Job description

A&P Tyne Project Manager

Our Project Management team is critical to the business as the main interface between us and our customers, coordinating and expediting all aspects of projects including planning, managing budgets, coordinating the team, and ensuring successful delivery.

This role is 100% site-based, working closely with internal teams and customer representatives to manage complex, fast-paced engineering projects.

We are looking for someone who can take responsibility and own the outcome. If that sounds like you, we'd love to talk.

What will you do?
  1. Take full ownership of multi-million-pound fabrication projects.
  2. Lead a skilled team on-site, including planners, engineers, production, and quality teams, managing deadlines, budgets, and deliverables with precision.
  3. Act as the key point of contact for our customer, building trust and confidence.
  4. Navigate challenges in real-time, ensuring no detail is missed.
  5. Drive performance, safety, and quality at every step.
What are we looking for?
  1. An engineering qualification, preferably in mechanical engineering or similar, with solid project management experience in heavy fabrication, shipbuilding, defense, or complex engineering environments.
  2. Someone who thrives in a busy, hands-on setting rather than behind a desk.
  3. Confidence working daily with senior stakeholders, including customers.
  4. A strong understanding of project lifecycles, change control, and cost management.
  5. APM, PRINCE2, or similar certification (or working towards it).
  6. Eligibility for MOD security clearance is essential.
  7. Competency in MS Office and planning tools like MS Project or Primavera.
  8. Procurement and budget management skills, including data analysis, Excel, and management reporting with accuracy and attention to detail.
  9. A strong planner and organiser, comfortable making decisions to meet targets.
Why join us?

Personal Growth - An opportunity to make a significant impact and learn from experts in marine and structural engineering industries.

Financial Security - Benefits include a pension with up to 4% employer contribution and life cover at 7 times your salary.

Healthy Living - Support for healthy living, sick pay, health cash plans, dental, optical, physiotherapy, and wellness services including mental health support, virtual GP, and EAP.

Work-life Balance - 25 days of annual leave plus Bank Holidays, with support for maternity, paternity, and parental leave.
