Whilst they are busy, they still continue to win prestigious projects installing mechanical and electrical services into commercial and industrial buildings UK wide.

As Pre-Construction Manager, you will be involved in the management of single or even multiple projects in the preconstruction stage.

Being a proactive team player, you will liaise with a Pre-Construction Director and the overall team in respect of upcoming projects, assisting in overall planning and programme delivery.

Candidates sought will have experience in managing the preconstruction processes ensuring the smooth transition from preconstruction to construction whilst maintaining strong relationships with clients, designers, architects and the project team. Therefore, you will naturally be a confident and clear communicator, professional and with a get-things-done attitude.

Prior experience as a Bid Manager or a related role is equally called for, bringing your vast experience to cross over to preconstruction and negotiated tenders.

You will have the opportunity to work alongside Business Development and assist with delivering client presentations whilst also liaising with the estimating team for various phases of pre-construction, programming, schematic design and design development.

This incredibly important role will see you use your ability and talent to move freely between departments whilst you manage the precon process.

You will tender and design compliance details with specifications and also attend early planning meetings with the clients; again, you will be comfortable in client-facing meetings and in control.

Candidates highly sought after will have experience coordinating preconstruction and cost planning inputs whilst assisting with pricing changes, working closely with Project Managers and negotiating subcontract packages including plant and the procurement of such.

Those applying who may have experience in Trimble / Amtech Estimating software need to make this clear on their CV and any experience of Mechanical & Electrical installations.

Should you be from a construction-led background, your CV will still be given serious consideration should you have the determination and desire to step into the world of precon M&E!

If you have this kind of background and experience in Bid Management or as a proven Pre-Construction Manager, M&E Operations Manager, Director, M&E BDM or similar, we will also give your CV and experience the consideration deserved.
