You'll take ownership of projects from pre-construction through to completion, coordinating clients, main contractors, design teams and site labour to deliver on time, on budget and to spec.
This is a hands-on role. You won't be managing from behind a desk. You'll be on site, in the meetings, and across the detail from pre-start to handover.

* Planning and programming electrical works, coordinating with the main contractor's overall project schedule
* Liaising with clients, architects, M&E consultants and other trades to keep delivery smooth
* Managing labour, subcontractors and material procurement to keep projects on track
* Monitoring project costs against budget, tracking variations and change orders
* Ensuring all works comply with BS 7671, building regulations and health and safety standards
* Carrying out site inspections and quality checks throughout the project lifecycle
* Preparing and managing O&M manuals, test certificates and handover documentation
* Attending site and progress meetings, reporting status to senior management and clients
* Identifying and managing project risks, resolving issues as they arise on site
What we're looking for
* Proven experience managing electrical installation projects, ideally in commercial fit-out
* Strong commercial fit-out background
* Solid working knowledge of BS 7671, building regulations and site health and safety
* Confident coordinating clients, main contractors, consultants and trades
* Commercially sharp, comfortable tracking budgets, variations and change orders
* Relevant tickets an advantage (SMSTS or SSSTS, CSCS, ECS or JIB, first aid)
* Organised, hands-on, and happy to be on site and in the room, not behind a desk
