Job description

Project Manager - Consultancy & Construction | £55,000 - £70,000 | Hertfordshire

We are working with an established and growing business that offers both professional project management consultancy and construction delivery services, with a strong presence across technically complex projects, including laboratories and specialist commercial environments.

They are looking to appoint an experienced Project Manager who can take ownership of projects from early design development through procurement, construction and handover.

This is an interesting opportunity for someone who enjoys the client-facing and strategic aspects of consultancy project management but also wants to remain closely involved in the practical delivery of construction projects.

The role will involve

• Leading multidisciplinary design teams through RIBA Stages 2-4.
• Managing project programmes, budgets, risks and stakeholder relationships.
• Working alongside commercial and procurement teams to develop tender packages and appoint contractors.
• Supporting in-house construction teams through project delivery and handover.
• Acting as a key point of contact for clients, building relationships and ensuring successful project outcomes.
• Contributing to wider business objectives, including commercial performance and repeat business.

We are interested in speaking with individuals who have

• A background in project management consultancy, client-side development or construction project management.
• Experience managing design teams and coordinating projects through the RIBA stages.
• A strong understanding of procurement, contracts and construction delivery.
• The commercial awareness and confidence to manage client relationships independently.
• A collaborative, proactive approach and the ability to work across design, commercial and construction teams.
• Experience working as an Employer's Agent would also be particularly relevant.

The business values collaboration and face-to-face working, so applicants should be within a reasonable commute of the Watford area, with time spent between the office, client meetings and project sites.

For someone who enjoys seeing projects through from initial concept to completed building, this offers a genuinely varied role with the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to a growing business.
