Getting into full time project planning career

Hi all.

I have been working in the West Yorkshire area as a mechanical building services design engineer for the last 6 years. Previously I was a M&E CAD technitain for 6 years. I have 1.5 years experience in asset management. I am IEng ACIBSE registered with CIBSE and EC(UK). Last year I gained entry on to the CIBSE low carbon consultant (Building operation) and low carbon energy assessor (DECs) registers.

My education experience consists of a HND in computer aided engineering, HNC in Building services engineering and a 2:1 BSc(Hons) in project management. My educational knowledge has been strong in project planning rather than the engineering and I have a great understanding and interest in this area but not much practical experience.

I am looking for full time employment as a project planner/planning engineer in the Yorkshire area and any career advice on how to get into this market would be gratefully received.

Best Regards.

Nick.
