The Opportunity

* Contribute strategically to the continued growth of the division
The Package
* Flights covered to and from Europe
* Own apartment provided (not shared accommodation)
* Per diem allowance for time abroad (Daily living allowance)
* Bonus structure
* Long-term progression into a key divisional leadership role
The Business
A well known MEP contractor with a strong and diverse portfolio across:
* European Data Centres
* Commercial, Residential, Life Sciences and Education schemes
* Multiple specialist service lines and revenue streams
They are known for delivering complex projects while maintaining a pragmatic, people-first approach internally — something that is reflected in the flexibility offered within this role.
