Mechanical Contracts Manager

Tired of firefighting someone else’s coordination problems? If you’re a Mechanical Manager who knows how good projects should run—but too often ends up untangling late information, rushed commissioning and compromised design—this role will feel refreshingly different. Working here, building services are treated as critical to project success, not an afterthought squeezed between programme milestones. You’ll be trusted to lead the M&E narrative from early engagement through design, delivery and commissioning—on projects where quality, compliance and performance genuinely matter. And the projects? Take a look at our portfolio and you’ll see why people stay. Complex commercial developments, landmark education and leisure facilities, and technically demanding builds where integrated building services make or break the outcome. Why this role is better than the one you’re in * Early influence – work alongside preconstruction teams to shape solutions before they’re locked in * Authority, not just responsibility – lead design coordination, approvals, quality and commissioning * Real integration – M&E properly embedded into programme, planning and delivery strategies * Commercial exposure – support change control, valuations and decision-making with QS teams * Standards that matter – quality systems, compliance and handover done properly, not rushed You’ll be managing specialist contractors, leading technical and commissioning meetings, and ensuring buildings perform exactly as intended—for clients and end users alike. This role suits someone technically grounded (mechanical ideal), commercially aware, and confident leading conversations with consultants, contractors and clients. What you’ll get A competitive salary, generous pension, health care, life assurance—and the backing of a business that invests in its people for the long term.
