Job description

I'm currently looking to speak with experienced Senior Project Managers for a major, long-term residential property upgrade programme. This is a high-profile role for someone who is a strong operational leader, capable of taking ownership of complex programmes and driving delivery across multiple years. The role involves managing a major client relationship, so senior stakeholder management, commercial awareness and the ability to build trusted client relationships are all critical.

The programme is focused on traditional-build residential property upgrades and wider improvements to the existing housing stock, so experience delivering refurbishment, planned works, property improvement or similar residential upgrade programmes is particularly relevant.

Responsibilities

• Lead delivery teams and drive operational performance across a sizeable programme
• Manage complex client and stakeholder relationships at senior level
• Understand the commercial side of delivery and make sound project/business decisions
• Take ownership of programme performance, risk, cost, quality and delivery
• Operate confidently in a long-term, client-facing environment
• Bring strong experience of residential refurbishment, upgrades or property improvement programmes
• Tier 1 contractor experience would be desirable, but the key requirement is genuine experience of leading substantial residential property improvement/upgrading programmes and managing demanding client relationships.
