Contract Manager – Mechanical – Hvac – Outstanding Opportunity

Mechanical Project Manager / Contracts Manager / Real Progression to Director and Ownership

Essex & London -based HQ | Projects across Central London & the M25
£70,000 + £7,500 car allowance / company vehicle + Bonuses + (25% Future shares)

Why This Role Stands Out

This isn’t just another Project Manager role.
This is your chance to step into the senior leadership track of a highly respected mechanical contractor with a track record of delivering some of the UK’s most iconic projects — from Parliament and Buckingham Palace to landmark City towers and prestigious developments across London.

*

✅ Financially secure: over 10 years of profitable trading, £2m+ live orders, and zero overdraft reliance.

*

✅ The hard work is done: the business is stable, cash-positive, and growing.

*

✅ The future is wide open: with the MD starting to step back, there’s a genuine pathway to 25% equity in the business for the right person.

If you’re ambitious, commercially sharp, and ready to take ownership of projects and the business’s future, this is the kind of role that doesn’t come along often.

The Role

As Mechanical Project Manager / Contracts Manager, you’ll take full responsibility for delivering mechanical packages (HVAC, plant rooms, plumbing, pipework, etc.) across commercial, healthcare, education, and high-end residential projects.

*

Be the face of the company with clients — building trust and repeat business

*

Supervise and mentor engineers, site managers, and subcontractors

What We’re Looking For

*

5+ years’ experience in Mechanical Project / Contracts Management

*

Solid technical grounding in HVAC & building services

*

Strong track record across multiple sectors (commercial, healthcare, education, resi)

*

Commercially astute, with sharp procurement & cost-control skills

*

Leadership ability — someone who can inspire teams and deliver results

The Package

*

💷 £70,000 base salary (DOE)

*

🚗 £7,500 car allowance or company vehicle

*

🌴 25 days annual leave + bank holidays
