M&E Manager | Prime Residential New Build – North London – Permanent – Site-based

• Lost arguments to marble
• Reopened ceilings that were “definitely finished”
• Commissioned systems three times because someone “value-engineered” the wrong thing
• Been told “it worked in the show flat”

If that's you, keep reading.

• Multi-million-pound prime resi scheme
• 30+ high-end apartments across four blocks
• £4-5m per unit (every light, grille and socket will be inspected)
• Pool, spa, plant rooms, risers, terraces - nothing forgiving
• Programme running through to Q1 2027

• Full ownership of the M&E package on site
• Managing M&E subcontractors who swear it's “by others”
• Stopping joinery boxing in access you warned everyone about
• Coordinating plant, risers, ceilings and finishes before they collide
• Chairing M&E meetings where optimism meets reality
• Driving QA, inspections, commissioning and handover - properly
• Issuing close-up notices before something expensive disappears forever
• Reporting directly to the Project Director (no Chinese whispers)

• Spots problems before stone, plaster or bespoke joinery hides them
• Knows commissioning isn't a box‑tick exercise
• Can read drawings, walk the job, and call nonsense early
• Is calm under pressure and stubborn about quality
• Has delivered high‑end residential or complex new‑build M&E before
• Procore experience is useful (will be taught) - scars are essential.

• £100m + turnover, well-established
• Delivers complex, high-end schemes across London & the Home Counties
• No gimmicks, no drama, no panic culture
• Proper leadership, properly run sites
