Full job description
At Sureserve Energy Services UK, excellence is not just an expectation; it's our standard. We are at the forefront of providing stellar asset and energy services across the UK. Our mission is simple yet powerful: to elevate the quality of life in the communities we serve by innovating and improving the spaces where people reside, work, and gather.
This is a pivotal role, based in Livingston, established to bridge the gap between high-level project management and technical design execution. Leading a small team of design engineers, you will supervise the full project lifecycle, spanning investment-grade proposals, carbon reduction strategies, and complex renewable energy system integrations (including Solar PV, ASHP, and emerging technologies) for both residential and commercial portfolios.
This will suit a commercially-minded, technically robust leader who can drive environmental change, optimize design team workflows, and deliver cost-effective, future-ready energy solutions that maximize ROI for clients.
Key Responsibilities
- Supervise, mentor, and develop a multidisciplinary team of renewable design engineers while managing the overall design pipeline.
- Allocate design resources effectively to support Project Managers, Contracts Managers, and field installation teams.
- Conduct technical reviews to ensure strict numerical accuracy, design integrity, and compliance across all team outputs.
- Optimize Solar PV, Air Source Heat Pump, and heat recovery designs to maximize long-term reliability and cost-effectiveness.
- Guide the team in translating client briefs into high-margin, innovative investment-grade energy proposals.
- Analyze measured energy data and fuel usage to help clients lower carbon emissions and improve portfolio ROI.
- Manage complex design projects through their full lifecycle, from initial energy assessment to final installation sign-off.
- Ensure all system designs meet existing Building Regulations, planning policies, and future legislative shifts.
- Provide expert troubleshooting and swift design revisions during the retrofit and installation phases.
- Maintain an up-to-date technical understanding of emerging renewable technologies (e.g., hydrogen gas, advanced storage).
Experience & Qualifications
- Degree in a relevant discipline (e.g., Design Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Sustainability, Renewable Energy, or Systems Design).
- Valid Driver’s License (required for site visits and client presentations).
- Proven experience mentoring junior engineers or leading technical project components within a fast-paced engineering environment.
- Strong practical experience designing and specifying domestic and commercial energy efficiency solutions, specifically Solar PV and Heat Pump technologies.
- Demonstrated success in translating energy data into financial savings, carbon-reduction strategies, and persuasive client proposals.
- Highly competent in technical design software, database systems, Microsoft Office, and the Adobe suite.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a proven ability to present complex technical data clearly to non-technical commercial clients and multi-disciplinary teams.
- Hands-on experience developing functional strategies and procedures for large-scale carbon reduction.
- Deep knowledge of retrofit frameworks, planning permissions, and Building Regulation compliance documentation within the built environment.
What we offer:
- Base salary up to £35,000
- 29 days annual leave (includes statutory bank holidays and Christmas/New Year closure).
- Employer-contributed pension scheme
- Enhanced Maternity/Paternity leave, Flexible Benefits (Bike to Work, Health Shield care plan), and Employee Assistance Program.
