Our Client is a well known and highly respected independent M&E Design and Build Contractor, located on the outskirts of Leeds. Trading successfully for over 30 years, the business has long been associated with the leisure, retail and industrial sectors in particular, providing full mechanical and electrical building services design and installation services for projects nationwide. The demand for MEP design and preconstruction services grows year on year, currently resourced through a combination of inhouse expertise and outsourced partners. With the long term ambition to deliver more design projects internally and further reduce the need to outsource, the business is keen to secure the services of an energetic MEP Design Manager to oversee the flow of information and work closely with the operations team to deliver live projects to time and cost. The appointed Engineer will have a strong building services design background, ideally gained within a commercially focused M&E Contractor, however experience gained within a consultancy or public sector estates environment will also be considered. Extensive experience of taking a brief from initial survey and concept, through to handover is absolutely essential, guiding schemes through all stages of the design process. Whilst the role requires an element of hands on design, understanding the costs and challenges to ensure schemes are feasible before time and resource is spent, is the priority. Applications are invited from commercially astute Building Services Design Engineers with a wealth of knowledge across new build and refurbishment building projects. This position will require a flexible client facing approach, attending multi-disciplinary meetings and educating customers on the viability of schemes before next steps are agreed
