Job description

This job is brought to you by Jobs/Redefined, the UK's leading over-50s age inclusive jobs board.

Location: Redhill, Surrey 4 days per week, plus regular travel to sites across London & Home Counties

£55,000 - £70,000 + Travel, Parking & ULEZ Expenses Covered

Full Time On-Site Hybrid Flexibility

You're not just a Project Manager - you're a doer.
You've been the specialist subcontractor on site. You know what it's like to own your part of the job, bring the tools, solve the problems, and get the job done - without needing to "check with another department."

We're supporting our client on the hunt for someone exactly like you. They deliver stunning acoustic interiors, blinds, hardware, and other final fix finishes for high-end commercial spaces across London and the Home Counties. They don't need someone to sit in the background. They need someone who's hands-on, organised, and thrives in that sweet spot between detail and delivery.

What You'll Actually Do:

• Take full ownership of your projects as the specialist Project Manager, not just overseeing from the sidelines
• Manage 20-30 live jobs (from £1k to £150k+) across acoustic interiors, blinds, furniture, final fix and more
• Be on-site 1-2 days a week to run surveys, coordinate installs, and solve snags in real time
• Liaise confidently with main contractors, fit-out companies, suppliers, and installers - no middlemen, no red tape
• Work closely with a proactive, friendly internal team that supports you but doesn't slow you down

Requirements

• You've project-managed from the subcontractor side, ideally in fit-out, acoustics, blinds, or final fix
• You know how to run your scope, take accountability, and make real-time decisions on-site
• Based in London or the Home Counties, with flexibility to travel regularly to projects
• Great attention to detail - you're the one who spots what others miss
• Self-motivated and proactive - if there's a problem, you fix it, not flag it for someone else
• CAD experience is a nice bonus (but not a deal-breaker)

What's In It For You:

• £55,000-£70,000 salary (DOE)
• All travel, parking & ULEZ expenses covered
• Hybrid working options - we're outcome-focused, not clock-watchers
• Genuinely supportive team and culture - no egos, just good people
• Clear opportunity to grow and help shape the business as they scale
