Job Description

TECHNICAL SERVICES MANAGER

Rendall & Rittner • £Competitive • Hybrid/Home Based

ROLE OVERVIEW

We are looking for a Technical Services Manager to take ownership of technical service delivery across a growing residential portfolio.

This is a high-impact role where you will lead on mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) strategy, ensuring developments are mobilised effectively, risks are managed early, and assets perform as intended long term.

You’ll work closely with New Business, Mobilisation and Property Management teams, supporting both new instructions and existing developments. This role combines technical expertise with commercial awareness, giving you real influence over service delivery, asset performance and client outcomes.

ROLE EXPECTATIONS

This is a visible and business-critical role that requires strong technical judgement, organisation and the confidence to influence decisions.

You will be expected to take ownership of technical standards across multiple developments, ensuring buildings are safe, compliant and operationally efficient from day one.

You’ll need to balance service quality, risk management and cost control, while supporting both mobilisation and live operations.

You will be relied upon as the technical expert—identifying issues early, advising on solutions and improving long-term performance rather than reacting to problems.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

You’ll be successful in this role if:

New developments are mobilised with clear, effective servicing strategies in place

Buildings operate safely, efficiently and in line with compliance requirements

Property Managers feel supported and confident in technical decision-making

Lifecycle and CAPEX planning is clear, accurate and adds value to clients

Technical risks are identified early and managed proactively

You contribute to winning new business through credible technical input

HOW YOU’LL SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME

Most weeks, you’ll be:

Reviewing new instructions and auditing MEP servicing requirements

Supporting mobilisation of new developments to ensure smooth handover

Providing technical advice and support to Property Managers

Producing plant lifecycle and CAPEX reports

Supporting tender submissions and new business opportunities

Overseeing technical aspects of projects across existing developments

Working with internal teams including Health & Safety, Procurement and specialist functions

You’ll work in a hybrid way, with flexibility to manage your time across home working, office collaboration and site visits where required.

WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR

This role suits someone who:

Has strong technical knowledge of MEP systems within residential or similar environments

Is confident operating as a subject matter expert and advising others

Can balance technical detail with commercial awareness

Is comfortable working across both new business and operational delivery

Takes ownership, solves problems early and improves how things are done

EXPERIENCE THAT HELPS

Degree or HND in Mechanical, Electrical or related Engineering

Experience in a technical services, engineering or property environment

Experience supporting mobilisations, developments or complex assets

Knowledge of SFG20, CIBSE Guide M or similar frameworks

Project or lifecycle planning experience

Experience working with or alongside property management teams

WHAT WE OFFER

Competitive salary, aligned to experience

Discretionary bonus

Home-based working with portfolio travel

25 days holiday plus bank holidays

Private medical insurance, life assurance and enhanced family leave

Fully funded training and professional development

Paid sabbaticals as a loyalty reward

Pension scheme and employee assistance programme

Discounts across travel, retail, fitness and entertainment
