Senior Design Manager in Croydon

Senior Design Manager – Mechanical | to £100,000 + travel | South London | M&E | Perm

This is a senior appointment for an experienced Mechanical Design Manager who knows how to lead a design function rather than simply manage their own package.

We are working with an established M&E contractor looking to appoint a Senior Design Manager to take responsibility for their mechanical design team.

You will be leading the team, overseeing the mechanical design process across multiple projects and making sure what is being designed is technically sound, commercially sensible and, importantly, buildable.

It needs somebody with a strong mechanical building services background who understands the realities of delivering M&E projects. You will be comfortable challenging designs, coordinating with project and commercial teams, dealing with consultants and clients, and providing direction when decisions need to be made.

There is a genuine leadership element to this one. They aren’t looking for somebody to sit behind a screen checking drawings all day. They want someone who can develop the team, improve the way design is managed across the business and become the senior mechanical design voice internally.

The important bits:

• Senior Design Manager / experienced Design Manager level
• Mechanical building services background is essential
• Experience working within an M&E contractor environment strongly preferred
• Proven experience leading or mentoring a design team
• Strong technical knowledge combined with a practical understanding of installation and delivery
• South London
• Salary up to £100,000 + travel
