Building Services, Facilities Management & Maintenance

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 shortages for building services professionals continue to grow.

As a Client looking to recruit Building Services, Facilities Management or Maintenance staff within East Anglia, London or the South our experience suggests that an increased salary alone is not enough to attract recently quality candidates considering a career move. Although average salaries have increased in recent years, motivation for a career move is just as likely to come from the type of project on offer. The career promotion prospects, flexible working conditions and overall benefits package that you can offer to potential employees will also play a major factor in your success at recruiting and retaining staff. In the current market good quality candidates will still end up with a number of interviews and potential offers to consider. Having the flexibility to consider strong candidates that could bring something to your organisation rather than searching for an exact match to your job specifications will bring your company the best results.
