Company Description

BJF Group is a leading multi-discipline Main Contractor based across the UK, specialising in delivering high-quality construction projects across various sectors - priding ourselves on our reputation for excellence and attention to detail.

Across the public and private sectors, our teams deliver with care, consistency and accountability. We bring specialist knowledge, a flexible mindset, and a commitment to doing things properly, even in the most complex or sensitive environments.

As we continue to grow, we are seeking a proactive and driven Mechanical Project Manager to join our M&E division to deliver projects to completion - ensuring they are on time, on budget and to the satisfaction of all parties, exceeding expectations wherever possible.

Position

As a Mechanical Project Manager at BJF Group, you will provide leadership across the full project lifecycle - identifying and specifying project opportunities from the outset through to delivering contractual commitments on secured projects.

Working closely with the wider M&E team, the Mechanical Project Manager will also ensure that BJF Group site procedures and processes are in place and operating effectively, with works being delivered to a high level of safety as well as to the required quality standards and specification.

Experience of planning and co-ordinating the delivery of assigned works through the relevant engineering team and supply chain will be key, with the project timelines submitted as part of the bid process needing to be satisfied on time and within budget, all whilst maintaining a focus on organically growing revenue to increase turnover and profitability.

This role will be best suited to an individual with a proven Mechanical background, as well as strong stakeholder management to build effective relationships with sub-contractors and the wider BJF support functions, ensuring cost-effective and quality solutions that will maximise opportunities towards favourable business outcomes.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
