Additional Information

I am keen to speak with M&E designers, coordinators, project managers etc. who feel they could excel in a contractor design team. You will need relevant design and/or installation experience gained with a multi‑disciplinary consultant, contractor or developer design team. This opportunity would suit those with a mixed project background, and experience within both Mechanical and Electrical disciplines would be an advantage. Equally important is your ability to collaborate and be a key team player, with the personality and approach to help make projects a success, and help us develop and mentor our team, and maintain excellent relationships with our clients.
