    Opportunity seldom knocks twice.

    If you are a Mechanical (Building Services) Design Engineer with at least four years' experience in HVAC Design, this is your chance to pivot into a dedicated MEP Design Manager role.

    You'll be involved in high-impact projects that benefit society and set new industry standards in design, sustainability and innovation.

    Rather than just developing the properties and then passing them on, this property developer and investor takes a long-term view. They purchase, develop, build, operate and maintain all of the buildings within their portfolio and take pride in the quality of all of their developments.

    Fully supported by a hands-on, technically superb and commercially aware, Senior MEP Manager you'll enjoy a fast-paced, challenging and diverse role.

You'll be responsible for managing specialist subcontractors, managing the design team and overseeing the commissioning process of the installed MEP services.

    Rather than just HVAC design, here you'll prepare specifications, approve technical drawings, carry out value engineering proposals of consultant's designs, carry out tender analysis and maintain relationships with manufacturers and external consultants.

    You'll split your time across multiple different landmark London developments such as hotels, commercial offices, retail stores, prime residential developments and leisure facilities.

    You'll attend these projects regularly (all in central London) and flag up any risks or potential delays to the Senior MEP Design Manager; and ensure projects are delivered on time and to budget.

    A bit a about the client.

    Established 20 years ago, this privately owned Property Development company has redeveloped some of London's most iconic buildings. They remain focussed on regenerating and decarbonising entire portfolios of buildings to benefit the communities that surround these developments.

    • Degree qualified in Mechanical Engineering, Building Services or equivalent.
    • At least four years' experience in HVAC design.
    • Previous experience working on the latter RIBA stages, ideally experience working with contractors or developers.
    • Good communication skills; able to build rapport with clients and colleagues.
    • Able to manage time effectively as you will be overseeing 3 to 5 live projects at any one time.
    • Able to work in the UK without the need to be sponsored.

    What they offer in return

    • Salary up to £65K
    • Secured pipeline of work for the next five years!
    • 25 days leave bank holidays.
    • Annual bonus.
    • Dedicated on the job training, to allow you to develop into a MEP Design Manager.
