Hemiko

Hemiko is a fast-growing, UK based, innovative business which is looking to invest in and deliver over £1bn of heat network projects in the coming years. We fund, design build, operate and maintain low carbon district energy networks and building energy systems for communities, towns and cities. We work with local authorities, developers, house builders and property owners.

We are looking to lead on city scale decarbonisation. We recognise that the decarbonisation of heating and the built environment is one of the last known and “solution clear” areas – this is where we are focussed and where we will be deploying our investment and our resources.

We are an innovative, design and proactive intelligence led company, looking to attract people who think around a problem and past an issue. We want to be at the front end of commercial and technical innovation and are looking for team members to come on that journey.

Some Of Our Current Projects Include

The design, installation, operation and funding of district heating system to serve 3500 homes in Clapham as part of a major regeneration project.
The design and installation of a heat network in a rural community in Cambridgeshire to replace oil boilers in 300 homes with centralised low carbon heat generation.
The design and installation of a ground source heat pump system to provide heating and cooling to a new development of 300 homes a gym and office building in South London.
The design, installation and operation of a new city centre wide low carbon district heating system for the City of Cardiff
Developing detailed long-term decarbonisation plans for existing large scale district heating networks to allow them to transition from gas fired CHP led generation to low carbon generation.

Hemiko is absolutely committed to an honest and collaborative approach to all our work, to being innovative in everything we do, always looking for better ways to do things and on avoiding the business curses of unnecessary complexity and silos.

We are a young, friendly business in the very rapidly growing low carbon energy sector, which provides significant opportunities for career flexibility and development. We focus on delivering bespoke solutions with positive outcomes for the communities we serve.

Role

Hemiko is seeking a highly flexible, self-starting, post-graduate engineer with demonstrable experience in the design of Mechanical Building Services. The nominal location of the post will be Sheffield, but we will consider other office locations in London and Carlisle. The role is to support the design and growth of heat network infrastructure in the UK so you would also be expected to visit prospective client sites and active construction sites throughout the UK from time to time, as necessary.

The nature of the business and our rapid growth means that the candidate has significant opportunity to develop their career in a friendly environment. We are looking to develop teams of engineers that will be able to grow into designing a variety of energy related systems. It is anticipated, therefore, that the candidate would be seeking to broaden their skills horizon.

This position will differ from conventional design responsibilities in that the engineer will be given the opportunity to ‘own’ a design project from inception through to operation. Following the handover to our Operations Team, the engineer will continue to monitor and evaluate feedback from the Operations Team to help refine and improve the design and all future designs.

Specific Tasks

The production of detailed drawings, reports and specifications.

Evaluating existing buildings energy system designs and generating design changes to make them operate efficiently at lower temperatures.

Production of viability and feasibility reports of energy systems

Regular on site evaluation to ensure design compliance during construction phase

Candidate

We are looking for an enthusiastic energy / building services engineer with excellent design, technical, and software skills who enjoys working collaboratively in dynamic multi-professional teams, assisting in all aspects of the delivery of projects from inception to completion to achieve outstanding results.

You will be able to show you have a keen interest and had 3-5 years of experience in delivering detailed designs in this field of engineering for domestic, commercial and industrial buildings. You will have a keen eye for detail and be technically proficient.

We will want you to join our journey toward a more environmentally, technically responsible and effective way of designing energy systems; moving away from conventional processes into a more innovative and free-thinking design environment.
