Building Services

Market overview:
With environmental issues and global warming at the forefront of the political agenda CIBSE and the Building Services Industry are currently highly focused on renewable energy and sustainability within the Built Environment. 560 organisations signed up in 2006 to the CIBSE “100 days of carbon clean up campaign”, during 2007 the campaign has continued to extend. M&E Sustainability is a joint initiative of the HVCA and the Electrical Contractors Association who have both recognised the growing demand for sustainable buildings. As a result of this increased focus on sustainability and with the continued strong demand from traditional sectors career options are opening up for those within the building services industry.

As an experienced Building Services candidate within East Anglia, London or the South you will find your skills in high demand. The region boasts a number of market leading Multi-Disciplinary Consultancies, M&E Contractors, Building Services Maintenance and Facilities Management Providers who are currently working on a range of high profile projects across the country.

During the second half of 2007 we have seen a sharp increase in the demand for experienced design staff, particularly Mechanical & Electrical Design Engineers, and Building Services CAD Technicians. We have also seen a growth in the number of contracting, FM and maintenance clients registering requirements for experienced staff right through from qualified Electricians to M&E Project Engineers and Managers on projects across East Anglia and the South.

Clients are willing to pay competitive salaries for the ‘right’ individual however you will need to demonstrate your experience clearly and show your commitment to continuous development. Professional development is key to many clients’ aims with a majority of current vacancies arising due to expansion they seek candidates to grow with the company. For this reason and because of the current shortage in the market of skilled and experienced professionals both small and large clients are taking on undergraduates/graduates and training in-house, also retraining and promoting senior staff.

We offer a completely confidential service, tailored to your job search needs, getting your details considered by key decision makers, often for positions that haven’t even been advertised.
