Mechanical and Electrical Projects / Contracts Director Central London Full-time Permanent 110,000 - 130,000 + bonus + car allowance + private medical including dental + 5% matched pension + 25 days holiday plus bank holidays If you have got to the point where running one project or one account is no longer enough, this is the kind of role that gives you wider control without dragging you too far away from the work that actually matters. This is not a title built around sitting above the detail and only stepping in when there is a problem. It is a senior leadership role for someone who understands what strong M&E delivery looks like across multiple projects, knows how to build capable teams, and can keep grip on performance without creating noise. You would be taking responsibility across a portfolio of technically demanding critical infrastructure projects in Central London, helping shape how schemes are won, staffed, delivered and closed out. The business operates in complex building services environments where programme certainty, technical quality, sequencing and client confidence are all under constant pressure. The projects themselves are not generic commercial installs. They sit in the critical infrastructure space, where the standard of leadership has a direct impact on delivery, repeat business and divisional growth. This role is about giving someone the room to lead across that properly. You will be overseeing senior project and contracts teams across multiple live schemes, while working closely with commercial, technical and pre-construction functions to make sure projects are set up correctly from the start. That means looking beyond day-to-day reporting and taking real ownership of how the division performs, where risks sit, how teams are structured and how clients experience the business. This would suit someone already operating at a high level within an M&E contractor, whether currently as a Contracts Director, Senior Contracts Manager, Operations Manager or in a comparable leadership role. The key is that you have experience managing multiple teams and projects at once, and that you can bring the right balance of delivery focus, commercial awareness and leadership presence. The role You will take ownership of a portfolio of critical infrastructure and technically complex M&E projects across Central London, ensuring they are properly resourced, commercially controlled and operationally aligned from pre-start through to commissioning and handover. You will lead and support Project Managers, Contracts Managers and senior site teams, helping drive standards around programme, coordination, labour strategy, procurement, client management, quality and overall project performance. You will work closely with pre-construction, commercial and technical teams to ensure risks are identified early, projects are mobilised properly and delivery teams are not left trying to recover issues that should have been addressed upstream. You will help create more consistency across project reporting, forecasting, resource planning and operational standards, bringing stronger structure to the division rather than reacting to problems once they appear. You will maintain and grow key client relationships, acting as a credible senior point of contact and helping turn strong project delivery into repeat opportunities. You will also play a meaningful role in recruitment, team development and succession planning, helping strengthen the capability of the business as it grows. What they are looking for A proven senior leader from an M&E building services background, with experience overseeing multiple projects, teams and live delivery functions. A strong understanding of complex project delivery within critical infrastructure, mission-critical or technically demanding commercial environments. The ability to lead senior teams without losing sight of commercial control, operational standards and client expectations. A track record of improving performance, creating structure and building teams that can deliver consistently. The confidence and credibility to operate with clients, consultants, directors and project teams alike. A leadership style that is visible, steady and delivery-focused rather than overly corporate or detached. Why this role stands out A lot of senior positions promise influence, but in reality they still leave you tied to one major problem job or acting as a fixer across schemes that were never set up right in the first place. This role offers something broader and more worthwhile than that. It gives you the opportunity to take a genuine lead across a portfolio of high-profile critical infrastructure projects, while helping shape standards, people and performance across the wider business. If you want a role with seniority, substance and room to make a visible impact, this is the level where that starts.

Mechanical and Electrical Projects / Contracts Director Central London Full-time Permanent 110,000 - 130,000 + bonus + car allowance + private medical including dental + 5% matched pension + 25 days holiday plus bank holidays If you have got to the point where running one project or one account is no longer enough, this is the kind of role that gives you wider control without dragging you too far away from the work that actually matters. This is not a title built around sitting above the detail and only stepping in when there is a problem. It is a senior leadership role for someone who understands what strong M&E delivery looks like across multiple projects, knows how to build capable teams, and can keep grip on performance without creating noise. You would be taking responsibility across a portfolio of technically demanding critical infrastructure projects in Central London, helping shape how schemes are won, staffed, delivered and closed out. The business operates in complex building services environments where programme certainty, technical quality, sequencing and client confidence are all under constant pressure. The projects themselves are not generic commercial installs. They sit in the critical infrastructure space, where the standard of leadership has a direct impact on delivery, repeat business and divisional growth. This role is about giving someone the room to lead across that properly. You will be overseeing senior project and contracts teams across multiple live schemes, while working closely with commercial, technical and pre-construction functions to make sure projects are set up correctly from the start. That means looking beyond day-to-day reporting and taking real ownership of how the division performs, where risks sit, how teams are structured and how clients experience the business. This would suit someone already operating at a high level within an M&E contractor, whether currently as a Contracts Director, Senior Contracts Manager, Operations Manager or in a comparable leadership role. The key is that you have experience managing multiple teams and projects at once, and that you can bring the right balance of delivery focus, commercial awareness and leadership presence. The role You will take ownership of a portfolio of critical infrastructure and technically complex M&E projects across Central London, ensuring they are properly resourced, commercially controlled and operationally aligned from pre-start through to commissioning and handover. You will lead and support Project Managers, Contracts Managers and senior site teams, helping drive standards around programme, coordination, labour strategy, procurement, client management, quality and overall project performance. You will work closely with pre-construction, commercial and technical teams to ensure risks are identified early, projects are mobilised properly and delivery teams are not left trying to recover issues that should have been addressed upstream. You will help create more consistency across project reporting, forecasting, resource planning and operational standards, bringing stronger structure to the division rather than reacting to problems once they appear. You will maintain and grow key client relationships, acting as a credible senior point of contact and helping turn strong project delivery into repeat opportunities. You will also play a meaningful role in recruitment, team development and succession planning, helping strengthen the capability of the business as it grows. What they are looking for A proven senior leader from an M&E building services background, with experience overseeing multiple projects, teams and live delivery functions. A strong understanding of complex project delivery within critical infrastructure, mission-critical or technically demanding commercial environments. The ability to lead senior teams without losing sight of commercial control, operational standards and client expectations. A track record of improving performance, creating structure and building teams that can deliver consistently. The confidence and credibility to operate with clients, consultants, directors and project teams alike. A leadership style that is visible, steady and delivery-focused rather than overly corporate or detached. Why this role stands out A lot of senior positions promise influence, but in reality they still leave you tied to one major problem job or acting as a fixer across schemes that were never set up right in the first place. This role offers something broader and more worthwhile than that. It gives you the opportunity to take a genuine lead across a portfolio of high-profile critical infrastructure projects, while helping shape standards, people and performance across the wider business. If you want a role with seniority, substance and room to make a visible impact, this is the level where that starts.

