We are working with a Tier 1 contractor based near Reading to recruit a new Building Services/Technical Manager for the business.
The company is a national brand with an excellent reputation in their chosen marketplace and has excellent long-term relationships with clients, subcontractors, and the wider supply chain. They have a forward-thinking approach to staff engagement, and there are opportunities to grow and develop your career with them.
The regional office is based near Slough, but the geographical area covers the M4 Corridor, Thames Valley, and Oxfordshire. They target work in the education, public sector, retail, leisure, and commercial marketplaces on negotiated and framework opportunities. Turnover for 2025 and 2026 has been secured.
Current live projects include new build Higher Education, Primary Schools, Leisure and Retail developments, local authority schemes, as well as NHS projects, all won on a 2-stage process through a range of frameworks such as SCF, Pagabo, and DFE, with values ranging from £20 million to £90 million.
The role is to take full responsibility for the services packages across a range of projects. You will be involved with the bid and estimating teams at the preconstruction stage to look at feasibility, programme times, and buildability of the schemes. You will work with the design and commercial teams and subcontractors to establish best practice, price, and procedures for the schemes. Your input is essential to the successful delivery of the wider project.
Upon contract award, you will work with the wider site delivery team to oversee the services packages on site and help manage the subcontractors through the installation process, dealing with all related technical queries all the way through to commissioning and handover. This is a real opportunity to work cradle to grave on schemes and see your ideas and plans come to life on site.
They are flexible on how and where you choose to work and operate a hybrid model where you can work in the office, hotdesk at the nearest project, work on live sites, or work from home if needed. They take a grown-up and pragmatic approach to how you work and look to find the best way for you to achieve your goals alongside a work/life balance.
The role would ideally suit someone from either a main contractor or specialist subcontractor with experience of both mechanical and electrical services. Experience of pre-construction and delivery would be an advantage. Ideally, you should be degree qualified, but they are also keen to look at individuals who have worked their way up off the tools.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing business that will value your opinion and listen to your expertise. In return, they offer you the chance to develop your career in whatever direction you want to take it, so get in touch for a more detailed conversation.
Candidates must be eligible to live and work in the UK.
