Junior Technical Services Manager - Commercial Fit Out London / City Based £40,000 - £60,000 DOE Major Commercial Fit Out Project Permanent We're working with a growing London fit-out contractor who is looking to bring a Junior Technical Services Manager into the business. This is a really good opportunity for someone who has built their experience within mechanical or MEP services and is now looking to make the move into a Technical Services Manager role. You don't necessarily need to already be a TSM. We'd be keen to speak with people currently working as a Mechanical Engineer, MEP Engineer, M&E Manager, Mechanical Site Manager or Subcontractor Site Manager who have strong technical knowledge and want the opportunity to step up and develop on the main contractor side. The role You'll initially be based on a high-profile commercial fit-out project for a major international banking client in the City of London, which is due to start on site within the next 3-4 weeks. Working alongside an experienced Senior Technical Services Manager and the wider project team, you'll get exposure to the full technical delivery of the scheme and be given the opportunity to develop into a well-rounded TSM. The role will involve: Supporting the management and coordination of MEP packages from design through to delivery Working closely with consultants, subcontractors and the internal project team Reviewing drawings, technical information and design changes Understanding programme, cost and commercial implications of technical decisions Managing and coordinating specialist M&E subcontractors on site Identifying technical issues early and helping drive solutions Supporting commissioning, testing and project handover Ensuring services are delivered in line with the design, programme and quality expectations Who we're looking for Ideally, you'll come from a mechanically biased background, with experience gained within an M&E subcontractor, specialist contractor, consultancy or main contracting environment. We're particularly interested in someone who understands the practical delivery of building services but also wants to develop their knowledge around design, cost, coordination and the wider commercial side of a project. You might already be working within technical services, or you could be an Engineer / Site Manager who feels ready for that next step. Commercial office fit-out experience would be a big advantage, but we're equally interested in the right person with strong MEP fundamentals and the attitude to learn. Why consider it? This isn't a role where you'll disappear into a huge corporate structure. You'll be joining a growing, ambitious London contractor with an experienced senior team, a strong pipeline of commercial fit-out work and a genuinely hands-on approach to delivering projects. The business has the capability and experience you'd expect from a much larger contractor, but still has the feel of a close-knit team where people are visible, trusted and given the opportunity to progress. For someone looking to make the move into Technical Services Management, it's a chance to learn directly from an experienced Senior TSM, work on a major City project and build a long-term career within a business that's continuing to grow. If you're currently working within mechanical / MEP services and have been thinking about moving into a TSM position, I'd be really keen to have a confidential conversation.

Project Manage r Channel Islands Competitive salary + Accommodation provided Permanent Please note: Although this role is advertised in London, we are looking for someone who is willing to live and work in the Channel Islands. A well-regarded construction company with established operations in the Channel Islands is strengthening its management team with the appointment of an experienced Project Manager. This is a senior, site-based role on a high-specification project with around two years to run, offering the right person a genuine opportunity to lead a complex build from the front and to build a long-term future with a respected business. Although this role is advertised in Bristol, it is based in the Channel Islands. So it would require you to live and work in the Channel. About the role: You will be the figurehead on site: the visible point of leadership running the project day to day and representing the company throughout. This is a role with real ownership, where you set the tone on site and are trusted to keep a demanding project moving.Your core focus will be coordination across every part of the project. You will work closely with the professional team, including designers, architects, and MEP consultants, bringing the various disciplines together so that the project progresses smoothly and without surprises. You will chair and manage consultant meetings, making sure that decisions are made, recorded, and followed through, and that everyone involved is working to the same programme and the same standard. You will also act as the key point of contact with the client. Building and maintaining that relationship is central to the role, keeping the client informed, managing expectations, and representing the company in a way that reflects its strong reputation. This is a reasonably complex, high-specification build, so it suits someone who is comfortable holding the detail across multiple disciplines while keeping the wider programme, the budget, and the quality of delivery firmly on track. With around two years still to run, there is plenty of scope to make a meaningful mark on the project and to see it through a significant phase of its life . What we are looking for You will bring a solid background in project management within construction, ideally gained on high-specification or technically demanding projects where quality and coordination really matter. Experience managing and coordinating a professional team is important, as is the confidence to take ownership of the client relationship and to be the senior presence on site. We are looking for someone who is organised, calm under pressure, and able to bring people together around a shared plan. Strong communication skills matter as much as technical knowledge, since so much of the role is about keeping consultants, designers, and clients aligned and moving in the same direction. That said, we are flexible on exact background. If you are close to this profile and have the right blend of experience and approach, we would still very much like to hear from you. The opportunity This is a single-status role and would suit someone looking to relocate to the Channel Islands, whether on a temporary basis for the duration of the project or as a permanent move. The Channel Islands offer an excellent quality of life, a strong sense of community, and a genuinely attractive setting in which to live and work, making this an appealing move for the right person. Accommodation is provided, which makes relocating considerably more straightforward, and the salary is competitive and reflective of the seniority of the role. Beyond the immediate project, there is genuine scope for the right person to make the role their own and to develop a lasting position with the business. Interested? Apply through this advert. We are happy to share more about the client, the project, and the package once we have had an initial conversation.
