BMS Service & Project Engineer

Overview

BMS Service & Project Engineer – Poole / Bournemouth – £45,000+

Add PLC automation to your BMS career without leaving your existing skills behind. You may already be trusted to keep BMS systems running, solve faults and deal with clients. This role gives you a predominantly service‑based position with enough upgrade and project work to keep things interesting. You will work across Tridium Niagara, Siemens, Honeywell and Beckhoff systems, with a genuine route into PLC automation as your experience develops.

This is not a desk‑based engineering position. You will travel between sites and take part in an on‑call rota.

In return, you will have ownership of your work, enough variety to keep developing and the support to solve problems properly rather than simply applying temporary fixes.

• Take ownership of BMS service and maintenance visits, diagnosing faults across software, controllers, panels and field hardware.
• Support upgrades and project works, including modifications, commissioning and system improvements.
• Manage your own diary across client sites, with remote support and experienced engineers available when you need them.
• Build your exposure to PLC automation, smoke control and more complex regulated environments.

• Hands‑on BMS, controls, industrial or process service experience, including structured fault‑finding.
• The confidence to work autonomously across client sites and support upgrade or project activity.
• A full UK driving licence, the Right To Work in the UK and a workable location for Poole or Bournemouth.
• A willingness to join an on‑call rota.
• Experience with Tridium Niagara N4, Siemens, Honeywell, Beckhoff or Trend would be useful.
• PLC programming, smoke control, 18th Edition, CSCS or IPAF would also be welcomed, but not every box needs to be ticked.

• £45,000+ depending on experience
• Annual bonus
• Company vehicle or monthly car allowance
• Travel expenses covered
• 5% company pension contribution
• BUPA private medical insurance
• Life assurance at four times salary
• 25 days’ holiday plus public holidays
• Funded technical training and an individual development plan
