Electrical Lead

At CBRE, we do not just manage buildings we power the infrastructure that keeps businesses moving. We are looking for a sharp, hands‑on Technical Services Team Leader (Electrical) who bridges the gap between elite engineering and inspiring leadership. If you are an experienced Electrical Team Lead with a passion for mentoring teams, optimising complex M&E systems, and maintaining show site standards, this is your next definitive career move on one of our most exciting technology accounts in the heart of London.

• Manage, mentor, and develop a dedicated team of shift engineers. You will handle everything from performance reviews and training plans to scheduling and leave management.
• Act as the site’s Authorised Person for Electrical and Mechanical systems. You will safely execute HV/LV switching operations and mechanical installations within strict Change Control processes.
• Own the relationships with Specialist Subcontractors. You will review RAMS, inspect their work for flawless quality, and sign off on worksheets.
• Drive SLA compliance for all planned and reactive maintenance. You will keep our critical spares stocked, write concise technical reports, and optimise the building's energy efficiency.
• Cultivate a safety‑first culture. You will lead regular Toolbox Talks, drive Near Miss reporting, and conduct rigorous monthly and annual compliance audits.

• A strong background in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering, with valid certifications and experience acting as an Authorised Person (AP) for HV/LV switching.
• Proven experience managing engineering teams, ideally within a high‑availability or critical infrastructure environment, such as data centres, corporate HQs, or banking.
• A proactive problem‑solver who takes extreme ownership of plant rooms, anticipates operational risks before they happen, and thrives under SLA‑driven environments.
• Exceptional communication skills to liaise smoothly between your shift team, the Helpdesk team, CBRE management, and the client.

• Access to CBRE’s world‑class training programs, certifications, and global network of opportunities.
• Work in an environment that prioritises safety, continuous improvement, and rewarding top talent.
• Comprehensive salary, benefits, and pension scheme.
