What it signals when you’re hiring
Metro Associates’ own read, not Consulting-Specifying Engineer’s.
The only individual award on this page, and therefore the only one that names the person rather than the project. Each published class is a shortlist of MEP engineers who were already visible enough to be nominated — which is exactly the group that is hardest to reach through a job advert.
Roles whose work ends up in an entry like this
- Senior MEP Engineer

- Commissioning Engineer
- Fire Protection Engineer
