Job description

Senior Project Manager - Construction Consultancy

London Competitive Salary + Package

I'm looking for an experienced Senior Project Manager to join a successful and growing construction consultancy in London.

This is an opportunity for someone who has built up a strong track record across a variety of sectors, including commercial and mixed-use developments, and enjoys taking ownership of projects, working closely with clients and being involved from the early stages right through to delivery.

The consultancy has a varied pipeline of work, so this isn't a role where you'll be limited to one type of project. You'll have the opportunity to work with different clients, tackle complex schemes and continue building a broad and impressive project portfolio.

The role

As Senior Project Manager, you'll take a leading role in the successful delivery of projects, including:

• Managing projects from inception through to completion
• Leading and coordinating consultant and contractor teams
• Managing programmes, budgets, risk and project reporting
• Overseeing procurement and delivery strategies
• Chairing project meetings and driving actions forward
• Building strong relationships with clients and key stakeholders
• Identifying issues early and ensuring projects remain on track
• Supporting and mentoring more junior members of the team

What I'm looking for

You’ll ideally bring:

• Strong experience within a construction consultancy environment
• A track record delivering projects across a variety of sectors
• Experience within commercial and mixed-use developments
• Excellent client-facing and stakeholder management skills
• Confidence managing multidisciplinary project teams
• Strong understanding of the full development and construction lifecycle
• A relevant construction/property qualification
• MRICS, MAPM or similar would be beneficial but isn’t essential

More than anything, I’m looking for someone who is proactive, commercially aware and confident with clients - someone who wants to take responsibility for their projects and continue progressing their career.

Why consider it?

You’ll be joining a consultancy where you can work across interesting, varied projects without becoming pigeonholed into one sector.

There is genuine scope to grow within the business, develop client relationships and take on increasing responsibility as the team continues to expand.
