Most Mechanical Project Manager roles sound the same on LinkedIn.

“Manage stakeholders.”
“Drive delivery.”
“Ensure project success.”

But on a real construction project it usually comes down to something much simpler:

Can you actually run the job?

I’m working with a London M&E contractor looking for a Mechanical PM to deliver projects typically ranging from £20k - £750k.

The work is proper building services delivery in live buildings:
HVAC, ventilation, AC, pipework, BMS, plant upgrades and decarbonisation works across commercial, heritage and public-sector estates.

A typical PM here might be running 4–5 projects at once, depending on complexity.

It’s not a corporate environment where ten other people do the planning, procurement and coordination for you.

This is a contractor environment where the PM actually:

• Works the programme (Asta ideal)
• Reviews drawings and raises RFIs
• Coordinates subcontractors
• Manages variations
• Drives commissioning and handover

The company turns over around £5–6m, has a relaxed culture, but expects PMs to take ownership and be accountable for their projects.

If you’re mechanical bias, from an M&E subcontractor background, and enjoy actually delivering projects - not just reporting on them - it’s well worth a conversation.
