We''re working with a well established and highly regarded main contractor who are continuing to grow across the UK, delivering high spec projects across industrial and logistics, commercial, life sciences and data centres.

They''ve built a strong reputation for quality, technical delivery and a collaborative approach with clients, which has led to a significant amount of repeat business and a healthy pipeline of secured work.

This is a business that genuinely values pre construction. They invest heavily in getting projects right from the outset and see MEP as a critical part of that process, not an afterthought.

The Role

As a Pre Construction Manager (MEP), you''ll play a key role in the early stages of project development, working closely with clients, consultants and internal teams to shape and deliver technically strong, commercially viable schemes.

You''ll be involved from initial bid stages through to handover to delivery teams, ensuring that MEP design, cost and programme are aligned.

Key Responsibilities

• Leading MEP input through the pre construction phase
• Managing design coordination with consultants and subcontractors
• Supporting bids, tenders and technical submissions
• Reviewing and challenging design solutions to ensure buildability and efficiency
• Working closely with commercial teams on cost planning and procurement strategy
• Engaging with clients and stakeholders throughout the pre construction process

What They''re Looking For

• Strong MEP background within a main contractor or specialist subcontractor
• Experience in pre construction, design management or estimating
• Good technical understanding across mechanical and electrical packages
• Comfortable working in a client facing environment
• Ability to influence design, cost and programme at early stages
