We're working with one of the UK's most respected property and infrastructure organisations, renowned for creating innovative, sustainable commercial environments where businesses thrive. With an ambitious long-term growth strategy and significant investment planned over the coming years, this is an exciting opportunity to join a forward-thinking business at the forefront of decarbonisation, smart building technology and modern asset management.

This organisation has built a reputation for investing in both its people and its properties, offering genuine career progression, exposure to high-value projects, and the chance to influence sustainability across a diverse portfolio.

The Role

As an M&E Project Manager, you'll take ownership of a varied portfolio of mechanical and electrical projects ranging from approximately £25,000 to over £1 million, managing schemes from initial concept through to completion.

Working closely with internal stakeholders, consultants and contractors, you'll provide technical leadership while helping drive ambitious Net Zero Carbon and Smart Building initiatives across a high-quality commercial property portfolio.

This is a predominantly office-based role in Manchester city centre, with travel to sites across the portfolio (typically around once per week as required).

• Work closely with sustainability and energy teams to identify opportunities for operational improvements.
• Produce technical reports and recommendations to support strategic investment decisions.
• Ensure accurate project documentation, commissioning records and asset information are maintained.
