We are seeking an experienced MEP Package Manager to coordinate the delivery of mechanical and electrical works across a major HS2 buildings programme.

The team is responsible for nine assets, comprising portal buildings, tunnel shafts and pumping-station buildings. Each structure incorporates complex MEP systems, including HV/LV distribution, ventilation, smoke control, communications, SCADA/BMS, fire systems, lighting, public health and lifts.

The role:

• Manage MEP packages through design, procurement, installation and handover
• Coordinate specialist subcontractors and supply-chain partners
• Review technical submissions, drawings and material proposals
• Manage interfaces between MEP, structural, civil and architectural packages
• Monitor subcontractor programmes and short-term construction activities
• Identify procurement, design, installation and sequencing risks
• Coordinate site access and dependencies between trades
• Drive quality and compliance across MEP installations
• Resolve technical queries, field changes and non-conformances
• Support testing, commissioning and systems integration
• Maintain communication with design, commercial and construction teams
• Assist with completion records and handover documentation

Candidate profile:

• Experience managing mechanical and electrical construction packages
• Background with a Tier 1 contractor, main builder or specialist MEP business
• Strong subcontractor-management and site-delivery capabilities
• Understanding of design coordination and procurement
• Experience managing multidisciplinary interfaces
• Knowledge of testing, commissioning and handover
• NEC experience would be beneficial

Direct HS2 or rail experience is not essential. This vacancy is particularly suitable for Package Managers from main build or building services who want to progress into major infrastructure, civils, railway construction and complex reinforced-concrete structures.
