If your current role feels too reactive, too slow to make decisions, or too boxed in, this could give you more range. You’ll take ownership of BMS projects from order through to completion, work directly with senior decision-makers, and help shape how projects are delivered in a business that wants to improve, not just repeat what everyone else in the sector is already doing.
You’ll join a small, growing team where your input matters. The projects are varied, the pace is real, and your work will be visible.
Why this could beat your current role
You’ll manage a wide spread of BMS projects, not just babysit one job for months on end. Most work sits in the fast-track space, with projects typically ranging from £2k to £200k, so you’ll need to think clearly, prioritise well, and keep things moving. You’ll also report into the Directors, which means fewer layers, quicker decisions, and more chance to influence how delivery improves over time.
What you’ll be doing and why it’s interesting
* Run multiple BMS projects from conception to completion, keeping programmes tight, engineers and subcontractors coordinated, and clients updated without letting quality slip.
* Protect margin as well as delivery, managing costs, procurement, variations, and scope changes so jobs stay commercially under control, not just technically complete.
* Build consistency into delivery, with clear job packs, handover documentation, RAMS, permits, and repeatable ways of working that make future projects smoother.
* Keep clients confident, through strong communication, responsiveness, and visible control across each stage of delivery.
* Support larger projects when required, while still staying sharp on the fast-turnaround work that keeps the business moving.
The challenge
This is not a slow, one-project-at-a-time environment. You’ll be handling multiple concurrent jobs, travelling to sites across the UK when needed, and occasionally coordinating out-of-hours activity where access or critical environments demand it. For the right person, that is exactly where your organisation and calm decision-making stand out.
What you’ll bring
* Around 10 years’ experience in BMS project management
* Strong understanding of HVAC and BMS project delivery from start to finish
* Confidence managing programmes, subcontractors, commercial control, and client communication
* Ability to read and work from technical drawings and specifications
What do you need
* Proven BMS project management experience
* Full UK driving licence
* Right to Work in the UK
* Health & Safety credentials such as CSCS/ECS, IOSH Managing Safely, SMSTS/SSSTS, First Aid, Asbestos Awareness are strongly valued
Practicalities
* Covering |London and the South East
* Office-based role with project site visits as required
* UK-wide travel and occasional overnight stays will be required
* Not resident on a single site
* £60,000 to £70,000, depending on experience
* Vehicle allowance
* 25 days holiday + public holidays
* Company pension scheme
