Project Manager in City

Our client is a leading construction specialist with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality projects across the UK. Due to continued growth, they are looking to appoint a dedicated Project Manager to take full responsibility for the successful delivery of individual construction projects.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a business that believes in giving its Project Managers ownership of their projects.

The Role

As Project Manager, you will have overall responsibility for the day-to-day management of a live construction site from site mobilisation through to practical completion and client handover.

You will lead the site team, coordinate subcontractors and suppliers, monitor programme performance and ensure every aspect of the build is delivered to the highest standard. Working closely with the Contracts Manager and commercial team, you'll be empowered to make key decisions that drive the successful completion of your project.

Key Responsibilities

• Take full ownership of the delivery of a single construction project from mobilisation through to completion.
• Lead and support the site management team to achieve programme, quality and safety objectives.
• Manage subcontractors, suppliers and site resources to ensure efficient project delivery.
• Monitor construction progress and proactively resolve any issues that could impact programme or quality.
• Ensure strict compliance with all health, safety and environmental requirements.
• Control project costs in conjunction with the commercial team, ensuring works are delivered within budget.
• Chair site progress meetings and provide regular reports to senior management.
• Maintain excellent relationships with clients, consultants and subcontractors throughout the project.
• Oversee snagging, commissioning and final handover, ensuring an exceptional finish and client satisfaction.

• A supportive business that empowers its Project Managers to focus on delivering quality projects rather than juggling multiple sites.
• Long-term career progression with a growing and respected contractor.
• A collaborative working environment with a strong commitment to quality, safety and professional development.
