Contracts Manager (Mechanical Bias)

The Contracts department plays a central role in turning design into successful project delivery. Working closely with commercial, design, procurement, and site teams, the department leads projects from mobilisation through to completion and handover. It is a fast-paced, collaborative environment where strong planning, leadership, and problem-solving skills are valued, and where the right person can make a visible impact on project success, client relationships, and the continued growth of the business.

We are seeking a proactive, commercially aware, and mechanically minded Contracts Manager to lead the delivery of decarbonisation and building upgrade projects across Ireland. This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced project delivery professional who wants to take ownership of a diverse portfolio of mechanical-led works, develop strong client relationships, and contribute to meaningful low-carbon projects with a growing and ambitious business.

The successful candidate will work closely with our commercial project management team and in-house M&E design team to deliver a range of low-carbon and energy efficiency projects, including heating system upgrades, heat pump installations, plantroom and energy centre works, HVAC modifications, controls and BMS-related works, and wider building fabric improvement projects. With projects typically delivered in live commercial and public sector environments, this role offers real variety, autonomy, and the chance to work across the full project lifecycle from planning and coordination through to commissioning, handover, and client sign-off.
