Senior MEP Planner – M&E Building Services
London, near Liverpool Street Station | £80,000–£120,000 DOE + Benefits | Hybrid & Flexible
M&E building services experience is essential. We can’t consider planners from general construction, civils or main contractor backgrounds
This M&E contractor has delivered a handful of projects as tier one in a matter of years, and they’re showing no signs of slowing down. They specialise in data centres and commercial projects, and have just secured their first Data Centre project in Europe, the kind of leap most contractors spend a decade chasing and never quite manage.
With turnover past £60m and the order book only growing, they’re looking to strengthen their planning function with a senior MEP Planner who can help shape it as the business expands into Europe.
This isn’t a role where you sit in the background keeping a programme ticking over. They want someone who’s genuinely lived M&E, ideally someone who’s come up through the tools and understands how the work actually gets built, not just how it gets scheduled on paper. You’ll be working across live data centre and commercial projects in London, running MS Project or P6, with real influence over how the planning function develops. There’s also scope to mentor planners coming up through the team.
What they’re looking for:
- Senior-level planning experience within M&E building services (MEP, mechanical, electrical, public health, fire, controls etc.). This is essential
- Proven track record on live M&E projects, either with an M&E contractor or an M&E package on a larger build
- A background on the tools is a real bonus, though not essential
- Confident running MS Project or P6 without hand-holding
- Comfortable juggling multiple live projects and senior stakeholders
- London-based, or happy working across London sites
What’s on offer:
- Permanent: £80,000–£120,000 DOE + Benefits
- Hybrid and flexible working
- A front-row seat on major data centre and banking sector projects
- A genuine leadership path as the team scales up
- Support toward further qualifications, if you want them
This is a business that’s already proven it can compete at tier one level and is now pushing further. Getting involved now means shaping how the planning function grows, rather than stepping into something that’s already been decided.
