M & E Coordinator - Part-Time

⚙ What Does an M&E Coordinator Do?

• Liaise with consultants, clients, contractors & sub‑contractors to resolve technical issues and ensure works match design & specification.
• Coordinate with other trades (architectural, structural, plumbing, fire safety) so M&E installation fits into overall site work & sequence. Avoid conflicts and clashes.
• Monitor and supervise installation of M&E works (HVAC / ACMV, electrical, lighting, plumbing, fire‑protection systems, etc.). Ensure quality, safety, adherence to codes.
