Higgins McGrath is recruiting for an experienced Mechanical Project Manager to join an established engineering and MEP contractor delivering major projects in London.

The opportunity could suit an experienced M&E Project Manager, MEP Project Manager, Mechanical Project Manager, Mechanical Contracts Manager or Building Services Manager looking for greater responsibility and ownership of complex projects.

The Role

As Mechanical Project Manager, you'll be responsible for the successful delivery of mechanical packages across major residential, commercial and infrastructure projects.

You'll work closely with clients, consultants, subcontractors, suppliers and construction teams to ensure projects are delivered safely, on programme, within budget and to the required technical standards.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing mechanical packages from design coordination through to installation, commissioning and handover
• Managing project programmes, resources and key delivery milestones
• Coordinating mechanical design requirements
• Reviewing drawings, specifications and technical documentation
• Managing procurement and ordering of key materials and equipment
• Appointing and managing subcontractors and specialist suppliers
• Managing in-house and subcontract labour resources
• Attending client, main contractor, design and progress meetings
• Monitoring programme, quality, health & safety and overall project performance
• Ensuring works comply with drawings, specifications and contractual requirements
• Managing contract changes and preparing costs for variations
• Preparing interim valuations in line with works completed

What We're Looking For

We're looking for an experienced mechanical construction professional with a strong track record of delivering complex and high value building services projects.

• Strong subcontractor and supply-chain management experience
• Good knowledge of construction programmes and project delivery

You'll work directly with clients, designers, subcontractors and construction teams on technically challenging projects where quality, safety, programme certainty and technical delivery are critical.

For an experienced Mechanical Project Manager, this could also provide the opportunity to broaden your experience and take responsibility for wider M&E/MEP project delivery.
