About the role

Are you a recent engineering graduate looking to kick-start your career in a role that blends technical problem-solving with real commercial impact? Join us as a Graduate Tendering Engineer and develop your expertise in a global engineering business known for innovation, quality, and world-class rotating equipment.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys understanding how things work, solving customer problems, and working collaboratively across engineering, supply chain, and sales. You’ll receive full training and support as you learn how to interpret customer enquiries, identify the right technical solutions, and prepare quotations for spare parts and upgrades for equipment such as steam turbines, reciprocating compressors, and gearboxes.

If you’re eager to learn, curious about engineering in a real-world environment, and excited to build a career with a global leader, this role is a great place to start.

Who we are

Howden has a range of compressors, blowers, fans, steam turbines, and rotary heat exchangers, and has been at the forefront of developing engineered solutions for the needs of industrial processes since 1854. In 2023, Howden joined forces with Chart Industries, a global leader in engineered equipment for clean energy and industrial gas markets.

Together, we operate over 64 manufacturing sites and 50+ service centres worldwide, with 11,700+ employees driving innovation in hydrogen, carbon capture, energy recovery, nuclear, water treatment, mining, and LNG. As part of the Nexus of Clean™, we are advancing a sustainable future - helping customers improve efficiency and reduce emissions across clean power, water, food, and industrial sectors.

Join us and be part of a purpose-driven team shaping the future and tackling some of the planet’s most urgent challenges, all while growing your career in a dynamic global environment.

What you'll learn and do

You will be trained to:

Review customer enquiries and understand their technical requirements.
Identify the correct spare parts or upgrade solutions with support from experienced engineers.
Work with suppliers and internal teams to gather accurate technical and cost information.
Learn how to prepare clear, accurate quotations for customers.
Support the sales team by providing technical input and helping develop customer proposals.
Gain experience in costing, pricing, and understanding commercial considerations.
Work with design, manufacturing, and contract engineering teams to ensure customer requirements can be met.
Help prepare tender documentation and support the handover of successful orders into production.
Learn how orders progress through the business from enquiry to delivery.
Communicate with customers in a professional and confident manner (with support as you develop).
Help resolve queries and provide updates on quotations and orders.
Learn how to negotiate on pricing and delivery within delegated authority.
Identify opportunities to offer additional products or services that add value for customers.
Contribute to team KPIs such as enquiry response time, quote accuracy, and conversion rates.
Continuously develop your knowledge of our products, technologies, and industry.

What you'll gain

This role offers a strong foundation for a long-term career in engineering, commercial operations, or technical sales. You will gain:

A deep understanding of rotating equipment and engineered products.
Hands-on experience working with steam turbines, compressors, and gearboxes.
Exposure to commercial decision-making and customer interaction.
Training in tendering, costing, and technical sales processes.
Opportunities to collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, supply chain, and sales teams.
A pathway to future roles such as Applications Engineer, Contract Engineer or Project Manager.

What we're looking for

An ideal candidate would likely have the following profile:

A degree or HNC/HND in Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, or similar engineering discipline.
A genuine interest in engineering and how products are designed, manufactured, and supported.
Strong attention to detail and willingness to learn.
Good communication skills and confidence working with others.
Ability to manage your time and prioritise tasks.
A customer-focused mindset and a proactive approach.
Competence with Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook).

Desirable (but not required)

Any experience from internships, placements, or university projects involving mechanical or electrical systems.
Exposure to costing, estimating, or technical documentation.
Interest in rotating equipment, power generation, or industrial machinery.

We don’t expect you to have experience with steam turbines or compressors - we will teach you.

Howden Pension Plan with a maximum employer contribution of 7%
Company electric vehicle scheme through salary sacrifice
Enhanced Maternity, Paternity, shared parental and adoption leave pay
Free onsite parking
