This is an opportunity to join a growing, design-led building services consultancy with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality engineering across a wide range of sectors. With ambitious growth plans and a collaborative, people-first culture, they're looking to appoint an Associate Director - Electrical to play a key role in their Oxford office.

The Opportunity

- Leading, mentoring, and growing a team of engineers
- Supporting the strategic growth of the office, including winning new work
- Collaborating with other disciplines to deliver integrated design solutions

What They're Looking For
- Strong background in electrical building services design (consultancy)
- Proven experience operating at Principal / Associate level or above
- Track record of leading projects and managing client relationships
- Strong technical knowledge across power, lighting, and building systems design
- Experience leading and developing teams
- Commercial awareness and an interest in business growth / BD
- Chartered (or working towards) preferred

Why This Role Stands Out
- Leadership position with real influence over a growing office
- Opportunity to build and shape a team
- Clear route to Director level
- 9-day fortnight - genuine commitment to work-life balance
- Enhanced pension contribution
- Collaborative, supportive culture with no micromanagement
- Strong focus on development, progression, and long-term growth
