Our client has built an exceptional reputation for delivering some of the South West's most complex and high-profile construction projects across sectors including commercial, healthcare, education, defence, industrial and mission-critical environments. This is an outstanding opportunity for an electrically or mechanically biased MEP professional looking to play a pivotal role in the successful delivery of large-scale projects from pre-construction through to completion.
As MEP Design Manager, you'll be responsible for leading the coordination and delivery of all mechanical, electrical and public health design elements across multiple major construction projects. Working closely with clients, consultants, specialist subcontractors and operational teams, you'll ensure MEP designs are technically robust, fully coordinated, commercially viable and aligned with programme requirements.

This is a fantastic opportunity to work on landmark projects where MEP design plays a critical role in successful project delivery.
You'll have a strong background in building services design or technical management, with experience working for a main contractor, specialist MEP contractor or consultancy on major construction projects. You'll be confident managing multidisciplinary design teams, coordinating technical information and resolving complex design challenges while maintaining programme and commercial objectives.
Whether your background is predominantly electrical or mechanical, you'll possess excellent communication skills, strong commercial awareness and a collaborative approach to project delivery. Experience working on large-scale commercial, healthcare, defence, industrial or mission-critical developments would be highly advantageous.

- Car allowance
- Annual bonus
- Private healthcare
- Competitive pension scheme
- 25 days annual leave plus Bank Holidays
- Ongoing professional development and chartership support
- Opportunity to work on some of the South West's largest and most technically challenging construction projects
