This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Site Lead Plumbing Engineer to take ownership of high-quality plumbing installations within the hospitality sector. The role is fully hands-on (on-the-tools), focused on delivering high-quality plumbing work on-site, rather than operating as a non-working Site Supervisor position.

The position is primarily centred on restaurant fit-outs and includes working alongside site teams to deliver installations to a high standard, while supporting coordination on-site where required.

You’ll play a key role in delivering projects to a high standard, working alongside skilled teams across a variety of commercial environments.

  • Ensure compliance with all health & safety regulations
  • Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues on-site
  • Maintain accurate site records and communicate progress updates when required

Requirements

Must-Have

  • Level 2 & Level 3 Plumbing qualifications
  • Unvented Hot Water certification
  • Minimum 5 years’ experience in plumbing (commercial or hospitality)
  • Strong experience working on-site in a hands-on capacity
  • Strong understanding of health & safety regulations
  • Full UK driving licence

Nice-to-Have

  • Previous experience in hospitality or restaurant plumbing installations
  • Experience in wider commercial plumbing projects

What’s on Offer

  • £55,000-£65,000 per year
  • Company van & fuel card
  • Pension contributions
  • Private medical insurance
  • Paid training and development opportunities
  • 28 days holiday (including bank holidays)
  • Uniform and PPE provided

Why Join?

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a forward-thinking business specialising in niche, high-demand hospitality projects. You’ll gain exposure to exciting installations, work hands-on within a skilled team, and build a long-term career in a supportive environment.
