I am currently working with a well-established main contractor who is looking to appoint an experienced M&E Manager for a major new build development. The project is a large mixed-use scheme comprising 400+ purpose-built student accommodation units alongside commercial space, with the project now live on site.

- Coordinate M&E subcontractors and ensure works are progressing in line with programme
- Review drawings, technical information, and specifications
- Manage interfaces between M&E, structural, and architectural packages

- Attend subcontractor and project coordination meetings
- Manage testing, commissioning, snagging, and close-out
- Work closely with the Project Manager and wider construction team to identify and resolve technical issues
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Candidate
Ideally, you will have previous experience working as an M&E Manager, Building Services Manager, or Technical Services Manager with a main contractor or experience on larger projects with a large subcontractor. Experience delivering large residential, student accommodation, hotel, or similar high-density projects would be particularly relevant. You will need to be comfortable taking ownership of the M&E packages on site and driving subcontractors to programme.
