Description:

M&E Small Works Project Manager
Location: London Bridge
Salary: £80,000 + £5,000 car allowance
Job Type: Full Time, Permanent

We are recruiting for an experienced M&E Small Works Project Manager to join a leading global facilities management organisation, based at one of London’s most recognisable and technically complex commercial buildings.

This is a site-based project role responsible for delivering a portfolio of mechanical and electrical small works projects within a live, high-profile environment.

We are specifically looking for someone who started their career within Mechanical, Electrical or Building Services Engineering and has subsequently progressed into Project Management.

This is not a general construction or purely fit-out Project Manager position.

The Role

* Manage multiple M&E small works projects from initial concept through to completion and handover.

* Deliver projects typically ranging from minor upgrades through to works valued around £250,000.

* Manage mechanical and electrical refurbishments, plant replacements, upgrades and improvement projects.

* Develop project scopes, programmes, budgets and delivery plans.

* Coordinate feasibility, design, procurement, construction, commissioning and handover.

* Procure and manage specialist M&E contractors and subcontractors.

* Monitor programme, cost, quality and project risk.

* Manage variations, change control and project expenditure.

* Ensure works are delivered safely within a live operational building.

* Coordinate shutdowns, isolations and works affecting critical building services.

* Review technical drawings, specifications and contractor proposals.

* Ensure compliance with CDM, health & safety and relevant building regulations.

* Carry out regular site inspections and monitor contractor performance.

* Maintain accurate project documentation, O&M information and as-built records.

* Act as the primary point of contact for clients and internal stakeholders.

* Provide clear project updates, financial reporting and progress forecasts.

About You

* Strong Mechanical, Electrical or Building Services engineering background.

* Previous hands-on experience as an Engineer, Supervisor, Technical Manager or similar before moving into Project Management.

* Proven experience delivering M&E projects within occupied commercial buildings.

* Experience managing multiple small works projects simultaneously.

* Strong understanding of mechanical and electrical building services.

* Experience managing contractors, budgets, programmes and project risk.

* Comfortable working around live plant and critical engineering infrastructure.

* Experience within flagship commercial buildings, high-rise towers, banking, corporate headquarters or similarly complex estates would be highly advantageous.

* Good knowledge of CDM Regulations and construction health & safety.

* Relevant M&E, Engineering, Building Services or Project Management qualification would be advantageous.

Why Apply?

This is an excellent opportunity for an M&E professional who has successfully transitioned into Project Management and wants to work within one of London’s most prestigious commercial environments.

You’ll be responsible for a varied programme of technically focused projects within a complex high-rise building, working closely with the resident engineering team, specialist contractors and senior client stakeholders
