> Designer Group · London, United Kingdom (Hybrid) · Full-time · Posted 2026-05-19

**Workplace:** hybrid

**Department:** Building Services

## Description

**Quality Manager (M&E)**

📍 London (with UK project travel) | Full-time | Designer Group

**The Role**

We’re hiring a UK Quality Manager (M&E) to strengthen quality across our UK operations.

This is a hands-on, site-facing role focused on ensuring right-first-time delivery across mechanical and electrical packages: from installation through to commissioning and handover.

You’ll work across multiple projects, supporting teams on site, driving standards, and resolving quality issues before they impact programme or client delivery.

**What You’ll Be Doing**

You’ll take ownership of quality across M&E works, including:

-   Implementing project quality plans, ITPs and inspection regimes
-   Ensuring installations meet specifications, drawings and standards
-   Leading audits, inspections and quality reviews across sites
-   Managing NCRs, defects and corrective actions
-   Supporting testing, commissioning and handover readiness
-   Verifying materials, plant and equipment before installation
-   Monitoring subcontractor and supplier quality performance
-   Tracking quality KPIs and reporting to project and senior teams
-   Driving continuous improvement and right-first-time delivery

You’ll play a key role in protecting programme, reducing rework and ensuring a high standard of delivery across every project.

## Requirements

**What We’re Looking For**

We’re looking for someone who understands how M&E projects are delivered and knows where quality issues typically arise.

-   Experience in M&E construction (building services, data centres, energy or industrial)
-   Strong understanding of QA/QC processes and inspection systems
-   Ability to read drawings, specs and commissioning requirements
-   Experience managing defects, NCRs and root cause analysis
-   Comfortable working across multiple live sites
-   Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

You may come from a mechanical, electrical or building services background — what matters is your ability to manage quality across both disciplines.

**Qualifications**

-   Degree in Mechanical, Electrical or Building Services Engineering (preferred)
-   Or strong trade/technical background with QA/QC experience
-   Knowledge of ISO 9001 (essential)
-   Membership of CIBSE, IET, Engineers Ireland or CQI (advantageous)

## Benefits

**Why Join Designer Group**

-   Work on high-value, technically complex M&E projects
-   Be part of a business known for delivery, quality and growth
-   Strong pipeline across the UK and Europe
-   Opportunity to influence standards across multiple projects
-   Clear scope to grow into senior quality or regional roles
