Most are termed mechanical design engineers rather than HVAC as they will do CWS, DHW and a few other bits.
Not sure where you’d go with it, I’d try the big boys like Arup, Buro Happold and Parsons Brinkerhoff. You might be able to get onto a grad programme part way through or taken on as a junior engineer as you already have industry experience.
I have a LOT of documents including ebooks, CIBSE guides, BSRIA docs (VERY helpful) and regs which I would suggest you would find very helpful. Not sure how I’d get them to you (perhaps a dropbox thing if you can set one up?).
Brush up on heat load calks, find out which software is popular (hevacomp, IES), perhaps do a BIM course?, parts L & F, BREEAM.
Mail in profile, it may take me a few days to put the stuff in (I have a LOT of stuff).
