Technical Publications Manager – Building Services Engineering (Hybrid, Berkshire)

Location: Berkshire (Hybrid – 2 days per week in the office)
 Hours: Full-time or Part-time considered
 Contract: Permanent

Also suitable for Senior Building Services Engineers with technical writing or guidance experience.

Are you a technically credible Building Services / MEP / HVAC Engineer ready to influence industry best practice?

This is a unique opportunity for an experienced building services professional to move into — or further develop within — a knowledge-led, high-impact role shaping technical guidance for the sector.

You may already have experience as a Technical Author, Technical Consultant, Associate Engineer, Engineering Manager, or you could be a senior engineer looking to step away from project delivery and into a more strategic, industry-facing position.

The Role

You will take ownership of technical publication projects from concept through to release, ensuring quality, accuracy, relevance and commercial alignment.

Key responsibilities include:

Developing and managing a technical publications roadmap
Gathering industry intelligence and identifying emerging guidance needs
Project managing publications from inception to production
Authoring and contributing to technical guidance within your area of expertise
Reviewing, editing and quality-checking technical content
Working with industry stakeholders and steering groups
Supporting delivery of content via webinars, articles and training
Staying ahead of industry trends, standards and innovation

About You

You will have:

An engineering qualification in Building Services Engineering or a related discipline
Practical experience in the design, installation, commissioning or operation of building services systems
Strong technical writing, reporting or documentation skills (publications, reports, bids, guidance, web content)
Excellent attention to detail and editorial standards
The ability to manage multiple projects and stakeholders simultaneously
Credibility and a strong network within the building services industry
Experience in technical publications, lecturing, presenting or industry guidance writing is advantageous — but deep sector expertise is essential.

Why Apply?

Hybrid working (2 days per week in Berkshire office)
Open to full-time or part-time professionals
High-impact, industry-influencing role
Opportunity to step into thought leadership
Work at the centre of technical excellence in building services
If you're ready to use your building services expertise in a more strategic, knowledge-driven capacity — we’d love to hear from you.
