Job Description:

BMS SERVICE & COMMISSIONING ENGINEER

Yorkshire | Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield, Sheffield & surrounding areas

Up to £58,000 + Company Car or £6,825 Car Allowance + Bonus + Benefits  
If you’re an experienced BMS engineer based in Yorkshire, a move needs to offer more than a different company name and another list of PPM visits. This role combines BMS service and fault-finding with the engineering and commissioning of smaller controls works across Yorkshire. You’ll maintain and diagnose existing BMS systems, carry out condition surveys and recommend further work, but you can also get involved in software, controls procurement, commissioning and taking smaller works through to customer handover. It’s a Yorkshire-based field role suited to engineers living around Leeds, Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield, Sheffield or within practical reach of the wider territory. You’ll receive up to £58,000 plus a company car or £6,825 car allowance, performance-related bonus and wider benefits.  

WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY BE DOING AND WHY IT MATTERS
Your workload will combine planned maintenance, reactive BMS fault-finding and small-works commissioning across customer sites in Yorkshire. On the service side, you’ll investigate how existing control systems are performing, maintain software and strategy backups and carry out condition surveys where required. You’ll produce useful site reports explaining what you found, what you’ve done and what you recommend happens next. Where further BMS work is required, your involvement can extend beyond identifying the problem. On smaller works, you can create software, produce wiring and commissioning schedules, procure controls equipment and prepare technical documentation including Descriptions of Operation and O&M information. You’ll commission the controls, make sure the installation meets the design requirements and take smaller projects through demonstration and handover.  

WHY THIS ROLE COULD BE BETTER
If you already have a reasonable BMS service job in Yorkshire, another maintenance position alone probably isn’t a compelling reason to move. The difference here is the technical breadth around the service work.
You can combine:
• PPM, reactive diagnostics and condition surveys
• Software, controls engineering and small-works commissioning
• Customer relationships, subcontractor coordination and final handover There’s also the opportunity to broaden your platform knowledge. The role can involve Trend, Tridium, Schneider, Siemens and ALC environments, alongside Niagara-based systems. You’ll need solid experience with at least one relevant platform, and additional systems training is provided where necessary. That means you can build on the BMS knowledge you already have rather than needing to arrive experienced across every system.  

ESSENTIALS
You’ll need proven hands-on BMS service, commissioning or controls engineering experience. You should have experience with at least one of the following:
• Trend, Tridium or Schneider
• Siemens or ALC
• Plus knowledge of Niagara-based systems You’ll need a sound understanding of HVAC systems, electrical competence and the ability to interpret and modify existing BMS control strategies. This is also a customer-facing role. You’ll need to investigate issues independently, explain technical findings clearly and turn them into practical reports and recommendations. You may also supervise junior engineers and coordinate subcontractors where required.  

THE CHALLENGES
Service engineering isn’t completely predictable. Alongside planned maintenance and small works, you’ll attend reactive call-outs and breakdowns in accordance with customer SLAs. You’ll also need to be comfortable covering customer sites across Yorkshire. Whether you’re working around West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire or elsewhere within the territory, this is a field-based position rather than a single-site role. The technical workload varies too. You may move from fault-finding an existing BMS to surveying proposed improvements or commissioning a smaller controls project through to handover.  

YOUR DEVELOPMENT
This role gives you a practical way to broaden your BMS capability while remaining hands-on. Alongside maintaining and fault-finding existing systems, you can develop further experience in condition surveys, software creation, controls procurement, commissioning, project documentation and customer handover. You’ll work in environments containing systems such as Trend, Tridium, Schneider, Siemens and ALC, with additional systems training provided where necessary. There can also be opportunities to build experience through supervising junior engineers and coordinating subcontractors.  

PACKAGE ON OFFER Up to £58,000 basic salary Company car or £6,825 annual car allowance Company performance-related bonus scheme 7.5% pension, increasing to 8.75% after five years’ service and 10% after ten years 25 days’ annual leave, increasing to 26 days after two years and 27 days after eight years Plus:
• Private healthcare
• Opportunity to buy or sell additional holiday
• Competitive sick pay
• Cycle to Work scheme up to £2,000
• EV salary sacrifice scheme
• Interest-free EV charger loan up to £1,000
• Interest-free Smart Tech scheme up to £2,000
• Employee retail, leisure and travel discounts  

APPLY TODAY
If you’re already working in BMS across Yorkshire and want your next role to give you more technical scope than another maintenance portfolio, this one is worth exploring. You’ll retain the fault-finding and customer interaction of service engineering while adding more exposure to surveys, software and the engineering, commissioning and handover of smaller BMS works. If that combination sounds like a worthwhile next move, get in touch for a confidential conversation about the Yorkshire territory, technical remit and package.
