6. Produce client reports at all project stages.
7. Manage client relationships throughout the project cycle.
8. Interpret contracts, manage changes, resolve disputes, and implement project controls.
9. Engage in business development internally and externally, including with existing clients.

• MRICS or similar project management qualification.
• Experience in delivering projects for new build commercial buildings and refurbishments, especially offices.
• Experience managing large, complex schemes (£2m to £50m+).
• A proven track record of delivering high-quality project management services from start to finish.
