Mechanical Project Manager
If you are an ambitious, mechanically biased project manager who wants to join an M&E contractor who specialises in fast track, fit out in the commercial sector with a dedicated growth plan and significant financial backing this might be the career making move you’ve been looking for.
The Role - Mechanical Project Manager
Having worked in the commercial fit out market as an mechanical project manager you will have extensive experience in taking the project from the pre-con design phase through to handover.

The role is for a mechanical project manager to work on the crown court building in Norwich. It’s a 40 week run time and it starts in November but they would want you in earlier to work on the pre-construction work. They have an office based in London Bridge that you can use in the interim before the project but as with when it starts they would only expect you there as and when you had to be rather than 5 days a week.
The project itself is out of hours work but they will have a site manager based there full time so you would go up one or two days a week during the day and manage the work to then hand over to them in the evening.
Once the project has run it’s course you would be moved onto projects closer to home but again you would not need to be in the office or on site full time, it’s an adult work environment and people are trusted to get on with the work.
The Company
The company are a newer branch of an existing group that has been operating for some time now and is growing at a serious pace. There is a clear growth plan that they are on track with and there will be plenty of opportunities for someone to grow into a senior role with the business.
Remuneration
No two project managers are the same so the range in salaries can be large on occasion. Depending on the experience you bring and the value to the business you can expect anywhere between £55,000 and £65,000 + travel.
Shortlisting has begun so if you would like a spot then apply now

Once the project has run it’s course you would be moved onto projects closer to home but again you would not need to be in the office or on site full time, it’s an adult work environment and people are trusted to get on with the work.
