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.
