We are looking for two experienced Senior Mechanical Site Managers to join a major decarbonisation programme at Gatwick Airport.

These roles will be heavily involved in the pre-construction and delivery stages, working between site, design and project teams to ensure mechanical solutions are practical, coordinated and buildable within a complex live environment.

The Role

* Undertake detailed site surveys and investigations of existing mechanical/building services installations.

* Review and understand mechanical design, drawings and specifications, identifying potential issues before works commence.

* Work closely with design teams to develop buildable and practical solutions.

* Coordinate mechanical works with other disciplines and existing live services.

* Ensure works are delivered safely, to programme and in accordance with design and quality requirements.

* Strong understanding of buildability and coordination, with the ability to identify issues and develop practical solutions.

* Comfortable undertaking site surveys and assessing existing installations.

* Strong communication skills, with the ability to work effectively between design, project and site teams.

* Experience working on complex refurbishment, retrofit or live environments would be advantageous.
