Job Title: Installation Engineer
Location: Based in Irvine, covering commercial and industrial ventilation sites primarily
across Glasgow and the Central Belt
Salary: Competitive Salary (Based on Experience)
Position: Full-Time, Permanent
About Sigma EPD
Sigma EPD is a fast-growing, design-led ventilation engineering firm based in Irvine. We
design, manufacture, and install high-end, proprietary ventilation systems, including Heat
Recovery Ventilation (HRV) systems, bespoke fan walls, and commercial kitchen extracts.
As we scale our commercial operations over the next year, we are looking for Engineers who
would help us develop the installation side of the business by running projects and driving
efficiency on site.
The Role
We are not looking for a passive installer who just waits for instruction. We need an
Installation Engineer to take full responsibility of commercial projects. You will work with us
to develop concepts for installation, from CAD drawings to final handover. You will lead site
installations, ensure quality and maintain site safety.
Crucially, because we are expanding, you will also be a mentor. You will lead a Trainee
Engineer assigned to you, helping them progress through their practical on-site SVQ
qualifications. Your success in this role is judged not just by how fast you fit ductwork, but by
how effectively you run the job site and develop our trainee.
Key Responsibilities
· Lead the installation of commercial ventilation systems, bespoke fan walls, and
HRV tech across the Central Belt. The job would entail some working away
· Interpret CAD drawings accurately and manage materials on site to ensure
minimal wastage.
· Take full responsibility for site safety, risk assessments, and final quality control
and handovers.
· Act as the primary on-site contact for clients and main contractors, representing
Sigma EPD professionally.
· Mentor and direct a Trainee Assistant, actively helping them log practical
evidence for their on-site SVQ apprenticeship track.
What We Are Looking For
· Proven Experience: Solid background in commercial and industrial ventilation,
ductwork installation and air handling systems. Experience with commercial
kitchen extracts and HRV systems is an advantage.
· Highly Motivated Team Member: This is arguably one of the most important
requirements. We are looking for a leader who actively takes initiative and
contributes to our growing business.
· Respect and Humility: As a SigmaEPD employee, it is a requirement that you
respect and support other employees.
· Leadership & Initiative: You naturally take charge of a site, anticipate problems
before they happen, and solve them without needing hand-holding.
· The Mentor Mindset: You are willing to share your trade knowledge to help train
a junior assistant.
· Compliance: Full UK Driving License. A valid Blue/Gold SKILL card or CSCS
card or willingness to obtain one is also a key requirement.
· Standards: High attention to detail; you take pride in clean, precise
installations.
· The desire to build a long-term career
· Professionalism: As an installation engineer you must interact with clients. By
doing this you are carrying the reputation of our company and its ethos. The
successful candidate will maintain a high level of professionalism when
interacting with and serving these clients.
What We Offer
· Competitive salary.
· Company van and specialist tools provided.
· A stable, secure role within a growing business working with cutting-edge
green technology.
· Real career progression.
· Early finish on Fridays.
