Job Type: Full Time, Permanent
We are recruiting for an experienced M&E Small Works Project Manager to join a leading global facilities management organisation, based at one of London’s most recognisable and technically complex commercial buildings.
This is a site-based project role responsible for delivering a portfolio of mechanical and electrical small works projects within a live, high-profile environment.
We are specifically looking for someone who started their career within Mechanical, Electrical or Building Services Engineering and has subsequently progressed into Project Management.
This is not a general construction or purely fit-out Project Manager position.
The Role
* Manage multiple M&E small works projects from initial concept through to completion and handover.
* Deliver projects typically ranging from minor upgrades through to works valued around £250,000.
* Manage mechanical and electrical refurbishments, plant replacements, upgrades and improvement projects.
* Develop project scopes, programmes, budgets and delivery plans.
* Coordinate feasibility, design, procurement, construction, commissioning and handover.
* Procure and manage specialist M&E contractors and subcontractors.
* Monitor programme, cost, quality and project risk.
* Manage variations, change control and project expenditure.
* Ensure works are delivered safely within a live operational building.
* Coordinate shutdowns, isolations and works affecting critical building services.
* Review technical drawings, specifications and contractor proposals.
* Ensure compliance with CDM, health & safety and relevant building regulations.
* Carry out regular site inspections and monitor contractor performance.
* Maintain accurate project documentation, O&M information and as-built records.
* Act as the primary point of contact for clients and internal stakeholders.
* Provide clear project updates, financial reporting and progress forecasts.
About You
* Strong Mechanical, Electrical or Building Services engineering background.
* Previous hands-on experience as an Engineer, Supervisor, Technical Manager or similar before moving into Project Management.
* Proven experience delivering M&E projects within occupied commercial buildings.
* Experience managing multiple small works projects simultaneously.
* Strong understanding of mechanical and electrical building services.
* Experience managing contractors, budgets, programmes and project risk.
* Comfortable working around live plant and critical engineering infrastructure.
* Experience within flagship commercial buildings, high-rise towers, banking, corporate headquarters or similarly complex estates would be highly advantageous.
* Good knowledge of CDM Regulations and construction health & safety.
* Relevant M&E, Engineering, Building Services or Project Management qualification would be advantageous.
Why Apply?
This is an excellent opportunity for an M&E professional who has successfully transitioned into Project Management and wants to work within one of London’s most prestigious commercial environments.
You’ll be responsible for a varied programme of technically focused projects within a complex high-rise building, working closely with the resident engineering team, specialist contractors and senior client stakeholders
