Mechanical Project Manager

An established MEP contractor is hiring a Mechanical Project Manager into its Blackburn office, to run mechanical delivery across its healthcare, education and public sector work.
The business has been delivering building services for close to forty years, with a second office in Yorkshire and design, installation and maintenance all handled in house. More than eighty of its engineers served their apprenticeship there, which tells you most of what you need to know about how long people stay.
The work runs across healthcare, education, leisure, local authority, residential and commercial, from upgrades inside live hospital departments through to decarbonisation schemes in schools.

Manage mechanical projects from mobilisation through commissioning, handover and close-out
Deliver HVAC, heating, plumbing and public health installations, including low-carbon systems
Plan and sequence works in occupied sites such as hospitals, schools and care settings
Lead in-house engineers and subcontractors on site
Coordinate with the in-house design and electrical teams
Act as the main point of contact for clients and main contractors on mechanical matters
Manage programmes, procurement, cost reporting and variations alongside the commercial team
Oversee testing, commissioning and O&M documentation
Maintain health, safety and quality standards throughout

Proven experience as a Mechanical Project Manager with an M&E or mechanical contractor
A record of delivering projects end to end, rather than picking them up part way through
Strong technical knowledge of HVAC, heating, ventilation and plumbing
Experience in healthcare, education, leisure or public sector settings
Confident managing clients, site teams and subcontractors
Commercial awareness across programme and cost control
A relevant building services qualification such as an HNC, plus SMSTS and CSCS
A full UK driving licence
Decarbonisation or low-carbon heating experience is useful but not essential. It is a growing part of the workload rather than a requirement to get through the door.

£65,000 to £70,000 depending on experience, plus a full benefits package
A business that has been doing this for nearly forty years, with the retention to show for it
Design, installation and maintenance in house, so you are not managing around gaps
Varied work across healthcare, education, leisure and local authority
A growing share of decarbonisation and low-carbon work
