Job description

Electrical Project Manager - Small Works Division (Up to £1m Projects)

Location: Slough (Year 1), Slough/Canary Wharf thereafter

Salary: Up to £80,000 all-in

Type: Full-time, Permanent

About Us

My client is a respected name in delivering critical services projects across the UK—think data centres, hospitals, and financial institutions. We don't touch resi. Our projects are fast-paced, technical, and high-compliance.

We're looking to bring in an experienced Electrical Project Manager to join our growing small works division, with projects typically ranging between £250k-£750k, capped at £1.5m. We're after someone who's grown through the ranks, ideally from an apprentice background, who knows how to lead, deliver, and adapt when things don't go to plan.

The Role

This role will see you delivering electrical packages for one of our key clients—a major data centre provider. You'll be based in Slough for the first year, overseeing delivery, managing subcontractors, programme, H&S, and compliance.

The exciting part? Within 6 months, you'll step up to take on the account manager role, liaising directly with the client and overseeing future projects on the framework. If the end client stays in Slough, so will you. If not, you'll move with the team over to Canary Wharf.

What We're Looking For

• 5-6 years' experience as an Electrical PM
• Must have come through the tools—apprentice background preferred
• Strong experience in critical services (data centres, hospitals, banking)
• No residential experience, please
• Project delivery experience up to £1.5m max
• Based within sensible reach of Slough
• Comfortable on site full time for the first year
• Calm, detail-focused, practical—and someone who can appreciate a dry sense of humour (our director will get on with you better if you do)

The Package

• Up to £80,000 all-in (depending on experience)
• Travel expenses
• Clear path to client-facing account manager position
• Long-term opportunity to grow with a steady, respected business

Bonus Tip: If you've worked at firms like Campbell West, we'll definitely want to speak with you
