Lead on sustainability initiatives and energy efficiency projects across the buildings.
Support mobilisation of new plant or systems and contribute to long-term asset planning and lifecycle works.
Build strong working relationships with occupiers, consultants, and internal teams, acting as a trusted technical advisor.
Monitor performance against SLAs and KPIs, ensuring consistent delivery of high service standards.
Ensure robust H&S practices are in place, including risk assessments, audits, and contractor management.
What We're Looking For:
Proven experience in a similar Technical Services Manager or Engineering Manager role within a commercial property environment.
Strong understanding of building services, ideally with an electrical or mechanical bias.
Exceptional stakeholder management skills, with a client-focused approach.
Relevant technical qualifications (e.g., HNC/HND, Degree, or equivalent in Engineering or Building Services).
IOSH/NEBOSH and knowledge of statutory compliance in a property setting.
Experience working across multi-building estates or complex sites is highly desirable.
This is a standout opportunity to join a respected property brand and play a key role in the management of one of London's most impressive commercial estates.
