Role Overview

The Senior Manager – MEP Projects is a strategic and execution-focused leadership role responsible for driving end-to-end MEP excellence across multiple large-scale projects. This position demands a technically strong, highly disciplined, and hands-on leader who brings structure, foresight, and operational rigor to complex, fast-paced environments.

You will act as the MEP anchor across projects, ensuring seamless integration of mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and fire systems into overall project delivery. You are deeply involved in planning, reviewing, mentoring, and resolving high-impact technical and execution challenges to ensure flawless outcomes.

You are not just managing MEP packages — you are building predictability, precision, and performance into every layer of execution.

Key Responsibilities:

• Drive operational discipline across all MEP phases — design review, procurement, installation, testing, commissioning, and handover.

• Establish standardized processes, checklists, and quality benchmarks for MEP execution.

• Conduct periodic project audits to identify technical, commercial, and scheduling risks.

• Ensure all MEP systems align with client requirements, statutory norms, and Zyeta's delivery standards.

• Build predictability and rhythm into MEP execution across projects.

Strategic Planning & Scheduling

• Develop integrated MEP execution strategies aligned with overall project timelines.

• Review and validate detailed MEP schedules prepared by Project Managers and site teams.

• Ensure logical sequencing, clash-free coordination, and realistic resource planning.

• Forecast manpower, material, and vendor requirements proactively to prevent delays.

• Utilize MS Project and other monitoring tools to track performance, productivity, and cost metrics.

Technical Governance & Design Coordination

• Review MEP drawings, BOQs, value engineering proposals, and technical submittals.

• Lead cross-functional coordination between design, interiors, civil, and MEP teams to eliminate rework.

• Drive early detection and resolution of design conflicts through structured review mechanisms.

• Oversee testing and commissioning protocols to ensure smooth system handover.

• Maintain version control and structured documentation across all MEP packages.

Vendor & Commercial Management

• Lead vendor evaluation, onboarding, and performance management for MEP contractors.

• Monitor contract compliance, billing certification, cost control, and variation management.

• Drive accountability with vendors on timelines, quality standards, and safety norms.

• Collaborate with procurement and finance teams to ensure commercial discipline.

• Balance strong relationship management with performance enforcement.

Stakeholder & Client Management

• Represent Zyeta's MEP leadership in client and consultant meetings.

• Provide structured updates on MEP progress, risks, and mitigation strategies.

• Ensure transparent communication across all stakeholders to prevent misalignment.

• Build trust through clarity, technical depth, and delivery reliability.

Leadership & Capability Building

• Lead and mentor MEP engineers, site managers, and technical teams across projects.

• Build a strong second line capable of independently managing large-scale MEP scopes.

• Foster a culture of ownership, technical rigor, and proactive problem-solving.

• Lead by example through on-site reviews, schedule validations, and quality checks.

• Drive continuous improvement in planning, monitoring, and execution frameworks.

Who You Are

• A seasoned MEP leader with deep technical expertise across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection systems.

• A strategic planner who understands large-scale project dependencies and execution complexities.

• A structured thinker who builds systems, not just solutions.

• A decisive problem solver who addresses root causes and prevents recurrence.

• A people-focused leader who balances empathy with performance accountability.
