  • Manage own time and represent the business on complex project sites

Requirements:

  • Proven commissioning experience at sign-off level with chillers, AHUs and CRAC/CRAH systems
  • Strong controls knowledge, including BACnet and Modbus
  • Previous data centre or critical cooling commissioning experience
  • Comfortable working independently on complex, live or near-live sites
  • Confident producing commissioning documentation and leading client handovers
  • Full UK driving licence
  • Willingness to travel, including occasional European projects
What we offer:
