MEP consultancies need practice managers who can match operational rigour with the pace of engineering delivery.

Who We Are
Architecture Social is a specialist recruitment consultancy working with MEP engineering consultancies, building services firms, and multidisciplinary design practices across the UK.

Our deep relationships in the sector mean we hear about these roles before they are advertised.

What Our Clients Typically Ask For

• Resource planning expertise — allocating engineers to projects based on skills, experience, and availability
• End-to-end recruitment management from job description writing through to offer management
• Quality and compliance leadership — ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and professional indemnity insurance administration
• Ensuring staff maintain professional registrations with CIBSE, IMechE, or IET
• Substantial operational management experience within engineering or construction consultancy environments
• Proven ability to work effectively with technical professionals and discipline leads

If your operational expertise keeps engineering consultancies compliant, profitable, and running smoothly, we want to hear from you.
