M&E Pre-Construction Manager
M&E Pre‑Construction Manager jobs in the North‑West
Permanent M&E Pre‑Construction Manager roles with building services contractors across the North‑West.
ravensearch is a specialist M&E recruitment agency working only on permanent roles in mechanical and electrical building services. We are based in Wigan and the contractors we work with are spread across the region, from Liverpool and Warrington through Manchester and out to Leeds.
This is the step most senior estimators are aiming at, and it is a genuine change of job rather than a bigger version of the same one. You stop pricing everything yourself and start deciding what gets priced, who prices it, and what the business is prepared to put its name to.
What the work involves
The projects behind these roles
Healthcare, education, defence, custodial and public sector frameworks, alongside commercial and industrial work. At this level the schemes are large, and the North‑West has a steady pipeline of major public sector work that keeps demand for the role consistent rather than cyclical.
Permanent pre‑construction manager roles we have handled recently have paid between £55,000 and £70,000, with a car or allowance and package on top.
The range is wide because the job title covers quite different jobs. Managing two estimators at a regional contractor and running a full bid function at a national one pay very differently, so it is worth establishing which one you are being offered.
Every role here is permanent. We do not handle freelance or contract work, so nothing on this page is a day rate.

M&E jobs in Liverpool
Liverpool has a settled base of M&E contractors and a steady flow of permanent roles.
Large residential schemes, waterfront and city centre regeneration, healthcare and education work all keep the local building services market busy. Several of the contractors we deal with are Liverpool businesses rather than branches of something bigger, which tends to mean shorter decision chains and quicker hiring.
It is also a market where growing contractors hire ahead of the workload, so estimating and commercial appointments often come up before the projects they are meant to support. If you are watching for a move, it is worth being on our list rather than waiting for an advert.
