Job Description
Building Services Manager
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a skilled and experienced Building Services Manager to take ownership of the full MEP delivery across two major construction projects currently in preconstruction phase, with a combined mechanical and electrical package value of approximately £10 million.
This position plays a critical leadership role in the successful planning, coordination, and future delivery of complex M&E works on two high-profile schemes: one located in Guildford, and the other near Heathrow. The successful candidate will split their time evenly between both sites on a weekly basis.
Key Responsibilities
*
Act as the principal lead for all Mechanical, Electrical, and Public Health (MEP) services across both projects, ensuring technical excellence and compliance from preconstruction through to delivery.
*
Work closely with the design team, consultants, and specialist subcontractors to coordinate and develop MEP strategy, value engineering proposals, and technical submissions during the preconstruction phase.
*
Provide expert input into design reviews, programme planning, procurement strategy, and interface management.
*
Oversee buildability reviews, system sequencing, spatial coordination, and ensure early identification and resolution of potential clashes or programme risks.
*
Ensure all MEP elements are fully integrated with the architectural and structural design and aligned with client performance requirements.
*
Maintain robust relationships with client teams, project stakeholders, airport authorities, and internal project leadership to ensure seamless project progression.
*
Support and manage site mobilisation for MEP works and provide oversight through future delivery phases where required.
Candidate Requirements
*
A proven track record as a Building Services Manager or MEP Project Manager within the construction industry, ideally with experience managing M&E packages in excess of £5 million.
*
Strong technical knowledge across both mechanical and electrical disciplines, with a clear understanding of preconstruction, commissioning, and handover processes.
*
Demonstrable experience working on high-value commercial schemes, with aviation sector experience highly advantageous.
*
Ability to manage complex, multi-site responsibilities while ensuring consistent communication, reporting, and coordination.
*
Excellent interpersonal and stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to influence senior stakeholders and collaborate with design and delivery teams.
*
Relevant qualifications in Building Services Engineering, Mechanical/Electrical Engineering, or Construction Management (e.g., HND/HNC, Degree, or equivalent). Professional accreditation (e.g., MCIBSE, MIET) is beneficial but not essential.
What’s on Offer
*
A strategic, high-impact role on two technically demanding projects.
*
Exposure to flagship developments with strong pipeline visibility.
*
Competitive salary and benefits, including car allowance, pension, private healthcare, and professional development support.
*
The opportunity to work for a forward-thinking main contractor with a strong presence in the commercial and aviation sectorsBefore You Apply
