Job description

Job Title: Construction Manager | Commercial Projects

Location: Mayfair, London

Salary: £125,000 – £140,000 + Equity + Package

Type: Full-time, Permanent

The Role:

We’re looking for a technically strong Project Manager/ Construction Manager to take the lead on building a new commercial office development business in London.

This is a hands-on delivery role where you’ll take full responsibility for managing Central London office projects from pre-construction through to handover — while also playing a key role in shaping the structure, direction, and growth of the business.

You’ll be backed by a highly established UK property group with a successful track record of launching and scaling new ventures. This role offers equity, autonomy, and the chance to build something of your own — without taking on risk.

What We're Looking For:

• A technical project manager/construction manager with a strong track record delivering CAT A and CAT B office fit-outs in Central London
• Hands-on experience leading projects across all RIBA stages, including on-site delivery
• Someone commercially switched-on, who understands risk, cost, programme, and quality
• A doer who’s comfortable working independently and taking the lead
• Someone who wants to grow their own platform, with equity and long-term upside

What’s On Offer:

• A newly created leadership role — you're the first hire into this business
• Equity, plus dividend potential
• Backing from a respected and financially secure UK developer
• Real autonomy — you’ll be expected to drive the business, not just deliver projects

About the Group:

The parent company has a 20+ year track record in delivering over 2 million sq ft of commercial space and homes for over 3,600 people across the UK. They’ve successfully launched and scaled multiple development businesses and are now focused on growing a London-led commercial platform. The portfolio spans office, retail, mixed-use, and residential — with a strong focus on regeneration and long-term growth.

If you're a technically strong PM who wants to move beyond project delivery and take ownership of building something new — this is the opportunity.
