Freelance Senior MEP Planner – Data Centres – London (Outside IR35)
I’m currently looking for a heavy-hitting Senior Planning Engineer (MEP) to join a major Data Centre build in London.
You’ll be the leading the programme, taking ownership of the MEP fit-out schedule. This isn’t just a \"reporting\" role. We need someone who actually understands the sequence of a DC build—from plant movement and high-voltage subs to the final IST/Commissioning phases.
What you’ll be doing:
* Managing the Baseline and high-level project milestones in Primavera P6.
* Walking the site to verify progress (not just taking the site team's word for it).
* Producing S-curves and progress reports that actually make sense to the stakeholders.
* Identifying risks early and running \"what-if\" scenarios to keep things on track.
* Working closely with the Commercial team on delay analysis and records.
What you need:
* Data Centre Experience
* Background in MEP
* You should be able to navigate complex schedules in P6.
* Good knowledge of NEC/JCT (compensation events, etc.).
