  • Review drawings, specifications, BOQs, shop drawings, technical submissions, method statements and material approvals; promptly resolve technical conflicts and constructability issues.
  • Manage MEP subcontractors, suppliers, engineers and supervisors to achieve required productivity and project milestones.
  • Monitor MEP budgets, committed and actual costs, forecasts and overall commercial performance; review quotations and participate in technical and commercial negotiations.
  • Identify and manage variations, additional works, claims and contractual and commercial risks, ensuring timely documentation and cost recovery.
  • Coordinate the procurement of long-lead equipment and monitor progress against the programme, implementing corrective or recovery actions where required.
  • Lead testing and commissioning, statutory approvals, preparation of O&M manuals and as-built drawings, and final handover.
  • Ensure compliance with relevant standards, QA/QC and HSE requirements, and represent the MEP function at client, consultant, technical and commercial meetings.
  • Provide regular progress, technical, commercial and risk updates to the Project Manager, and lead the MEP team effectively.

Candidate Profile:

  • Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Building Services Engineering or a related engineering discipline from a recognised university.
  • Chartered Engineer status will be an added advantage.
  • Preferably 12–15 years of relevant MEP/construction experience, including at least five years in a senior MEP management role.
  • Proven experience managing multidisciplinary MEP works on large-scale building, industrial or infrastructure projects, preferably valued at LKR 1 billion or above.
  • Strong practical experience in MVAC, electrical, fire protection/detection and compressed air systems.
  • Demonstrated experience in technical and commercial management, including budgeting, procurement, subcontract administration, variations, claims, cost control and final accounts.
  • Experience managing projects outside Colombo and independently leading site-based teams will be an advantage.
  • Strong technical and commercial decision-making, leadership, coordination, negotiation and problem-solving skills.
  • Strong contractual and cost-management awareness, with the ability to take ownership of MEP delivery under demanding project timelines.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English, with confidence in dealing with the Project Manager, clients, consultants, subcontractors, suppliers and internal management.
  • A technically strong, commercially aware and results-oriented MEP professional capable of independently managing the complete MEP package of a major project through successful commissioning and handover.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
