Job description

Overview

I have been asked to find a Contracts Manager or an experienced Project Manager looking to step up into the role. My client is a groundworks/RC frame specialist and they plan to open an office in the Birmingham area to cover the Midlands. This is an already very successful contractor who are relatively new to the industry and making very positive in-roads in this competitive sector. The office could be anywhere within a 30 mile radius of Birmingham, depending on the successful applicant's preference. You will be able to set up a brand new regional business with full support from the wider company and the Directors. An opportunity such as this, where you can shape and build a business from inception comes along very rarely.

The salary/package/rate on offer reflect the importance of this opportunity and there is plenty of room for negotiation to secure the right candidate.

My client has a couple of projects due to commence soon in the Midlands so you will not be starting with a blank order book.

I am keen to speak to Contracts Managers with a successful track record of performance in the groundwork contracting sector—particularly on the commercial side. My client has completed a number of groundwork schemes on large retail and commercial developments in recent months. As a business they don\'t tend to work on residential schemes.

Please get in touch for further details on this and other opportunities that may align with your skills, experience and career aspirations.
