Job Description

A fantastic opportunity has arisen with a well-established M&E Contractor based in Warwick who are recruiting for a Mechanical Maintenance and Aftercare Manager to join their company.

As a business, this company works on multimillion-pound contracts in the West Midlands for top-tier Main Contractors. They are now looking for a Mechanical Maintenance and Aftercare Manager to support the Major Projects team post contract and manage and grow the Small Works and Maintenance division, working alongside their existing Electrical Small Works Manager.

This is a relatively new role for the business, and you will also manage any defect repairs following project completion and manage the current planned maintenance contracts, whilst continuing to promote and secure further contracts with new and existing clients.

Duties and Responsibilities

• Planning of resources, including materials, labour, and sub-contractors. Creating maintenance schedules and organising labour accordingly to the programme.
• Managing mechanical defects to completion.
• Conducting site inspections and identifying areas requiring maintenance works whilst ensuring quality and compliance of work is achieved.
• Supervising maintenance staff and ensuring they follow safe work practices.
• Producing costs for follow-on/extra works and/or remedial works as necessary.
• Scheduling minor on-site repairs following instructions from Clients.
• Scheduling contractors for major repairs as instructed by Clients.

• Developing maintenance budgets and discussing with Clients for contracts.
• Controlling and monitoring inventory.
• Co-ordinating work performed by specialist sub-contractors.
• Raising purchase orders and invoices, logging defects, and maintaining administration procedures.
• Growing this business area to include new clients and maintaining current relationships.

There will also be the requirement to manage some Small Works projects on the mechanical side in conjunction with our existing electrical maintenance/SW department, which would be carried out by both direct and sub-contract labour. This will involve potentially visiting sites to ascertain the scope of works, referring to drawings, producing costs, and ultimately project managing the works if successful.

Experience/Requirements

For this role, you will need to have at least 5 years of relevant construction mechanical industry experience either in an install or maintenance environment and have knowledge of building up quotations/estimating from start to final invoice and be able to read drawings accordingly. You will have a good customer focus, be organised in your workload, and able to manage staff and different situations as they arise.

You should hold relevant industry-recognised qualifications i.e., HVAC and qualifications/served time as an Apprentice. Excellent verbal and written communication skills are required, along with a confident communication style when meeting people at all different levels.
