Building Services Manager

Job DescriptionOur client, a top-tier Main Contractor delivering high-profile Data Centre projects, is looking to appoint a Building Services Manager to lead MEP technical input from preconstruction through to delivery.\n

  • A hybrid working pattern: typically 3 days working from home, 2 days on site (across whichever project needs you most that week)
  • \n

  • Working closely with Design Managers, Commercial Leads and delivery teams across the portfolio
  • \n

Building Services Manager experience required:\n
