Strong HVAC and mechanical services knowledge
Experience managing subcontractors and site teams
Good understanding of construction programmes and sequencing
Ability to read and interpret mechanical drawings
Strong communication and coordination skills
Good health & safety and quality awareness
Experience working on projects valued at £5m+ would be advantageous

Career Progression

One of the key attractions of this position is the opportunity to progress into a Project Manager role.

The business is looking for someone who wants to develop beyond site management and take on greater responsibility across programme, commercial management, client relationships and overall project delivery.

You'll have the opportunity to work alongside experienced Project Managers and senior management while developing the skills required to make that transition.
