Job description

Our client is a successful M&E Consultancy who have been operating for over 20 years, delivering MEP projects throughout the UK and in more recent times across parts of Europe.

The business provides a full suite of engineering services including Building Services Design, Energy and Sustainability Strategies, Fire Engineering, Utility and Infrastructure Master Planning, along with a range of Report and Advisory services. With a lesser reliance on contractors and a greater focus on working directly with end users and developers, this practice enjoys a close working relationship with its customers and importantly retains a true consultative identity. Early involvement in all live schemes and the opportunity to genuinely impact all stages of the preconstruction design phases are just two reasons this forward thinking and intelligently placed consultancy, differs to many of their competitors. Minimizing costs, maximising energy savings and delivering low carbon fit for purpose environments sits at the very heart of the business strategy, a service that s rewarded with regular repeat business year on year and provides a fantastic long term platform for expansion.

As the company embraces organic growth, whilst also preparing for long term succession planning and change management, a career defining opportunity to lead the organisation and drive forward an ambitious business plan has now arisen. Core markets currently include large residential and mixed-use developments, distribution and logistics, retail and leisure, offering both an interesting and challenging portfolio of work for all staff to be engaged upon.

The entrepreneurial ownership group are extremely well connected within the wider construction and real estate sectors, with commercial interests across numerous businesses and investments. A Building Services professional with substantial standing in the industry would provide the strongest fit, utilising their own reputation and contacts to further enhance operations and resource, whilst shaping the future of the company and identifying additional profitable avenues and collaborations.

Applications are invited from senior MEP Engineering professionals with a proven track record of operational growth, C-suite level business development, expansion strategies and multi office leadership all within a building services environment. Extensive experience managing SME businesses and detailed understanding of the challenges operating in the constriction industry face is essential.
