LEAD MEP DESIGN MANAGER
HS2 | Building Services Design Coordination
We are looking for a Lead MEP Design Manager to oversee the coordination and technical assurance of building-services designs across nine major HS2 assets.
The programme includes reinforced-concrete portal buildings, tunnel shafts and pumping-station buildings. Each asset incorporates extensive mechanical, electrical, controls, communications, fire, public-health and vertical-transportation systems.
The design intent has been established, with the focus now on completing and coordinating construction-level design information.
Responsibilities:
* Lead MEP design coordination across multiple routewide assets
* Manage the completion and assurance of construction-design packages
* Review specialist contractor drawings and technical submissions
* Ensure contractor designs remain aligned with the approved design intent
* Coordinate electrical, mechanical, architectural, civil and structural interfaces
* Chair design reviews and multidisciplinary coordination meetings
* Manage technical queries, design changes and approval processes
* Monitor design deliverables against procurement and construction programmes
* Identify coordination, compliance and constructability risks
* Support material, plant and equipment approvals
* Work with site teams to resolve design-related construction issues
* Coordinate with consultants, subcontractors and client stakeholders
Candidate requirements:
* Extensive MEP or building-services design-management experience
* Strong understanding of construction design and technical assurance
* Experience managing specialist subcontractor design packages
* Ability to review multidisciplinary interfaces and technical submissions
* Knowledge of design change, compliance and approval processes
* Strong leadership and stakeholder-management skills
* Major-project or NEC experience would be advantageous
Candidates from Tier 1 building contractors, design-and-build organisations, consultancies and MEP specialists are encouraged to apply.
Rail experience is not essential, making this an excellent route into infrastructure, civil engineering and major structural projects
