Ready to take ownership of high-value mechanical projects from concept through to completion?
I'm working with a successful and growing building services contractor who are looking to appoint two experienced Mechanical Project Managers to join their team.
Based from Newbury, with projects running along the A34 corridor and into London, this is a great opportunity for an experienced PM who wants to work on technically interesting office and life sciences fit-out projects, with values ranging from smaller works through to 2m.
You'll have genuine ownership of your projects, strong support from the wider team and the opportunity to build a long-term career with a business that is continuing to grow.
What's in it for you?
- 80,000+ basic salary
- Company car or 4,500 car allowance
- Private healthcare
- Company credit card
- Annual salary reviews
- Highvalue office & life sciences projects
- Project values from 1k - 2m
- Full project ownership from concept to completion
- Strong pipeline of secured work
- Opportunity to manage projects both independently and concurrently, depending on size
The Role
You'll take full responsibility for delivering mechanical projects from the initial concept and pre-construction stages through to final completion and handover.
You'll be responsible for:
- Managing mechanical projects from concept through to completion
- Managing project programmes, budgets and commercial performance
- Coordinating site teams, subcontractors, suppliers and consultants
- Managing procurement and project resources
- Overseeing design development and technical coordination
- Managing variations, valuations and commercial changes
- Monitoring progress, quality and programme
- Managing testing, commissioning and handover
- Building strong relationships with clients and project stakeholders
- Identifying project risks and finding practical solutions
- Managing multiple projects where required, depending on project size
What We're Looking For
We're keen to speak with experienced Mechanical Project Managers with a strong background in building services and commercial fit-out.
Ideally, you'll have experience with:
- Commercial office fitout
- Life sciences projects
- Mechanical building services
- Managing projects through the full project lifecycle
- Project values up to 2m
- Subcontractor and site team management
- Commercial and client management
- Programme and cost control
You'll need to be commercially aware, organised and confident taking ownership of your projects, while being able to work closely with clients, consultants and the wider project team.
The Opportunity
This is a really good opportunity to join a business with strong work in the pipeline, technically interesting projects and genuine scope to progress.
If you're a Mechanical Project Manager looking for your next move, with 80k+, a car/car allowance, private healthcare and the chance to manage projects from concept to completion, I'd love to have a confidential conversation.
