Mechanical Project Manager – Long term freelance – based Birmingham – circa £320 per day

AndersElite are recruiting for a Mechanical Project Manager for a reputable building services contractor, based in their Birmingham office.

This is a long term freelance position, with the potential to lead to permanent employment if it suits all parties, available from January / February 2026 and will offer a day rate of approximately £320 per day.

Our client is well established in the Midlands and further afield, so this is an exciting opportunity for an experienced Mechanical Project Manager to join an experienced team.

Reporting into the Director, the selected candidate will be required to oversee mechanical services installations on new build and refurbishment projects within the commercial and office space sector.

Typical projects will range in value from £250k up to £1m in mechanical services value, so applicants should have proven experience as the overall mechanical lead on projects of this size in relevant building environments.

This is hybrid role which can be done from the office in Birmingham, some working from home and regular site visits which can be nationwide.

The Mechanical Project Manager will be fully responsible for the running of projects (up to a maximum of three at one time) from inception through to completion, assisting on design and project planning, overseeing site installation, as well as all cost control and commercial management.

This position is available from January 2026, with applications welcome from candidates who are either immediately available or serving a notice period with their current employer.

It is advantageous for candidates to possess a degree / HNC in Building Services or any other technical qualifications, including SMSTS / CSCS for site management, although all applicantswill be judged primarily on their previous experience.

If you are interested in this role please send your current CV urgently to Richard Bradley and you will receive a prompt call back should it be deemed likely of interest to our client
