Electrical Project Manager

Location: Devon (Exeter - Plymouth)

I am looking to engage with experienced Electrical Project Managers to join our client's team, based from their Devon office and overseeing projects across Devon, covering the Exeter to Plymouth region.

This is an excellent opportunity to join an established M&E contractor, taking responsibility for the successful delivery of a varied portfolio of electrical projects across the education, healthcare and commercial sectors, including both new-build and refurbishment/fit-out schemes.

Working between the office and sites, you will take ownership of projects from pre-construction and design development through to installation, commissioning and final handover. You'll play a key role in ensuring projects are delivered safely, efficiently and profitably, whilst maintaining strong relationships with clients, consultants and supply chain partners.

The Role & Responsibilities

• Managing electrical projects from initial pre-construction stages through to completion and final client handover.
• Overseeing pre-construction design activities, reviewing technical information and ensuring designs are suitable for installation.
• Checking electrical design drawings, identifying potential issues and exploring opportunities for value engineering and cost efficiencies.
• Attending client, progress and design team meetings, providing updates and resolving project-related issues.
• Preparing, managing and monitoring contract programmes, ensuring works are delivered against agreed timescales.
• Producing regular progress reports and keeping clients and internal stakeholders informed.
• Managing the procurement of plant, materials and equipment in line with specifications, drawings and project cost plans.
• Identifying, procuring and managing subcontractors, ensuring quality, programme and commercial expectations are met.
• Monitoring project costs, preparing cost forecasts and maintaining financial control throughout the project lifecycle.
• Identifying, recording and costing variations, ensuring these are properly managed and agreed.
• Coordinating installation activities and working closely with site teams to maintain project progress.
• Overseeing testing, commissioning and the preparation of all necessary documentation ahead of final handover.

What We're Looking For

• A minimum of 5 years' experience in an Electrical Project Management role within the M&E/building services sector.
• A strong technical understanding of electrical building services installations.
• Good commercial awareness, with the ability to manage project budgets, costs and variations.
• Experience managing projects within sectors such as education, healthcare or commercial buildings.
• The ability to interpret technical drawings, specifications and contract documentation.
• Experience producing and managing project programmes using Asta Powerproject and/or Microsoft Project.
• Strong organisational, communication and client-facing skills.
• The ability to manage multiple priorities and drive projects through to successful completion.
• SMSTS or an equivalent site management qualification.
• A BTEC, HNC or HND in an electrical or building services-related discipline would be advantageous.

The Opportunity

This is a great opportunity for an established Electrical Project Manager looking to take ownership of a varied project portfolio, work across some interesting sectors and become part of an experienced M&E team.

If you have a strong electrical building services background, enjoy managing projects from start to finish and are looking for your next challenge, we'd be keen to hear from you.
