Job Description:

A highly successful global property consultancy has recently instructed Beach Baker to recruit a senior-level Project Manager or Projects Building Surveyor within their busy Newport office.

Role Features:

• Office based in the city centre.
• Part of a Project Management & Building Surveying team of 35 people (all based in Newport).
• Managing commercial sector projects (very little public sector work).
• Working with ‘Grade-A’ clients.
• Contract work typically ranges between £5M to £50M.
• Social and people-focused organization.

What’s in it for you?

• Fantastic office location with easy access to amenities including Cabot Circus, Clifton, and Harbourside. Modern staff gym, break-out areas, showers, cycle facilities, and more. The team generally works in the office 2 days a week, with the rest on-site and WFH.
• Supportive environment within one of the largest Project Management & Building Surveying teams in the region, with many team members having over 10 years at the company.
• Work with top clients (mainly pension funds) investing in property, ensuring a busy pipeline of projects into 2025 and beyond.
• Varied projects without being pigeonholed; the company supports specialization or creating a niche, making this role ideal for someone wanting to shape their own position.
• Manage high-level commercial projects impacting the local area.
• Regular social and networking events, including monthly pay-day drinks (paid by the company), quarterly meals, an annual company event, Christmas party, and charity days.

Employee Benefits:

Car allowance (dependent on level), discretionary bonus (generally paid unless during exceptional times like 2008 or COVID-19), 30 days annual leave plus birthday off if it falls on a weekday, private medical insurance, life insurance, company laptop and mobile, RICS membership fees, salary sacrifice schemes, and more.

Candidate Profile:

Ideally MRICS or MCIOB accredited. Candidates from commercial, construction consultancy, or client-side backgrounds are welcome. The role is suited for those aspiring to line management and leadership, with the goal of heading the project management department.
