MEP Director
đź“Ť Bristol
We’re supporting a rapidly growing, multi-disciplinary property and construction consultancy in Bristol as they look to appoint an MEP Director to lead and expand their Building Services offering.
The business operates across the full development lifecycle - from early concept through to delivery - combining engineering, project management, cost consultancy and wider construction services into a fully integrated offering. Their model is highly collaborative, commercially driven, and focused on delivering efficient, coordinated solutions for developer-led projects.
With multiple UK offices including Bristol, Exeter, Plymouth, Cardiff and Birmingham, the business continues to expand its regional presence and capability across key development hubs.

Provide technical leadership and ensure consistent quality, coordination, and commercial awareness
