Job Description:

Be the technical authority behind a landmark building.

We’re looking for a **Technical Services Manager** to become the dedicated engineering and MEP expert for a prestigious London office building. This is a hands-on technical leadership role at the heart of a high-quality commercial property — where your expertise will directly shape how the building performs, evolves and meets the demands of a modern, sustainability-focused occupier base.

You’ll be the engineering touchpoint that everyone turns to: the site team, contractors, consultants and clients. If you want a role where technical depth meets real influence — driving smart building technology, sustainability initiatives and major building works — this is it.

What you’ll be doing:

– Acting as the dedicated technical resource for the building, supporting the wider operational team

– Leading on building optimisation, smart building technology and IoT monitoring initiatives

– Driving MEES compliance and carbon/net-zero projects

– Leading technical input on fit-out, redevelopment and project works, including reviewing technical documentation

– Managing relationships with MEP/VT supply partners and consultants

– Overseeing compliance documentation, audit schedules and statutory certification

– Chairing contractor meetings, reviewing KPIs and closing out actions

– Reviewing contractor quotations and providing recommendations on instruction

– Leading long-term asset replacement planning and budget setting with site teams

– Managing and communicating significant MEP incidents through to resolution

– Providing ad hoc technical advice to clients on all M&E matters

– Occasional out-of-hours support for emergency and maintenance activities

What you’ll bring:

– Around 4 years’ experience in a similar technical services / building engineering role

– Strong understanding of building engineering, technical services and maintenance within high-quality commercial office property

– Solid grounding in Health & Safety, COSHH, L8, LOLER, PUWER, IPAF, PASMA, CDM and High Voltage distribution

– Knowledge of working at height, confined spaces, pressure systems and HVAC operation and maintenance

– Confident written and verbal communicator, comfortable engaging clients, occupiers, suppliers and stakeholders at all levels

– A relevant engineering qualification, and ideally a professional membership such as IWFM, NEBOSH or IOSH

– Strong organisational skills — spreadsheets, reports and clear, persuasive written communication

Why this role:

You’ll have genuine ownership of the technical agenda for a flagship building, real scope to introduce new technology and sustainability solutions, and the backing of a wider facilities management, building consultancy and sustainability network. It’s a role for someone who wants their technical judgement to matter and their impact to be visible.
