Permanent | £70,000 - £80,000 + Package

3D Personnel are working with a growing multi-disciplined M&E contractor who are looking to appoint an experienced Regional Maintenance Manager to establish, develop and lead a new Maintenance and Facilities Management division.

This is a senior role offering the opportunity to build a division from the ground up, supported by an established M&E business and a leading construction contractor.

The successful candidate will take responsibility for developing the maintenance offering, securing new contracts, building a delivery team and ensuring the successful delivery of planned and reactive maintenance services across a growing client base.

This role would suit an experienced Maintenance, FM or Building Services professional who combines strong operational knowledge with a commercial mindset and an established network within the industry.

The Role

As Regional Maintenance Manager, you will be responsible for the development and day-to-day leadership of the Maintenance division, including:

Establishing and growing a regional M&E maintenance and FM operation

Developing the division's service offering across planned, preventative and reactive maintenance

Generating new business and developing opportunities through your existing client and industry network

Working closely with existing clients across the wider construction and M&E business to identify maintenance opportunities

Securing new maintenance contracts, frameworks and service agreements

Managing projects and maintenance contracts from mobilisation through to delivery

Building and managing an operational team as the division grows

Recruiting engineers, supervisors, contract managers and support staff where required

Developing supply chain and subcontractor relationships

Preparing tenders, proposals, budgets and commercial submissions

Supporting pricing, contract negotiations and client presentations

Ensuring contracts are delivered safely, commercially and to a high standard

Maintaining strong client relationships and identifying opportunities for repeat and additional business

Working alongside the wider M&E and construction teams to provide a complete Design, Build and Maintain offering

The Person

We are interested in speaking with experienced professionals from an M&E maintenance, Facilities Management, Building Services or technical services background.

You will ideally have:

Strong experience within M&E maintenance, FM or Building Services

Experience managing maintenance contracts, service agreements or FM operations

A strong understanding of planned preventative and reactive maintenance

Previous experience managing engineers, supervisors or contract teams

Commercial awareness and experience managing budgets, tenders and contract performance

Experience developing new client relationships and generating business

An established network within the M&E, FM, property or construction sectors

The ability and ambition to build and lead a new division

Strong client-facing and communication skills

A hands-on approach with the ability to operate strategically and operationally

Previous experience establishing or growing a maintenance division, regional business or service department would be particularly attractive.

The Opportunity

This is not simply a contract management position.

You will be given the opportunity to establish and shape a new division within an ambitious, well-backed contractor, developing the team, client base, systems and overall strategy.

The wider business operates across the M&E and construction sectors, creating significant opportunities to provide clients with an integrated Design, Build and Maintain service.

For somebody looking for greater responsibility, autonomy and the opportunity to build a business unit around their own expertise and network, this represents an excellent long-term opportunity
