Job description

Project Manager

Portsmouth & surrounding areas

£70,000 per annum + pool car

I'm seeking an experienced Project Manager for a client of mine, an established South Coast contractor. You'll be based on projects in Portsmouth and the surrounding areas.

Typically you'll oversee up to 5 projects at any given time, usually valued between £500k and £2M. The projects are construction and refurbishment, mainly in healthcare, education and Local Authority settings, and often in live, occupied buildings.

You'll run projects from planning through to handover. That means managing programmes, budgets, variations and subcontractor performance, and acting as the main point of contact for schools, LA clients and consultants.

You'll need a keen eye for detail and good commercial awareness, and you should be happy managing both direct labour and subcontractors. The client has a strong pipeline of work, so there's real scope for long-term progression.

Requirements:

• Solid construction management background
• Good working knowledge of CDM and H&S
• SMSTS
• Black CSCS
• First Aid
• Full UK driving licence

Desirable:

• Experience working in occupied schools or other live buildings
• Local Authority / public-sector contract experience
