You will be working across a broad range of engineering projects, including both new build and refurbishment projects across, predominantly, the North West of England and local to Preston, Lancaster, and Carlisle. Projects will be based in the Education, Residential, Healthcare, and Industrial sector in the main but they are not restrictive on the projects that they undertake.

They have strong traditions within the business, not just in the work that they do but also the social events that are done. The annual electrical engineers versus mechanical engineers Darts match is well contested and they have a couple of work outings per year, most recently an evening out in Manchester. Little perks including these mentioned are why they have a solid core of engineers working for them and a number of their staff have long tenure with the business.
