Overview

Project Manager / Engineer – Structural and Civil Engineering Projects

Location: Sheffield with UK and NI travel

Salary: £45,000 to £60,000 depending on experience plus benefits

I’m working with a growing engineering specialist delivering complex structural and civil projects across the UK. The business has been going from strength to strength and, with a busy order book, they’re now looking for two Project Managers to join the team. One role is to replace someone moving on, and the other is brand new because of the growth they’re seeing.

This is a great opportunity to join a company with a family feel where people are genuinely supported. They’re not hung up on you having the perfect background either. Whether you’re coming from consultancy, contracting or engineering, what matters most is the right attitude, the drive to learn their specialist products and the willingness to grow with the business.

What you’ll be doing

• Taking charge of projects from handover through to completion, making sure they’re delivered on time, on budget and to the highest standard
• Coordinating site activities and managing subcontractors
• Leading project meetings and keeping everything on track financially
• Building strong relationships with clients and internal teams
• Solving problems as they come up and sharing lessons learned to improve future projects

What they’re looking for

• Background in engineering or technical project management, ideally with experience in structural, mechanical or civil projects
• Confidence managing budgets, schedules and contracts
• Experience leading teams and subcontractors
• Strong communication and organisational skills
• Willingness to travel to sites across the UK and Northern Ireland

Why this role stands out

• You’ll be working on challenging projects with a company that’s growing quickly and has a great reputation
• Real scope for career progression with support to develop your skills
• Competitive salary between £45k and £60k depending on experience, with travel expenses covered
