* Compliance & Safety: Ensure all installations meet current UK building regulations, health and safety standards, and project specifications.
*
Commissioning: Lead the testing and commissioning phases, ensuring all systems are fully operational and O&M manuals are completed for the client.

*
Competitive Package: A salary of £40k – £55k (negotiable based on experience) plus a comprehensive benefits package (Pension, Healthcare, and Car Allowance/Company Van).
*
Career Growth: Our client is known for promoting from within and will support your transition into Senior Management.
