, you'll become the technical hub between the sales team, customers, CAD resources and fabrication partners, helping turn engineering enquiries into practical, deliverable solutions.

You'll take project information from the sales team and be responsible for developing drawings, reviewing designs, coordinating external CAD support where required, and ensuring technical specifications are translated into accurate manufacturing and installation solutions.

This role would suit someone who enjoys solving technical problems, working with drawings and coordinating projects behind the scenes rather than being involved in new business sales.

The Role

Reporting into the Sales Director, you'll play a key role in supporting engineering enquiries and ensuring projects move smoothly from concept through to manufacture and delivery.

Key Responsibilities

Produce and amend technical drawings using CAD software
Interpret customer requirements, sketches and specifications
Support the sales team with technical input on engineering enquiries
Work closely with external CAD providers and fabrication suppliers
Review drawings and ensure designs are practical and manufacturable
Coordinate the design and drawing approval process
Liaise with suppliers to ensure projects are delivered to specification
Assist with project tracking and technical documentation
Identify any design issues and propose practical solutions
Support occasional site visits when technical input is required
Act as the internal technical point of contact for engineering-related enquiries

What We're Looking For

Previous experience within Building Services, MEP, Mechanical Engineering or a related technical discipline
Experience using AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Revit or similar design software
Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings
Understanding of fabrication, pipework, bracketry, support systems or mechanical installations would be highly beneficial
Good organisational skills and attention to detail
Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously
Comfortable communicating with suppliers, contractors and internal stakeholders
A practical problem solver who enjoys technical challenges

Ideal Backgrounds

We would be particularly interested in candidates from backgrounds such as:

Building Services Design Engineer
Mechanical Design Engineer
CAD Technician
Revit Technician
MEP Coordinator
Mechanical Project Engineer
Technical Engineer
Design Draughtsperson

Why Apply?

Genuine technical role with minimal sales responsibility
Opportunity to work on a variety of bespoke engineering projects
Mix of CAD design, technical coordination and project support
Stable office-based position with long-term growth potential
Chance to become a key part of a growing engineering function
Work closely with experienced sales and operational teams to bring projects from concept through to delivery

This is an excellent opportunity for a technically-minded individual who enjoys working with drawings, solving engineering problems and coordinating projects behind the scenes, without the pressure of front-line sales targets.
