Wayne Hockham: The Technical Expertise Behind NU’s M&E Standard

Wayne Hockham: M&E Technical Expert at NU Projects

At NU, the quality of our work depends on the people behind it. Every project relies on technical knowledge, strong leadership and the ability to solve problems before they become delays. Wayne Hockham, M&E Technical Expert, brings all of those qualities to the NU team.

With more than two decades of experience in the construction industry, Wayne began his career through a plumbing and heating apprenticeship. That early, hands-on training gave him a proper grounding in the realities of site work, installation, coordination and client delivery.

From there, he expanded his expertise across the full mechanical and electrical services field. His career has covered commercial, industrial and high-end residential projects, giving him a broad and practical understanding of how buildings function, how services should be delivered and how teams need to be managed.

Over the last 10 years, Wayne has focused heavily on prestigious residential projects across Central London and the surrounding counties. His experience includes landmark schemes connected with the Eccleston family and Candy & Candy, as well as earlier mechanical and electrical packages for Downing Street and government buildings around Westminster.

This level of experience gives Wayne a rare depth of knowledge. There are very few areas within mechanical and electrical services that he has not worked with, managed or found solutions for. His approach is practical, efficient and standards-led.

Wayne is known for his ability to lead teams, maintain high levels of safety and deliver reliable results in demanding environments. He is a natural problem solver, with the experience to identify issues quickly and the technical understanding to resolve them properly.

For NU clients, Wayne strengthens our commitment to control, quality and accountability. His role supports the wider NU standard, ensuring mechanical and electrical works are delivered with the same precision, care and professionalism expected across every part of a project.

At NU, we believe the best results come from experience, coordination and clear responsibility. Wayne brings all three.
