We're working with a fast-growing, highly regarded contractor delivering complex, technically demanding projects across the North — and they're looking for a Project Manager to take the reins on live work and play a key role in shaping future delivery.

• Working closely with designers, estimating teams, consultants, and subcontractors
• Managing all aspects of delivery: planning, progress, stakeholder management, commercial awareness, quality and HSEQ
• Reporting into a Contracts Manager and collaborating across internal teams
• Bringing smart thinking, energy and technical insight to fast‑moving environments

What You'll Need:

• 5+ years' experience in a main contractor role
• Strong working knowledge of mechanical, electrical, fit‑out or civils (ideally Mechanically biased)
• Experience managing projects through RIBA design and commissioning stages
• Strong communicator with a sharp commercial instinct and a proactive, hands‑on mindset
• CSCS, SMSTS, IOSH (or willingness to complete)
• Based within an hour of Warrington and happy to be site‑based

What's On Offer:

• Competitive salary (based on experience)
• Car allowance / vehicle scheme
• Private healthcare, dental, and life insurance
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays
