M&E Operations Manager

Job Title: M&E Operations Manager
Location: North & Central London
Salary: Up to £130,000 + Extensive Package (including bonus)

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an experienced M&E Operations Manager to join a leading Building Services Contractor delivering high-end residential and commercial projects across London.

I am working with a highly regarded M&E contractor who operate as a trusted delivery partner to Tier One main contractors and developers, including Berkeley Group, Landsec, Barratt London and L&Q. With a strong pipeline of secured work and continued growth across both the residential and commercial sectors, they are now looking to appoint an M&E Operations Manager to play a key role in the next phase of their expansion.

The business delivers complex, high-specification projects with MEP values typically ranging from £10 million up to £20 million+, working on flagship developments across the capital.

This role would suit an experienced Mechanical or Electrical professional with a strong background in project delivery, who is looking to step up into an operational leadership role with real influence across multiple projects and the wider business or someone who is looking to make a difference within a forward thinking contractor.

The successful individual will take ownership of 2-4 projects at any one time, ensuring successful delivery across programme, quality, commercial performance and client satisfaction. The role will be split between site (3 days) and office (2 days), offering a balanced and flexible working arrangement.

I am keen to speak with individuals who meet the following criteria:

Proven experience within an M&E or Building Services contractor
Strong background delivering high-end residential and/or commercial projects
Experience working alongside Tier One main contractors and developers such as Berkeley Group, Landsec, Barratt London or L&Q
Track record of delivering projects with MEP values in the £10m-£20m+ range
Mechanical or Electrical bias with a strong understanding of full MEP delivery
Experience managing multiple projects simultaneously (2-4 projects)
Strong leadership and team management capability across project and site teams
Commercial awareness with the ability to oversee procurement, programme and performance
Confident communicator, able to liaise with clients, consultants and senior stakeholders
Ambition to progress and play a key role in the future growth of the business

In return, the company can offer a long-term career opportunity with clear progression into senior leadership/shareholding, exposure to flagship projects, and the opportunity to have a genuine impact on a growing and forward-thinking business. The role offers a salary of up to £130,000 plus package, alongside a flexible working split between site and office.
