If you're an experienced M&E Project Manager, Mechanical Project Manager, Building Services Project Manager or Mechanical Contracts Manager who's beginning to think beyond simply delivering the next project....this could be one of the more interesting opportunities you'll come across this year.
We're recruiting for an established engineering-led M&E contractor (£14m+ turnover) specialising in Mechanical, Electrical, HVAC and Building Services projects across commercial property portfolios.
Unlike many M&E contractors, they don't spend their lives chasing main contractor packages.
They work directly with end-user clients, corporate property owners and major Facilities Management (FM) providers, delivering repeat Mechanical, Electrical and HVAC projects across multi-site portfolios.
Think more CBRE-style delivery than traditional subcontracting but with much less red-tape!
The opportunity Initially you'll take responsibility for an existing portfolio of live Mechanical & Electrical projects, inherited clients and secured work.
But that's only the beginning.
The longer-term plan is for you to build, grow and ultimately lead your own business unit.
You'll have the freedom to develop client relationships, generate new opportunities, recruit Project Managers beneath you and build a profitable division with the backing of an established business.
It's a genuine route towards becoming Head of Projects or Business Unit Director.
Not because someone retires. Because that's the plan.
Typical projects include
Mechanical & Electrical (M&E)
HVAC installations and upgrades
Mechanical plant replacement
Electrical infrastructure
Building Services refurbishment
Energy improvement works
Commercial office fit-outs
Healthcare
Education
Hotels
Industrial and logistics facilities
Multi-site property portfoliosWe'd like to speak with
Senior M&E Project Managers
Mechanical Project Managers
Electrical Project Managers
Building Services Project Managers
Mechanical Contracts Managers
Senior Contracts Managers
Operations Managers
Experienced Mechanical or Electrical Engineers looking for the next stepYou'll probably have experience working with:
End-user clients
FM providers
Managing agents
Corporate property portfolios
Commercial property
Mechanical & Electrical projects
HVAC projectsYou'll also understand that successful projects are built just as much on client relationships as they are on programmes.
The type of person You probably started life as an engineer before moving into project management.
You're commercially aware.
You enjoy building relationships.
You've built a decent network over the years.
You know how to win trust.
And you've reached the point where you'd quite like more influence over the direction of a business instead of simply delivering the next project someone else won.
Worth adding..
This isn't a pure delivery role.
It isn't a business development role.
It isn't an Operations Manager role.
It's a rare opportunity to combine all three.
You'll still be involved in delivering projects, but you'll also help shape the future of the business, develop new clients, grow turnover and build your own team.
You'll have the backing of an established company, existing clients, marketing support, operational infrastructure and experienced leadership.
In other words...
Someone else has already taken the biggest risks.
You get to build the exciting bit.
Salary is flexible, plus a genuinely meaningful bonus linked to the success of the business unit you're helping to build.
If you're an ambitious M&E Project Manager, Mechanical Project Manager, Building Services Project Manager or Mechanical Contracts Manager looking for something with genuine long-term potential, I'd be happy to have a confidential chat.
