I'm recruiting a freelance Building Services Manager to support the preconstruction phase of a major film studio project in Borehamwood.

Working for the main contractor, you'll take responsibility for the Building Services design process and help prepare the M&E packages for construction.

Responsibilities

• Manage the M&E design process during preconstruction
• Coordinate information between the design team, consultants and M&E contractors
• Manage RFRs and ensure technical queries are closed out
• Review drawings, specifications and design information
• Help appoint and set up the M&E contractors ahead of starting on site
• Identify design, coordination and buildability issues
• Ensure the M&E packages are ready to move into construction

Experience required

• Strong knowledge of both mechanical and electrical services
• Main-contractor experience would be preferred
• Senior candidates from an M&E contractor will also be considered, provided they've overseen both mechanical and electrical packages
• Available to start at short notice
• The initial requirement is for two to three months, although there's a realistic possibility of an extension on this project or another scheme with the same contractor.
