About Us
Wing's Technical Services Ltd is a growing Facilities Management company delivering Mechanical, Electrical, Fire & Security, Building and Specialist Services across the South of England.
We work with schools, colleges, commercial properties and public sector clients, carrying out planned maintenance, reactive works and projects.
Due to continued growth, we're looking for an experienced Commercial Gas & Mechanical Manager to lead our Mechanical Department.
The Role
This is a hands-on management role for someone with a strong commercial gas background.
You'll be managing our mechanical engineers, carrying out site surveys, pricing work, supporting engineers with technical issues and overseeing projects from enquiry through to completion.
The role is mainly office based from our Gosport office, with regular site visits, client meetings and project surveys.
No two days are the same. One day you could be pricing a plant room replacement, the next carrying out a site survey or helping an engineer diagnose a commercial heating fault.
