Job description
Project Manager
Heathrow
£60,000 - £90,000 + Car Allowance + Benefits
Are you a Project Manager with an M&E background looking to lead impactful projects at the UK's busiest airport?
Do you thrive in a hands-on, solutions-focused role working closely with engineers, clients, and stakeholders?
A well-established and growing building services provider near Heathrow is expanding its successful operations. Due to continued growth and contract wins, they are now looking for an experienced Project Manager to lead electrical and mechanical projects from initial assessment to full delivery. Based at Heathrow Airport, you'll work in a close-knit team of engineers, supervisors, and administrators - all focused on delivering high-quality, compliant work in a collaborative, team-first environment.
As Project Manager, you'll be responsible for evaluating jobs, managing quotes, leading your engineering team, and ensuring timely, on-budget project delivery. The role involves both office and on-site work (5 days a week, occasional WFH), managing multiple contracts simultaneously and liaising directly with clients. You'll work closely with the admin team, procurement, and site staff, and be actively involved in training, resourcing, and planning. This is a full end-to-end project management position within a dynamic airport environment.
The ideal candidate will come from a building services background with mechanical and/or electrical systems knowledge - particularly in reactive maintenance, refurbishments, clean water systems, pumps, fans, valves, and controls. Experience working at Heathrow or another airport environment is highly desirable, but not essential. A strong leader who can assess technical problems, find practical solutions, and communicate clearly across teams will excel here.
The Role
- Lead M&E projects at Heathrow
- Oversee budgets, suppliers, and H&S
- Assess jobs and manage quotes
- Coordinate engineers and admin staff
- Deliver projects from scope to handover
The Person
- M&E or building services background
- Strong problem-solving and planning skills
- Comfortable in client-facing situations
- Airport or secure-site experience ideal
- Confident leading small technical teams
