Contract Length: 6 months initially, likely extension to 9+ months
IR35 Status: Outside IR35

Overview

We are seeking an experienced Engineering Consultant to join a growing GMP pharmaceutical site in Aldershot. The site is undergoing significant expansion, including new and upgraded facilities.

This is a highly visible, on-site position requiring someone who can hit the ground running, operate autonomously, and drive engineering activity forward without relying on heavy oversight.

Key Responsibilities:

* Lead and execute CAPEX and engineering projects, including expansions, new site builds, facility conversions, and equipment installations.

* Drive engineering activity from concept through to commissioning and handover.

* Manage contractors, suppliers, and external engineering partners.

* Ensure project delivery aligns with GMP requirements and site quality standards.

* Work closely with Operations, Quality, and Site Engineering to maintain project momentum.

* Provide hands-on support and visibility on the shop floor — this is not a desk-only or purely planning role.

* Support documentation, URS, risk assessments, work packs, and technical reporting.

* Troubleshoot engineering challenges and coordinate practical solutions in real time.

Experience & Background

Essential:

* Strong background in GMP pharmaceutical engineering.

* Experience delivering CAPEX, Engineering Projects, or Project Engineering within regulated manufacturing.

* Able to operate independently and bring immediate impact.

* Comfortable being hands-on when required — supporting practical engineering tasks, site walkthroughs, or troubleshooting.

* On-site presence is essential; this is not a remote or hybrid consultancy contract.

* Must be available within 4 weeks (max.) — no long notice periods.

Desirable (Higher Rate Justification):

* Experience working in sterile/aseptic pharmaceutical facilities.

* Knowledge of cleanroom design, utilities (HVAC, purified water, compressed air), or lab expansions.

Beneficial (not essential):

* Previous experience in equipment installation, commissioning, or mechanical/electrical troubleshooting.

* Any practical engineering background complementing project delivery.
