£60K Plus Package
London Permanent BMS

We’re working with an established BMS business looking for an experienced Commissioning / Project Engineer to join their team, supporting major retail, hospitality and leisure customers.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys the technical side of BMS but wants to take on more project ownership, with a clear route into larger projects and Project Management if that’s where you want to progress.

Role Overview

This permanent position offers a salary of £60,000, with around 60–70% of the current workload based in and around London. You’ll combine hands-on BMS commissioning with ownership of smaller projects from initial requirements through to handover, while supporting larger works alongside experienced Project Managers.

The work is primarily across existing customer estates, including lifecycle upgrades, energy projects and BMS improvements rather than long-term construction sites.

Key Responsibilities

  • Commission BMS systems, including software and graphics.
  • Take ownership of smaller projects from requirement through to completion.
  • Produce project programmes, technical documentation and site reports.
  • Carry out site surveys, panel modifications and updates to control drawings.
  • Liaise directly with customers, subcontractors and the wider project team.
  • Support larger projects alongside dedicated Project Managers.
  • Help develop and deliver BMS solutions across major customer estates.
  • Ensure project documentation, risk assessments and commissioning information are kept up to date.

The Ideal Candidate

  • Experience with at least one major BMS system such as Trend, Tridium or Schneider.
  • Good understanding of HVAC systems and BMS control strategies.
  • Strong commissioning experience, with the ability to work across software, graphics and field-based engineering.
  • An existing Project Engineer or an experienced Commissioning Engineer looking to take on more project responsibility.
  • Confident dealing directly with customers and taking ownership of your own work.
  • Strong organisation, time management and attention to detail.
  • Interested in developing broader project experience while remaining technically involved.
  • Comfortable with occasional travel outside London when projects require it.

What’s on Offer

  • £60,000 salary
  • Enhanced company car / vehicle package
  • Permanent, full-time position
  • Flexibility around where you work
  • Training across major BMS platforms including Trend, Tridium, Siemens and Schneider
  • Opportunity to take ownership of your own smaller projects
  • Ongoing technical and project development
  • Progression into larger projects and Project Management if desired
  • Exposure to major retail, hospitality and leisure customer estates

Ready to take the next step?

If you’re an experienced BMS Engineer looking for more ownership while staying technically involved, we’d be keen to hear from you.
