M&E Project Director

I am now seeking an experienced MEP Project Director to join a leading M&E Contractor, taking a key leadership role in the delivery of a major Industrial new build project within the South West.

This is an excellent opportunity for an established M&E professional with a strong portfolio of successfully delivered projects and a proven track record across both operational delivery and commercial management. You will play a pivotal role in ensuring projects are delivered safely, efficiently and commercially, while building strong relationships with clients and leading project teams to achieve demanding delivery targets.

As M&E Project Director, you will take overall responsibility for leading project delivery, acting as the key point of contact for the client and providing strategic direction to the wider project team. You will work closely with internal stakeholders and external partners to drive progress, resolve challenges and maintain control of programme, quality and commercial performance.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Leading the delivery of large scale M&E packages on major industrial new build projects
• Building and maintaining strong working relationships with the client, consultants and key Project Management
• Taking ownership of project performance, ensuring delivery milestones and deadlines are achieved.
• Managing, motivating and developing the project team, providing clear leadership and direction.
• Leading client meetings, progress reviews and project planning discussions.

Acting as the primary escalation point for project issues, driving effective solutions and timely decision making.

• Maintaining oversight of project budgets, commercial performance, cost control and contractual obligations.
• Working collaboratively with operational and commercial teams to manage risk, maximise performance and protect project margins.
• Ensuring high standards of health and safety, quality and compliance throughout project delivery.
• Supporting the successful mobilisation and delivery of future projects within the region.

The role requires a commercially astute and operationally focused M&E leader who can demonstrate a strong track record of delivering complex, large scale projects within a main M&E contracting environment.

The ideal individual for this role will have …

• Significant experience in a senior project leadership role within the M&E contracting sector
• A proven portfolio of successfully delivered large scale Industrial or Manufacturing new build projects.
• The ability to lead large multidisciplinary project teams and drive accountability at all levels
• Experience within client facing projects, with the confidence to lead meetings, manage expectations and resolve challenging project issues
• A strong understanding of project programmes, financial performance, contractual obligations and delivery risk.
• The ability to make informed decisions under pressure while maintaining focus on programme deadlines and project outcomes

The Opportunity

This is more than a role delivering a single project. You will be joining an established M&E Contractor with a significant pipeline of further projects planned across the South West, offering the opportunity to build long-term relationships, establish yourself within the region and take a leading role in future project delivery.

In return, the successful individual will receive a competitive salary and benefits package, alongside the opportunity to play a key part in the continued growth and success of the business
