Job description

A leading main contractor with a strong and growing presence across London and the South East is seeking a permanent Project Manager to join its fit out and interiors division. The business delivers large scale commercial, residential and mixed use schemes nationally and has built a reputation for repeat client work, low staff turnover and genuine investment in the people it hires. This is a permanent staff appointment, not a project by project contract.

The project

A secured £80m commercial office fit out in the City of London, a short walk from Liverpool Street station. The scheme is a large floorplate office refurbishment and fit out for a corporate end user, mobilising in early November 2026 with completion in 2028.

The works include

• Strip out and preparation of existing floors
• Category A and Category B fit out across multiple levels, including open plan and cellular workspace, meeting suites, client facing floors and staff amenity areas
• Full MEP installation and coordination, including new plant, ventilation, lighting and controls
• Reception, core and washroom upgrades, along with finishes to feature areas and circulation space
• Delivery within a live and constrained City environment, with restricted access, tight logistics and a high standard of finish expected throughout

• Working with the design and technical teams to resolve information, drive the RFI process and manage the change process
• Overseeing health, safety, environmental and quality compliance, including CDM duties
• Monitoring cost and value alongside the QS team and reporting on commercial performance
• Managing snagging, commissioning, handover and the production of O and M documentation

• Proven track record delivering commercial office fit out projects, ideally with values of £20m or above

• Experience of working in occupied buildings or constrained City centre locations is highly desirable

Package and benefits

• £80,000 to £100,000 basic salary depending on experience

• Permanent role with a secured project through to 2028
• Clear progression route within an expanding fit out and interiors business
