Job description

Senior Electrical Project Manager - Tier 1 MEP Contractor

Fawkes & Reece are working with a leading Tier 1 building services contractor to recruit a Senior Electrical Project Manager. This is an outstanding opportunity to join a collaborative, people-focused organisation delivering major commercial projects across the capital.

The Role

This position sits at the forefront of early-stage project development through pre-construction and into delivery on a £50 million commercial scheme in london.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead Electrical input across tenders, bids, pre-construction and planning.
• Produce technical proposals, delivery methodologies, programme assumptions and risk strategies.
• Work closely with electrical, commercial, planning and construction leads to build winning bids.
• Provide continuity as schemes move from bid through into delivery.
• Ensure design, safety, quality and technical standards are rigorously upheld.
• Build effective working relationships with internal teams, clients, consultants and JV partners.
• Promote a collaborative, integrated "one team" approach across all project stakeholders.

Candidate Profile

• Proven experience in tendering/bidding in addition to project delivery.

• A people-focused, non-adversarial leadership style.
• Ability to communicate clearly across all project phases with clients and internal teams.
• Stable career history with the desire for long-term development and progression.

Why This Role Stands Out

Our client is a modern Tier 1 contractor known for:

• A highly collaborative, respectful and non-confrontational culture.
• Avoiding the typical "subby bashing" mentality - they want problem solvers, not adversaries.
• Selecting the right projects, not chasing turnover at any cost.
• Strong client relationships and repeat business on major commercial schemes.
• Exceptional investment in people through mentoring, structured development and clear succession planning.
• Long-term career progression paths with genuine opportunities to step into senior leadership roles.

Package & Working Style

• Competitive salary and package on top
• Opportunity to work on and deliver flagship projects in central London
• Career progression
• Project longevity
