About the role

An international M&E contractor is hiring a mechanical lead for a data centre build in Denmark. You will own the mechanical package on site: engineering, installation, commissioning, and handover.

  • Own the mechanical programme: progress, vendors, sub contractors, and test packs
  • Review design for constructability and close technical issues without delay
  • Drive procurement, receipt verification, and RFI control
  • Walk down P&IDs and layouts and hold the quality line
  • Lead technical meetings with the design team, contractors, and the site team
  • Mentor, coach, and allocate work across the mechanical engineers
  • Keep EHS and quality systems tight on the mechanical package

What you will need

  • Degree in building services or mechanical engineering, or a senior trades equivalent
  • At least 5 years' project engineering with a mechanical contractor, with lead or package experience
  • A record of delivering mechanical work on data centre, pharma, industrial, or mission critical projects
  • Able to walk down mechanical systems and sign off compliance
  • Strong on submittals, commissioning, commercial awareness, and people leadership
  • Used to running a package, not only a single system
