With more than two decades in building services and 80+ directly employed colleagues, the business combines in-house construction, mechanical and electrical expertise with design, off-site manufacturing and maintenance capabilities.

Your role

Reporting to the Construction Division Lead, you’ll take responsibility for project delivery, coordinating construction activities and working closely with mechanical, electrical and design colleagues.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Developing project programmes and coordinating labour, materials and subcontractors.

What we’re looking for

• At least 10 years’ construction industry experience.
• Proven construction project management and site management experience.
• Experience coordinating subcontractors, suppliers and project programmes.
• Strong commercial awareness, including budget management and cost control.
• A sound understanding of construction health and safety.

Why consider this opportunity?

You’ll join an employee-owned business where you can take responsibility for delivery and contribute to the development of its Construction Division.

Its integrated approach gives you access to experienced design, mechanical and electrical colleagues, alongside an in-house off-site manufacturing facility. An established security-cleared workforce and supply chain also support its work in defence and justice environments.
