Job description

Location: City of London
Salary: £110K- £115K per Year
Contract: Permanent
Type: Full Time

Fawkes & Reece are working with one of the most respected privately owned construction businesses in London, known for delivering technically complex, high-quality projects across fit-out and refurbishment.

They're not aiming to be the biggest, just the best at what they do. This is a company where smart, capable people thrive, and where autonomy, collaboration and accountability are part of the culture at every level.

They are now seeking a Lead Technical Services Manager to take a senior role within the delivery team helping to shape MEP strategy across key projects and mentoring others in the services function.

Why This Business Stands Out:

• Direct Access to Leadership: Fast decision-making, no red tape, and a culture that values input from the people closest to the job.
• Autonomy with Support: Run your work your way with backing from experienced, commercially aware leaders who trust their teams to perform.
• Collaborative Environment: Regular director-level sit-downs for senior staff foster inclusion and awareness across all projects.
• No Egos, Just Expertise: You'll work alongside highly capable professionals who care about doing good work and supporting each other.
• Opportunity to Grow: Whether you're mentoring others or continuing to develop yourself, the environment encourages progression through responsibility and real learning.

The Role:

As Lead TSM, you'll oversee MEP strategy and delivery across multiple projects from early design involvement to technical coordination and quality control through to commissioning and handover. You'll also help shape best practices and guide more junior members of the team.

What We're Looking For:

• Strong background delivering MEP packages on complex refurbishment or fit-out schemes
• Experience working for a main contractor or leading MEP specialist
• Strong technical knowledge and leadership capability
• Comfortable working independently but confident collaborating across disciplines

If you're a senior technical services professional ready to take ownership in a business where quality and culture come first, this could be the step up you're looking for.
