Are you looking to start and develop a career as a Mechanical Engineer with a multi awarding winning property and construction consultancy, where you will be challenged daily working on exceptionally varied and diverse projects in a team atmosphere?
We have an exciting opportunity for a Graduate Mechanical Engineer to join our talented Building Services team in Plymouth as part of our Evolve Graduate Programme commencing in October 2026.
At Ridge, our people are the foundation of our success, and our greatest asset. Our people are what separate us, they drive our vision and embody our values. We offer not just a job, but a journey. We believe in commitment, and the value of a stable, flexible, long-term career path. We challenge our people to be the best they can be and help them grow with the right development.
Our graduate roles are real, genuine roles in our teams - you will play an important part in providing exceptional service to our clients and be exposed to a lot more client activity than you may be at the bigger consultancies. We want you to take pride in your work and feel valued for your contribution, so you can expect to be getting involved as soon as you are ready to do so.
Our projects include large residential, industrial, and commercial schemes with contract values over £30 million to smaller schemes and working for interesting clients including motor manufacturers, Schools/Universities, healthcare providers, contractors, developers etc.
