Job description

Job Title: Regional M&E Operations Director
Salary: Up to 150,000 + Executive Package (Bonus, Private Healthcare, Travel & More)
Location: Central London

I'm working in close partnership with one of the UK's most respected and forward-thinking M&E Building Services Contractors, renowned for delivering landmark projects across life sciences, data centres, commercial offices, and large-scale residential sectors.

Due to continued growth and a secured pipeline of work surpassing 300 million across the next 24-36 months, the business is now seeking a Regional Operations Director to lead their expanding London division. This is a newly created, board-affecting role - making it an exceptionally rare opportunity to shape the direction of an ambitious and modern contractor during a period of strategic expansion.

Ideal Candidate Profile:

We are looking to speak with influential M&E leaders who bring:

• Extensive experience overseeing the operational delivery of major 30m+ M&E projects.
• Proven ability to manage multiple workstreams and drive efficiency across delivery, pre-construction, and commercial operations.
• Strong client-facing skills - someone who thrives in front of blue-chip developers, consultants, and Tier 1 main contractors.
• A strategic mindset with a passion for team development, continuous improvement, and business scaling.
• A background in building long-term relationships and contributing to business growth and reputation.

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Executive Leadership: Direct influence over London operations with a seat at the table for strategic decisions.
• Growth Trajectory: Join at a pivotal time in the company's journey and play a key role in reaching the next level.
• Top-Tier Projects: Lead delivery across some of the most high-profile schemes in London and the Southeast.
• Tailored Package: Executive compensation, including performance bonuses, private medical, and travel expenses.

If you're an experienced M&E leader ready to step into a truly defining role with a thriving contractor, this is your moment.
