Company: Irish Main Contractor
Salary: Up to €80,000 DOE


The Company

This Irish main contractor has built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality construction projects across Cork and the wider Munster region, with experience across healthcare, education, commercial, industrial and public sector developments.

With a strong pipeline of new build, refurbishment and fit out projects, the company is looking to appoint an experienced M&E Coordinator to support its growing operations in Cork. Known for its hands-on approach, experienced management team and high standards of delivery, the business offers long-term stability and the opportunity to work across a varied range of construction projects.

The Role: M&E Coordinator

This is an important M&E Coordinator position working on construction projects across Cork City and County Cork.

You will be responsible for coordinating mechanical and electrical services from design development through installation, commissioning and handover, ensuring all M&E packages are delivered safely, on programme and to the required quality standards.

Working closely with the Project Manager, Site Manager, design consultants and specialist M&E subcontractors, you will ensure building services installations are properly coordinated with structural and architectural works.

The role will suit an M&E Coordinator who understands the practical challenges of delivering building services on live construction sites and can manage technical issues before they affect programme delivery.

Must Have Requirements
  • Must have 3+ years' experience in M&E coordination, building services engineering or mechanical and electrical project delivery.
  • Proven experience required coordinating mechanical and electrical packages on Irish construction projects.
  • Strong technical understanding of HVAC, electrical installations, plumbing, fire protection and associated building services.
  • Experience working with a main contractor or specialist M&E contractor is required.
  • Ability to interpret M&E drawings, identify service clashes and coordinate subcontractors on site.
Preferred Experience
  • Experience on healthcare, education, commercial or public sector construction projects.
  • Familiarity with BIM coordination, Revit, Navisworks, AutoCAD or similar design software.
  • Knowledge of commissioning procedures, technical submittals and building services handover documentation.
  • Experience managing M&E installations within refurbishment projects or live building environments.
Key Responsibilities
  • Coordinate all mechanical and electrical installations across construction projects in Cork.
  • Manage M&E subcontractors to ensure works are completed safely, efficiently and in line with the construction programme.
  • Review mechanical and electrical drawings, specifications and technical submissions.
  • Identify and resolve service clashes between mechanical, electrical, structural and architectural elements.
  • Attend design coordination meetings and liaise with consultants, engineers and specialist subcontractors.
  • Monitor M&E installation progress and report programme risks to the Project Manager.
  • Ensure all mechanical and electrical works comply with project specifications, relevant building regulations and quality requirements.
  • Coordinate builder's works requirements, service penetrations, plant installations and associated M&E infrastructure.
  • Oversee inspections, testing, commissioning, snagging and final handover of building services packages.
  • Maintain accurate M&E progress reports, technical records and commissioning documentation.
About You

You are an experienced M&E Coordinator or Building Services Coordinator with a practical understanding of mechanical and electrical installations on Irish construction projects.

You will be comfortable dealing with M&E subcontractors, resolving technical issues and working alongside site management teams to keep installations progressing.

Strong communication skills, attention to detail and the ability to coordinate several specialist packages are essential.

A background in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering or building services would be particularly suitable.

What's on Offer

Salary: Up to €80,000 DOE

Benefits:

  • Company vehicle or vehicle allowance
  • Pension
  • Performance-related bonus
  • Healthcare
  • Annual leave
  • Ongoing professional development
  • Long-term career progression
  • Strong pipeline of projects across Cork 
Why Apply?

This is a strong opportunity for an M&E Coordinator looking to develop their career with an Irish main contractor delivering a varied range of building projects across Cork.

Rather than working on one specialist sector, you will gain exposure to healthcare, education, commercial and public sector construction, taking responsibility for coordinating mechanical and electrical services from early design through to project handover.

With a steady pipeline of local projects and an experienced management team, the position offers long-term prospects without the need for regular travel outside the Cork region.
