The Client This is an excellent opportunity to join a well-established building services contractor delivering high-quality mechanical, electrical and public health engineering projects across a range of commercial, industrial and public sector environments.The business provides a full design, installation and project management service, covering design, procurement, installation, testing, commissioning and maintenance, with a strong focus on technically led building services and renewable energy solutions.Projects can range from around £1.5m upwards, with larger schemes reaching circa £5m to £6m, covering sectors such as healthcare, commercial, education, industrial and wider public sector buildings.This is a company that genuinely cares about the quality of work it delivers. They are not looking for someone who simply wants to push jobs through quickly and move on. They want someone who takes pride in proper project delivery, strong client relationships, commercial control and high technical standards.Why This Role Exists This role exists because of growth, new project wins and the need to strengthen the senior mechanical delivery team.The business has a strong pipeline of work and is now looking for an experienced Mechanical Contracts Manager who can take ownership of mechanical projects from estimate handover through to completion and final account.This is not a role for someone who wants to sit behind a desk and simply pass messages between site, client and office. It needs someone who understands mechanical services properly, can lead from the front, manage labour and subcontractors, deal with clients, control costs and make sure projects are delivered safely, profitably and to the right standard.For someone already working as a Mechanical Project Manager, Senior Mechanical Project Manager or Mechanical Contracts Manager, this could be a very sensible next move.It is particularly well suited to someone who is currently employed and performing well, but perhaps starting to question whether their current role still offers the autonomy, progression or long-term opportunity they want.Overview You will be responsible for managing mechanical services installation projects from handover of estimate through to completion and agreement of final accounts.The role will involve managing projects across commercial, industrial and public sector buildings, with a focus on quality, programme, cost control, health and safety, client management and technical delivery.Typical responsibilities will include:Taking mechanical projects from estimating handover through to completionManaging project delivery, programme, quality and commercial performanceProcuring plant, materials and subcontractor packagesManaging labour requirements and controlling associated costsCarrying out regular site visits to monitor progress and standardsPreparing and managing applications for paymentCosting and managing variationsForecasting spend and keeping projects within budgetPreparing work in progress reports for senior managementManaging health and safety requirements, including RAMSLiaising with clients, consultants, architects, builders, surveyors and internal teamsAttending project, client and technical meetingsSupporting tender submissions where requiredManaging certification, commissioning information and O&M manualsBuilding and maintaining strong client and supply chain relationshipsThis is a proper mechanical delivery role.

That is completely fine.This is the kind of opportunity that could be worth a confidential conversation if you feel your current role has become too restrictive, too corporate, too reactive or simply no longer offers the progression you want.The business is looking for someone who can take ownership, add value and help deliver mechanical projects properly.For the right person, this could offer a strong long-term move with more visibility, more responsibility and more influence.How To Apply If this sounds like the sort of opportunity you would be open to discussing, please apply or get in touch for a confidential conversation.You do not need to have an up-to-date CV to make an initial enquiry.If the role is potentially of interest, we can have an informal conversation first and take it from there.TPBN1_UKTJ
