We don’t build cars; we enable cars to be built! Combining technical know-how with hands-on expertise, our Environmental and Building Services engineers define the processes and facilities needed to achieve production objectives.
From procuring and installing innovative solutions to maintain environmental compliance, maximise the availability of site services to main line Production shops, identify and implement energy saving initiatives, to root cause analysis and resolving site infrastructure and building service issues, we support all areas of the manufacturing operation, ensuring seamless production of over 500,000 cars every year.
Environmental and Building Services Engineering is a key function offering a full spectrum of roles covering Mechanical, Electrical (LV and HV), Environmental, Gas and HVAC Engineering.
We combine practical engineering with project coordination using cross-functional teamwork.
