Project Engineer Mechanical Electrical Process

Our client is an established Scottish company who specialised in water solutions, from Filtration to Process equipment and Water Treatment Plants. They are now looking to develop their existing business interests within the Scotland and the UK by recruiting a professional Project Engineer. Taking control from cradle to grave projects within Scotland and UK. The role is M&E related and requires applicants to manage the processes with the customers, the design team and installation teams, managing time, labour, cost and providing handover to customers within defined times scales and financial constraints. Quality of service and work done by labour teams, managing the customer’s expectations and managing 3-4 projects at a time. The role will be based out of Glasgow but with occasional visits with customers throughout the UK.

The Role

The role will be heavily involved in the design and project management of the installation of filtration water treatment plants, complete wet leisure facilities (pools, spas and wave machines) and the associated M&E facilities to provide such product. This could be in the form of thermal cabins to water features right across the board to industrial water treatment process. As Project Engineer you will be the first point of contact with customers, you will liaise with client representatives to agree design and confirm the programme. Engineering knowledge specifically within the M&E sector will give you the ability to supervise the AutoCAD and 3D drawings, applicants may well be able to produce AutoCAD drawings themselves, but you will have a full design team support which will be used in the preparation of technical specifications. Once the program has been agreed the Project Engineer will be involved in procurement of materials, management of on-site installation and commissioning labour to fulfil the project and hand-over on time and within budget.

The Person

The ideal candidate must be able to demonstrate a strong Project Engineering track record within the M&E, process industry, water, water treatment or Facilities sectors. Ideally with a background within Mechanical, Electrical, M&E or Process Engineering supplying project on time and in budget. This role will allow the applicant to take ownership of the project, from client liaison, to design and modification, to the installation and handover of the project. Applicants therefore must be reliable, self-motivated and be able to work unsupervised

You will receive a £40-45K basic salary plus Car Allowance + package.

How Many Semiconductor Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Semiconductor Job?

If you’re pursuing a career in the semiconductor industry, it can feel like you’re expected to master an endless list of tools, software packages and lab equipment before you even submit a CV. One job advert wants experience with TCAD and process simulation, another mentions SPICE and yield tools, while yet another asks for test automation platforms, yield analysis software, hardware description languages, EDA suites and hundreds of others. With so many technical names thrown around, it’s easy to fall into “tool anxiety” — the feeling that you’re behind because you don’t know every piece of software, every lab instrument and every process control suite. Here’s the honest truth most semiconductor hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can use the right tools to solve real engineering problems and explain your reasoning clearly. Tools matter, absolutely. But they exist to help you deliver measurable results — not to be collected like badges. So how many semiconductor tools do you actually need to know to get a job? The answer is a lot fewer than you might think — and far more focused on core capabilities than a long checklist. This guide breaks down what employers really value, which tools are essential, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you are confident and credible.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Semiconductor Job Applications (UK Guide)

The semiconductor industry is fast-moving, highly technical and critically important to modern technology. Whether you’re targeting roles in device design, process engineering, yield improvement, test and validation, equipment engineering, reliability, failure analysis or fab operations, hiring managers are selective and deliberate in how they review applications. Most candidates still make the same mistake: they throw generic skill lists and duty statements at recruiters and hope it sticks. In reality, hiring managers make an early call — often within the first 10–20 seconds — based on a few key signals that tell them whether you’re a credible, relevant, impactful candidate. This article breaks down exactly what hiring managers look for first in semiconductor job applications — how they scan your CV, portfolio and cover letter, what makes them read deeper, and what causes strong candidates to be passed over in favour of others.

The Skills Gap in Semiconductor Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

The semiconductor industry lies at the heart of modern technology. From smartphones and data centres to autonomous vehicles, medical devices and defence systems, semiconductors power the digital age. The UK is investing heavily in semiconductor research, fabrication and talent development as part of its industrial strategy — yet employers continue to report a persistent problem: Many graduates are not job-ready for semiconductor roles. Despite strong academic programmes in engineering, physics and materials science, there remains a tangible skills gap between what universities teach and what semiconductor employers actually need. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities do well, where there are consistent shortfalls, why the divide persists, what employers genuinely want, and how jobseekers can bridge the gap to build successful careers in the semiconductor sector.
