Job Description

Technical Services Manager - Electrical Bias

Freelance | London | £450-£500 per day

We are currently working with a leading UK main contractor on an exciting opportunity for a Freelance Technical Services Manager to join their project team in London.

This is a hands-on, site-based role suited to someone who enjoys being close to the action, managing subcontractors, resolving technical issues and keeping MEP works moving.

The ideal candidate will be electrically biased, with strong experience managing MEP subcontractors and a good understanding of electrical isolations, coordination and safe systems of work.

The Role

This is very much a boots-on-the-ground position. You'll be the day-to-day link between the site team, MEP subcontractors, consultants and wider project team, making sure issues are identified, chased and resolved.

We're looking for someone who is proactive, organised and willing to get stuck in - not someone who is looking to manage everything from behind a desk.

Your responsibilities will include:

Managing and coordinating MEP subcontractors, particularly electrical packages
Acting as the day-to-day middleman between the site team, subcontractors, consultants and project management
Being regularly out on site, monitoring progress, quality and installation
Chasing subcontractors and driving actions through to completion
Understanding and coordinating electrical isolations and ensuring works are properly planned and managed
Identifying technical and coordination issues and driving practical solutions
Reviewing drawings, specifications and technical information
Monitoring subcontractor progress against the programme and challenging delays
Coordinating testing, commissioning and handover
Attending technical and coordination meetings
Working closely with Site Managers, Project Managers and the wider construction team
Supporting the safe, timely and high-quality delivery of MEP services

About You

We're looking for a hands-on Technical Services Manager / MEP Manager who can hit the ground running.

Ideally, you will have:

Previous experience as a Technical Services Manager, MEP Manager, Building Services Manager or similar
A strong electrical bias
Proven experience managing MEP subcontractors
A good understanding of electrical systems and isolations
Strong site-based construction experience
The confidence to challenge subcontractors and hold them accountable
Excellent communication and coordination skills
A proactive approach - someone who chases things rather than waits for them
The ability to work independently and integrate quickly into an existing project team
A genuine "get stuck in" attitude

Package

Role: Freelance Technical Services Manager
 Location: London
 Rate: £450-£500 per day
 Duration: 4 month project
 Start: Immediate / short notice preferred

If you're an experienced electrically biased Technical Services Manager who enjoys being boots on the ground, managing subcontractors and getting things done, we'd be keen to hear from you.
