Job description

Project Manager Plymouth | Construction & Property Consultancy | Up to £60,000 + Benefits Ready to take your project management career further?

Are you a Project Manager with a strong Building Surveying background who wants more than just another project list?

This is an opportunity to join an established and growing consultancy in Plymouth, where you'll have genuine ownership of projects, direct client exposure and the chance to work across some technically interesting schemes.

From major refurbishments and new-build developments to heritage projects and complex project recoveries, no two projects are likely to look the same.

The Opportunity

The consultancy is continuing to grow its project delivery team and is looking for an ambitious Project Manager to join them.

You'll work closely with experienced Directors and Senior Surveyors, taking responsibility for a varied portfolio across:

• Residential developments
• Commercial property
• Healthcare
• Heritage and conservation
• Public sector programmes

You'll be involved throughout the project lifecycle, from early feasibility and due diligence through to procurement, construction and completion.

There's also the opportunity to get involved with challenging or distressed projects, helping clients navigate issues and get schemes back on track.

What You'll Be Doing as a Project Manager

You'll take ownership of your projects and act as a key point of contact for clients, consultants and contractors.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Managing projects from feasibility through to completion
• Taking responsibility for programme, budget, quality and risk
• Building strong relationships with clients and stakeholders
• Managing consultants, contractors and wider project teams
• Providing technical input across design, procurement and construction
• Carrying out technical due diligence, surveys and assessments
• Preparing reports, project documentation and funding submissions
• Supporting the recovery of complex or underperforming projects
• Representing the consultancy at industry and networking events

What They're Looking For

You'll ideally have a background in Project Management, Building Surveying or a combination of both, with the confidence to take ownership of projects and communicate effectively with a range of stakeholders.

You'll bring:

• 3+ years' experience in Project Management and/or Building Surveying
• Consultancy experience
• Experience across public and/or private sector projects
• Good pre- and post-contract knowledge
• Strong organisational and project management skills
• APC completed or close to completion
• A proactive, personable and collaborative approach
• Willingness to travel to project sites when required

The Package

• Up to £60,000 salary
• 25 days' annual leave + bank holidays
• Hybrid working
• Private healthcare
• Pension scheme
• Cycle-to-work scheme
• MacBook and full IT setup
• Regular team socials and events
• Genuine opportunities for progression and professional development

Why Consider It?

This is a role for someone who wants to be involved, trusted and given room to progress.

You'll have the support of an experienced team around you, but also the autonomy to make decisions, build client relationships and have a visible impact on the projects you work on.

If you're looking for a Project Manager position where your Building Surveying knowledge is genuinely valued and you can continue to develop, this could be worth a conversation.
