Dublin, Ireland Kirby Group Engineering Full time

MEP Design Manager You probably don't get excited by "roles and responsibilities" lists. Neither do we. So let's cut to the chase. We're Kirby Group Engineering. 2,000+ people. €900m+ turnover. Projects across Ireland, the UK and mainland Europe. The stuff we design and build? Data centres, power transmission, pharma facilities, hyperscale projects. Big, complex, high-stakes engineering that makes the lights stay on and the internet keep working. Now to you. We need someone to take charge of mechanical and electrical design on some of the most technically demanding projects we deliver. Someone who doesn't just manage engineers, but knows how to get the best out of them - across multiple regions, with different cultures, time zones, and approaches. This isn't a "check drawings and sign them off" type role. It's leadership at project level. It's building teams, improving processes, spotting design gaps before they turn into expensive mistakes, and making sure the whole thing runs like clockwork. What you'll actually do: Lead design and engineering activity on major projects - power, cooling, telecoms, controls. Manage teams across Ireland, the UK, and Europe. Be the person construction teams call when they hit something too complex to solve locally. Improve how we do design - and make sure the "Kirby Way" keeps evolving. Recruit, coach and develop engineers so they're better next year than they are today. Front up to clients in tender interviews and kick-off meetings, representing design and engineering with confidence. What you won't do: Drown in bureaucracy. Sit in one office and never see the bigger picture. Be a small cog in a giant machine. What we're looking for: A strong electrical design engineering background Experience leading design teams on big projects. Someone comfortable making calls when it matters - even if the information isn't perfect. A leader who knows when to back their team, and when to challenge them. The deal: Salary and benefits that reflect the seniority of the role. Projects that stretch you - and give you the kind of experience most engineers only read about. If you want to lead design on projects that keep the modern world running, let's talk.
