Elevating London’s Commercial Standards

On behalf of our client, a premier building services and facilities management specialist, we are seeking an experienced Commercial Gas Engineer to manage high-specification assets across the capital. This role offers a sophisticated working environment, moving away from heavy industrial or social housing sites and focusing instead on a prestigious commercial portfolio.

The successful engineer will be responsible for maintaining the climate and safety systems within luxury hotels, corporate headquarters in the City, upscale retail environments, and high-security government buildings. This is a role for a technically sharp, professional engineer who understands the nuances of working in client-facing, high-end environments.

• Premium Tools & Tech: Access to the latest diagnostic software, a high-spec modern van (available for private use), and a mobile device for real-time reporting.
• Career Elevation: Our client invests heavily in cross-skilling, offering pathways into BMS (Building Management Systems), Chiller maintenance, or senior technical management.

Key Responsibilities

• Precision Maintenance: Delivering high-level PPM and reactive repairs on high-efficiency commercial boilers and multi-stage burners.
• Specialist Fault-Finding: Diagnosing complex issues within integrated HVAC systems, including controls and associated mechanical plant.
• Site Management: Coordinating with on-site facilities managers to ensure minimal disruption to hotel guests, office tenants, or retail operations.
• Compliance Excellence: Maintaining impeccable digital records of all gas safety inspections and remedial works.

The Professional Profile:

• Qualified Expert: Full suite of valid Commercial Gas tickets (COCN1/CODNCO1, CIGA1, CDGA1, CORT1, ICPN1, etc.).
• Sector Experience: A minimum of 5 years’ experience, ideally within the hospitality, corporate, or high-end retail sectors. Alternatively commercially qualified with significant domestic experience
• Client-Facing Skills: Strong communication skills and a tidy, professional appearance are essential for these environments.
• Mobility: Full UK Driving License (maximum 6 points).

Advantageous Skills:

• Experience with BMS interfaces (Trend, Honeywell, etc.).
• ACS Catering (COMCAT) or LPG qualifications.
• Domestic qualifications
