Are you an experienced Building Services Engineer looking for stability, a predictable work-life balance, and no endless commuting across London?

We are looking for a sharp, multi-skilled engineer to take ownership of a prestigious static site in Central London. Operating standard day shifts (Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm), you’ll be the go-to technical mind on-site, ensuring all mechanical, electrical, and general building systems run smoothly.

Because this is a single static site, you’ll work closely with the tenant and building management teams. We need someone who is as skilled with client communication as they are with a multimeter.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Carrying out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive repairs across mechanical, electrical, and fabric systems.
  • Leading on electrical fault finding, isolation, small works, and routine testing safely and efficiently.
  • Acting as the face of the engineering team—building strong, professional relationships with building managers, tenant representatives, and external contractors.
  • Escorting, overseeing, and approving work done by specialist sub-contractors on-site.
  • Ensuring all work complies with health and safety regulations, statutory standards, and site logbooks.

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven track record in commercial building services maintenance (M&E).
  • NVQ Level 3 in Electrical Installation (or equivalent) and 18th Edition BS7671 are highly desirable.
  • Comfortable turning your hand to basic plumbing, HVAC, and general building maintenance alongside core electrical tasks.
  • Excellent communication skills, a professional attitude, and the confidence to discuss technical issues directly with stakeholders.
  • Ideally based within a reasonable commute to Central London.

Why Apply?

  • No Daily London Hustle: One fixed location—no van, no traffic jams between jobs.
  • Great Hours: Standard 40-hour week, Monday to Friday (08:00–17:00).
  • Competitive Package & overtime potential.
