Job description

📍 Bradford / Leeds + National Travel (Will also consider applicants from the South- London/Surrey)

💰 Competitive salary + Car Allowance/Company Car + KPI Bonus & OTE

Tiger Modular is part of the Woodlands Home & Garden Group, established in 1913. We design, manufacture, and install garden rooms and modular buildings for customers across the UK.

We are growing, and we need a Project Manager who can help us scale - someone who doesn't just manage what's in front of them, but who actively builds better systems, stronger teams, and a culture of quality.

THE ROLE

This is an end-to-end Project Management role. You'll own the process from manufacturing through to installation and aftercare, managing a national network of employed and subcontracted installers.

You'll be responsible for delivery, quality, cost control, and critically, for growing and developing the installation operation as the business scales.

This isn't a desk-based PM role. You'll need to be hands-on, commercially aware, and comfortable making decisions under pressure. You'll deal with subcontractors, clients, site issues, and competing priorities daily. We need someone who thrives on that.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Project Delivery

• Own day-to-day operations across manufacturing, despatch, and installation- on time, on budget, right first time
• Manage project schedules, proactively identify risks, and keep all stakeholders informed
• Drive a culture of quality and health & safety across every stage

Building & Managing the Installation Network

• Manage national and regional installation resources, balancing permanent teams and subcontracted labour
• Grow the installer network-recruit, onboard, and develop new installers to meet increasing demand
• Lead performance management, addressing underperformance early and constructively & Celebrating/rewarding excellent performance

Commercial & Performance Management

• Set, track, and report on KPIs covering quality, financial performance, H&S, and resourcing
• Manage project budgets, controlling costs and protecting or improving margins
• Report regularly to the Commercial Director with clear, data-driven updates
• Implement quality control measures that catch issues early and prevent recurrence
• Drive improvements to products, processes, and systems
• Encourage innovation that improves performance, profitability, and the customer experience

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR

• Proven experience managing operational delivery or installation projects- ideally in construction, modular buildings, joinery, fit-out, home improvement, or similar
• Experience managing dispersed field teams, including subcontractors/ specialist trades
• Strong leadership and people management-you can motivate a team, have difficult conversations, and deal with conflict constructively
• Commercially minded- understand budgets, margins, and cost control
• Organised, decisive, and data-literate
• Not scared of hardwork and travel
• Joinery or timber-frame product knowledge
• Experience scaling or growing a B2C installation operation
• Drawing interpretation or drawing software experience
• Formal PM qualification (PRINCE2, APM) useful but not essential with the right experience

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE AFTER 12 MONTHS

• Projects consistently delivered right first time
• A growing, well-managed, skilled installer network
• Budget and margin targets met or exceeded
• Strong working relationships across Sales, Operations, and senior leadership
• Health & safety compliance maintained with no significant incidents

WHAT WE OFFER

• Car allowance OR Company Car + business expenses
• 28 days holiday (inc. bank holidays) + length of service increase
• Holiday purchase scheme (up to 5 extra days per year)
• Generous staff discount on Woodlands DIY and Tiger garden buildings
• Internal reward & recognition scheme
• Employee Ownership Trust- annual tax-efficient bonus (when applicable)
• Personal learning, development & progression opportunities
• Free parking at all our facilities (Bradford & Leeds)
• On-site canteens with free hot drinks

You’ll be joining a business group with over 100 years of heritage that's investing in growth. This role offers genuine ownership- you won't be a cog in a machine. You'll shape how Tiger Modular delivers, grows, and improves. If you want a role where you can make a real impact, this is it.
