Senior Technical Services Manager

9 Days Old

Senior Technical Services Manager - Construction Projects Permanent For a contractor who loves D&B, cut & carve, and high end fit-outs
If you’re a TSM who has spent years muttering “that physically does not fit” while designers insist it does… If you’ve ever seen a CDP package that made you stare into the middle distance… If your superpower is spotting a clash from 30 paces and fixing it before anyone else even notices…
Congratulations. You’re exactly who this main contractor is waiting for.
The role: •    This isn’t a team management scenario. No supervising juniors. No babysitting. This is an autonomous, senior role where you report directly to the Directors and are trusted — genuinely — to get on with it. •    Responsible for 2 or 3 schemes at a time (£5m – c£20m) •    Design & Build | Cut & carve refurbs | New builds with basements | CAT A/B fit-Outs, all the usual technical carnage •    JCT with CDP — the TSM obstacle course. •    You’ll be the technical spine of the project, dipping into pre-con, design, delivery, commissioning, and all the moments where someone whispers, “We should probably ask the TSM…”
Your day might involve: •    Re-routing ductwork that was drawn by someone who has never seen a ceiling void •    Explaining (again) why the riser can’t go there •    Turning MEP mayhem into coordinated calm •    Saving the programme by pointing out a catastrophic clash others thought was “fine” •    Keeping subbies honest on cost and scope (your sixth sense for silly prices is unmatched) •    Being the project’s technical adult — because someone has to be
Who you are: •    A seasoned TSM with real D&B battle scars •    Contract-aware, commercially switched-on, and allergic to BS •    They want someone long-term, not someone counting down to their campervan tour •    Calm, solutions-focused, and able to stop a design meeting from going off the rails •    Someone who laughs when they cry — the true mark of a Technical Services professional
What you get: •    A more than decent salary, with a package that includes proper grown-up benefits (25 days annual leave, travel paid, private pension contribution and healthcare) •    A company where people stay 10–15 years •    Directors who actually listen to technical people (wild, I know) •    Freedom, autonomy, and trust — no micro-management, no nonsense
This role could also be referred to at other businesses as Technical Services Manager, Senior Technical Services Manager, Technical Delivery Manager, MEP Lead, or Design & Build Technical Manager.
If you’ve ever stood in a riser thinking, “I’m the only one here who knows what’s going on,” then this role will feel suspiciously like home.
