Building Services Engineer
About the role
Building Services Engineer
Exeter | Devon & Somerset Portfolio
100 properties. Huge variety. Real technical autonomy.
Fancy a Building Services role where you're not looking after the same four walls every day?
We're recruiting for an established public-sector organisation looking for an experienced Building Services Engineer to take technical responsibility for M&E services across a diverse estate of approximately 100 properties throughout Devon and Somerset. From operational facilities and workshops to training centres and offices, this is a genuinely varied portfolio offering everything from planned maintenance and statutory compliance through to major M&E upgrades and improvement projects.
The Role
Working alongside the Estates team, you'll become the go-to technical specialist for Mechanical & Electrical building services.
You'll be responsible for:
Managing M&E maintenance, statutory compliance and improvement programmes.
Undertaking building inspections, condition surveys and asset assessments.
Delivering M&E projects from specification through to completion.
Managing specialist contractors, consultants and maintenance providers.
Overseeing budgets, procurement, quality and Health & Safety.
Identifying opportunities to improve energy efficiency and modernise building systems. About You
We're looking for someone with a strong Mechanical, Electrical or Building Services engineering background, ideally with experience across property maintenance, facilities management or multi-site estates.
You'll understand M&E systems, statutory compliance and contractor management, with the confidence to take ownership of projects and provide practical technical advice.
A relevant engineering qualification would be advantageous, although solid industry experience is equally important.
Why Consider It?
Variety: Around 100 buildings with different engineering challenges.
Autonomy: Become the technical authority for M&E across the estate.
Projects: A genuine mix of maintenance, refurbishment and improvement works.
Location: Exeter-based, covering Devon and Somerset.
Impact: Help shape future investment, maintenance strategies and energy improvements. If you're looking for a role offering more variety, responsibility and technical freedom, we'd love to hear from you
