Salary: A competitive salary depending on experience & discretionary bonus

Rendesco is the UK's leading heat pump and heat network business. We design, build, fund, own and operate heat networks and heat pump systems that help to decarbonise our homes. Our unique low cost and low carbon solutions enable new-build developers, social housing providers and homeowners to move away from gas quickly, affordably and at scale.

We're at an inflection point. The market is moving decisively towards low carbon heating, and we have the capital, technology and track record to lead this transition. We’re now looking for talented people to help us build the future of low carbon energy.

Decarbonisation should be easy, and we make it effortless. You’ll be an experienced mechanical installation leader who understands what good looks like on site and has the credibility to lead engineering teams.
You’ll have:

• A hands-on mechanical background (pipefitting, plumbing, heating or mechanical installation).
• Experience delivering large commercial plant rooms, energy centres or complex mechanical installations.
• A background within an M&E contractor, plant room specialist, heat network or district heating environment.
• Experience leading multiple installation teams and managing complex delivery programmes.
• Strong understanding of mechanical systems, pipework, hydraulics, pressure and flow.
• The ability to read and challenge mechanical drawings and schematics.
• Experience improving processes, developing teams and driving higher standards.
• A practical, hands-on approach with strong leadership skills.

We’re looking for an experienced Head of M&E Installation to take ownership of mechanical installation delivery across Rendesco as we continue to scale.
This is a hands-on technical leadership role, heavily focused on the mechanical side of the business. You’ll bring extensive experience delivering plant rooms, energy centres and mechanical pipework installations, alongside the leadership capability to build teams, improve processes and create a consistent approach across our projects.
You’ll lead our existing installation functions, including our In-Home Installation Manager and Pipelaying Manager, while building a commercial plant room team from the ground up. You’ll define how we deliver installations, improve quality standards and ensure systems are handed over safely and right first time.

Your work will include:

• Leading mechanical installation delivery across heat pump installations, heat networks and commercial plant rooms.
• Providing technical leadership and support to engineering teams.
• Building and developing a plant room delivery capability, reducing reliance on subcontractors.
• Creating installation standards, processes and best practice across multiple regions.
• Improving quality, productivity and consistency across projects.
• Supporting design reviews, buildability assessments and technical problem solving.
• Managing installation teams, subcontractors and delivery performance.
• Driving a strong safety culture across all mechanical works.
• A Competitive salary depending on experience.
• Discretionary performance-related bonus.
• Private Medical Insurance after 6 months service.
• Electric Vehicle Salary Sacrifice and Cycle to Work Salary Sacrifice schemes.
• Quarterly Social Fund allocation for team events and gatherings.
• A collaborative and supportive culture, with regular company socials, team events and celebrations designed to bring our teams together.
• £30 monthly contribution towards your phone contract.
• Further training, qualifications and development opportunities.
• 25 days holiday (plus bank holidays).
