Job Title: Mechanical Engineer – Flagship Shopping Centre
Location: North West London
Hours: Mon – Fri. 8AM – 5PM
Salary: £40k + Overtime + Excellent Benefits

The Opportunity

An established Facilities Management provider is offering a standout opportunity for a Mechanical Engineer to join the on-site team at a major shopping centre in North West London. This is not a static, back-of-house role. It’s a high-visibility position on a busy, modern retail destination where engineering standards directly shape the experience of thousands of visitors every day. The successful candidate will be part of a professional, well-supported team responsible for keeping the centre running at its best. For the right engineer, this role offers variety, stability, and long-term progression within a secure contract.

What Makes This Role Different

• A large, well-maintained site with a wide range of mechanical plant and systems
• A supportive on-site team with strong leadership and clear structure
• A role that offers real variety, not repetitive maintenance
• Consistent investment in the site and engineering standards
• The chance to work in a lively, fast-moving environment where no two days are the same

Key Responsibilities

• Deliver both planned preventive maintenance (PPM) and reactive works across mechanical systems
• Maintain and repair HVAC plant, pumps, motors, pipework, valves, and water systems
• Respond quickly to faults, ensuring minimal disruption to retailers and the public
• Monitor plant performance and take a proactive approach to maintenance
• Work closely with subcontractors and site teams to keep standards high
• Ensure full compliance with health & safety and statutory requirements
• Maintain clear and accurate records of all works carried out

The Ideal Candidate

This role suits a hands-on engineer who enjoys being part of a busy site and takes pride in keeping systems running smoothly. Someone who can stay organised, communicate well, and handle the pace of a live retail environment will do well here.

Essential:

• Mechanical qualification (NVQ / C&G Level 2 or equivalent)
• Experience working within commercial, retail, or large public buildings
• Strong understanding of mechanical building services systems
• Solid fault-finding and problem-solving skills

Desirable:

• Previous experience in a similar high-footfall site
• Mechanical qualification (NVQ / C&G Level 3 or equivalent)
• Basic knowledge of BMS or controls systems

What’s On Offer:

• Competitive salary with regular overtime opportunities
• Stable, long-term contract with a respected FM provider
• Exposure to a wide range of plant and systems
• Opportunity to develop skills and progress within the business
• A professional, well-run site where engineering is taken seriously

Why Apply?

This is a role for engineers who want more than just a job. It offers security, variety, and the chance to be part of a site that’s constantly active and evolving. For someone who enjoys being hands-on, working as part of a solid team, and seeing the direct impact of their work every day, this is a strong move.

Apply now to secure a position on one of North West London’s busiest and most dynamic sites.
