Job description

Senior MEP Quantity Surveyor / Commercial Manager
Mechanical Pipework Contractor (Turnover £15m)
£80,000 – £90,000 + Package

The Company:
A well-established, smaller-sized mechanical pipework contractor with an annual turnover of around £15m. The business operates across four main divisions that includes an in-house factory, fabrication, off site prebuilt pipework and services division that delivers projects across commercial, data centre and healthcare sectors up to £4m.

This is a business with a friendly, supportive culture where everyone knows each other by name. It offers a much better work-life balance and less pressure than Tier 1 contractors, strong relationships with clients and regular social events for the team.

The Role:
They are looking for an experienced Senior MEP Quantity Surveyor or Commercial Manager to lead the commercial department during a period of transition. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to step up, make their mark and play a key part in the business.

Key responsibilities:
  • Oversee a portfolio of around 10 live projects valued between £50k and £4m.
  • Take responsibility for all commercial elements including contractor negotiations, claims, variations and change orders.
  • Work closely with Project Managers and clients to ensure successful delivery.
  • Manage and support a small commercial team.
  • Split your time between the London office and project sites as needed.
  • Make senior-level decisions and help shape the future of the commercial function.

What they’re looking for:
  • An experienced MEP Quantity Surveyor ready to step into a senior or commercial management role.
  • Tier 1 contractor experience is welcome — this would suit someone looking to move away from the intense pressures of larger businesses into a more balanced, supportive environment.
  • Strong understanding of the full commercial process within a mechanical contracting context.
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills.

Package:
  • Salary between £80,000 - £90,000
  • Travel allowance
  • Pension
  • Private healthcare
  • 24 days annual leave
  • Discretionary bonus

If you’re looking for a role where you can genuinely have an impact, enjoy a better work-life balance and join a tight-knit team, this is well worth exploring.
