Are you an experienced M&E Pre-Construction Director, Head of Pre-Construction or Operations Manager looking to join one of London's leading M&E contractors?

  • Review technical submissions, value engineering proposals and project programmes.
  • Coordinate with estimating, commercial, design and operational teams to ensure seamless project delivery.
  • Attend client meetings and presentations, building strong relationships with developers, consultants and main contractors.
  • Ensure projects are commercially viable and technically robust before construction commences.
  • Drive continuous improvement across all pre-construction processes.

Requirements

  • Relevant Mechanical or Electrical qualification.
  • Proven experience managing pre-construction activities on major M&E projects.
  • Strong leadership experience managing teams within an M&E contractor.
  • Experience delivering projects valued up to £50m M&E is highly desirable.
  • Excellent commercial awareness and technical knowledge.
  • Strong client-facing and stakeholder management skills.
  • Candidates currently working as Operations Managers with significant pre-construction responsibility are encouraged to apply.

What's on Offer

  • £100,000 - £120,000 basic salary (DOE) plus comprehensive package or £500 - £600 per day (CIS/Ltd).
  • Central London office location.
  • Opportunity to join a financially secure £150m turnover M&E contractor with an exceptional project pipeline.
  • Clear progression within a growing business.
  • Opportunity to influence business strategy while working directly alongside the Managing Director.
  • Long-term career stability with exposure to some of London's most prestigious residential, mixed-use and commercial developments.
