We recruit M&E and facilities management professionals across both West and East Sussex, from Chichester and Bognor along the coast through Worthing and Brighton, and up to Horsham, Crawley and the Gatwick corridor, one of the busiest building services markets in the South East.
Sussex runs at two speeds. The coastal strip is steady commercial, healthcare, education and residential work, while the Crawley and Gatwick corridor is a different animal: airport infrastructure, data centres, big logistics and the supply chain that surrounds them. Both need good engineers, and both are short of them.
Brighton adds its own flavour, a dense city centre stock of offices, hotels, leisure and heritage buildings that demands versatile maintenance engineers and FM teams who can handle anything from a listed building to a brand new fit out.
For candidates, the practical question in Sussex is travel. The A27 and A23 shape everything. We only put roles in front of you that genuinely work for where you live, and for employers we're honest about which patches your salary will and won't recruit from.
What we placeYes, both, from Chichester to Eastbourne and up to the Surrey border. Most demand sits along the coast and the Gatwick corridor but we work the whole patch.
Yes. Critical environment experience commands a premium there and shift patterns change the candidate pool completely. We'll tell you honestly how your role and package compare to what the airport supply chain is offering.
Tell us your real travel limit and we'll respect it. Nothing gets put in front of you that doesn't fit, and your CV is never sent anywhere without your consent.