Mechanical Pre-Contracts Engineer / Mechanical Design & Estimating Engineer Egham - 70,000 - 110,000 + package This is not a standard estimator position, and it is not a standard design engineer position either. It sits between the two. The role needs someone who can look at a building, understand the existing mechanical services, work out the right solution, develop the design thinking behind it and then help price the work properly. It is technical, commercial and practical in equal measure. The business is a specialist mechanical services contractor delivering HVAC, CAT A, CAT B, fit-out and refurbishment projects across commercial, industrial and public sector environments. They provide design and build mechanical services across heating, ventilation, air conditioning, water, plumbing and sanitary systems, with in-house design capability and practical delivery experience behind it. The company is now looking for a senior mechanical pre-contracts engineer because one of the key people in the business is planning to step back towards the end of 2026. He will still be involved in the background, but the intention is to bring someone in who can take on more of the front-end engineering, surveying, design review, estimating and client-facing technical work over time. This is a proper opportunity to grow into a central role in the business. The company has traded steadily at around 7m- 10m turnover for the last 7-10 years, and typically reviews around 300 opportunities a year, with roughly 30-36 projects won and delivered annually. That gives the role a strong mix of volume, technical variety and genuine influence over what the business chooses to pursue. The work is mainly CAT A, CAT B, student accommodation and retail, with a lot of the value sitting in the early-stage thinking. You will be looking at enquiries, attending surveys, understanding existing buildings, developing mechanical solutions and helping produce a price that reflects the actual scope, risk and buildability of the project. The design offering is based around taking projects from first technical drawings through to final installation, either by developing designs in-house or working from existing drawings, notes and technical specifications. That is exactly why this role needs someone who can operate across both design and estimating rather than sitting in one narrow lane. The estimating side does not need to be perfect from day one. If that is the weaker part of your background, it can be developed. What cannot be missing is the mechanical engineering understanding. You need to know how systems work, how they are installed, what can go wrong on site, and how to spot whether a design or specification is practical before it becomes a problem for the delivery team. You may currently be a mechanical design engineer, pre-contracts engineer, contracts engineer, project engineer or senior estimator. The job title matters less than the way you think. This role needs someone who can understand the technical requirement, challenge it where needed, and help turn it into a buildable, commercially sensible mechanical package. What you will be doing Reviewing mechanical enquiries, drawings, specifications and client requirements. Attending site surveys and understanding existing mechanical services. Developing practical mechanical solutions across heating, ventilation, air conditioning, water and plumbing services. Working across CAT A, CAT B, student accommodation, retail and wider commercial fit-out projects. Supporting the estimating and pricing process, including scope review, supplier engagement and technical clarification. Identifying risks, omissions, design gaps, access issues and buildability concerns before the project reaches site. Working with clients, consultants, suppliers, engineers and project managers through the pre-contract stage. Helping hand projects over properly so the delivery team understands the design intent, scope, risks and pricing assumptions. Working alongside an established internal team of engineers and project managers. What you will need A strong mechanical building services background. Experience in mechanical design, estimating, pre-contracts, project engineering or contracts engineering. A good understanding of mechanical systems on paper and on site. Experience across HVAC, pipework, ventilation, heating, cooling, plant, domestic water or general mechanical infrastructure. The ability to survey buildings, understand what is already installed and develop a suitable solution. Confidence reviewing drawings, specifications and technical information. An HNC, HND or degree in mechanical engineering / building services would be ideal. The ability to deal with clients, consultants, suppliers and internal delivery teams. A practical, commercially aware approach to pre-construction. This would suit someone who wants more influence over how work is won, shaped and handed over. It is a senior role, but not one where you are expected to walk in and simply replace someone overnight. The business wants someone who can grow into the position properly, take ownership over time and become a key part of the pre-contracts function. Interested If this sounds like the right kind of move, please apply with a copy of your CV or get in touch for a confidential conversation. This is a good opportunity for someone who understands mechanical building services and wants to move into a role with more influence at the front end of projects, without being boxed into either pure estimating or pure design.
