London | Tier 1 Main Contractor | 8–12 Month Duration | CIS Day Rate

We're working with a Tier 1 main contractor to find an experienced Senior M&E Manager to lead the MEP delivery on a major, high-profile London hotel transformation.

The scheme involves the comprehensive refurbishment and repositioning of a landmark hotel, including more than 900 guestrooms, extensive front-of-house and guest amenity spaces, new spa, pool and gym facilities, rooftop hospitality space, structural alterations, façade upgrades, new lifts, and a complete replacement of the building’s mechanical and electrical infrastructure. It is a complex, quality-led project combining refurbishment, fit-out, and major services replacement within a live urban environment.

Now around halfway through the programme, this is a key delivery role for an individual who can take ownership of the MEP package through the next critical stages, ensuring the highest standards of installation, quality, coordination, and subcontractor performance.

The role:

• Lead the day-to-day MEP delivery across a complex large-scale refurbishment project.
• Drive quality control across mechanical, electrical, and public-health installations, ensuring works meet programme, specification, and commissioning requirements.
• Manage and challenge MEP subcontractors, maintaining strong control of progress, resourcing, workmanship, and close-out.
• Coordinate closely with the Project Director, construction, design, commercial, and client teams.
• Review installation sequencing, technical submissions, RFIs, inspections, testing, and commissioning activities.
• Identify and resolve technical, coordination, and programme risks before they affect delivery.
• Ensure robust QA processes, snagging, handover documentation, and commissioning plans are in place and actively managed.
• Provide clear reporting on progress, risks, quality, and subcontractor performance.
