About us

Hoare Lea is a human-centric and planet-conscious engineering consultancy. We offer intelligent and sustainable solutions to complex design challenges for the built environment throughout the UK and further afield.

We provide a wide range of engineering and consultancy services, including acoustics, air quality, building services (MEP), fire, lighting, security and sustainability to name but a few. Together, our highly skilled teams use technical expertise and problem-solving skills to bring buildings to life. We ensure that whatever the building, its design is outstanding, and its operations meet the needs of the communities it serves.

We are committed to providing an environment where everyone can realise their unique potential. In joining Hoare Lea, you will experience a business that enriches your knowledge, supports your wellbeing, and welcomes your individuality. You’ll have the opportunity to participate in our 9-day fortnight scheme, thriving community groups, varied social and networking events, and extensive professional and technical development schemes. We also offer an extensive benefits package, including private medical cover, electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme, stock options, and up to 30 days of annual leave.

Whatever your ambitions or circumstances, our aim is to enable everyone to develop their knowledge, give their best, and enjoy what they do.

About the role

We have a brand-new opportunity for an Associate or Senior Associate to join our Science and Research team in our London office. You can be mechanically or electrically biased.

It's an exciting time to join our Science and Research team. We have a proven track record working within the sector delivering projects ranging from speculative commercial laboratory fit-outs for large developers to working with higher education and institutional end-users at the forefront of industry research. Working alongside a range of specialist engineers and consultants, you will be joining a collaborative, knowledgeable, highly engaged team who love what they do, and offer a supportive, flexible, and high-performing work culture.

The role has three strands: project leadership, team leadership, and work winning. Strengthening our leadership in these three areas is a key need in our succession plan and will lead to further career opportunities.

In this key and varied role, you can expect to:

• Be responsible for the day-to-day technical delivery of the electrical or mechanical design services for multi-disciplinary projects across the Science and Research sectors.
• Lead the development of initial strategic concepts for projects ensuring solutions are appropriate for the brief and regulatory standards.
• Interact regularly with internal and external stakeholders, ensuring a communicative, collaborative and timely approach to delivery. This is a client-facing role, so you will be attending project meetings and disseminating/translating the brief within the project team.
• Work with the team leader to help monitor fee expenditure, resources and work delivered.
• Mentor and support our ‘next gen’ professionals, including apprentices and graduates.

About you

We are looking for someone who can inspire, with strong leadership and communication skills to help drive the sector and the office forward, contribute to strategy and continue to build on the culture and sense of team created.

As an Associate or Senior Associate, you will be responsible for helping run the team and the office, leading by example and continuing to deliver excellence in your chosen discipline.

The role is instrumental in helping to continue to grow and develop an integrated team of high achievers, as well as seeking new opportunities to develop the business within the Science and Research sector.

To be successful in this role you’ll need:

• Proven experience working as an Associate or Senior Associate Engineer or in a closely related role, with a track record delivering on a variety of complex projects.
• Experience of modern technical delivery processes, and use of relevant software/tools such as BIM, Revit, Electrical OM, Dialux and Relux.
• Demonstrable experience working with clients/contractors/architects in a design-oriented/consultant role.
• Self-awareness, an open mind, and a spirit of generosity.
• Experience in supporting others to develop knowledge, skills, and confidence.
