Job description

BJF Group is a leading multi-discipline Main Contractor based across the UK, specialising in delivering high-quality construction projects across various sectors - priding ourselves on our reputation for excellence and attention to detail.

As we continue to grow, our Facilities Management division are looking to appoint a driven and professional Project Manager to manage our Small Works team based across multiple sites in Wiltshire.

We pride ourselves on nurturing talent and fostering an environment where everyone has the opportunity to thrive - if you have ambitions to play a key part in driving our business forwards, then we want you to join us at an exciting time of development and growth to realise your full potential.

Position

At BJF Group, we offer a career filled with opportunities, challenges, and innovations within a family environment where you're empowered to make a real difference.

The Project Manager will work alongside the FM Core delivery team in supporting our client to provide cost-effective solutions through capital replacement of varying estate assets, whilst also developing the customer brief into a robust scope of works - submitting prices and timeframes for delivery to maintain a Small Works pipeline as well as generating new works through ongoing condition reports and asset lifecycle failures.

Reporting directly into the Regional Facilities Manager, the post holder will play a key role in managing our relationship with the client - continuing to build on our collaborative approach through regular meetings and updates on the Small Works pipeline, as well as taking the time to understand the changing requirements of the client to generate your own additional works outside of the existing pipeline.

This role will be best suited to an individual with strong technical appreciation, ideally with a background in a relevant engineering discipline with the ability to price minor works through their industry knowledge - without the reliance on subcontracted support or other external resources - who is also a self-starter and driven to maximise opportunities towards favourable business outcomes.

If you are an experienced FM professional with ambitions of joining a growing business, we can offer you a collaborative yet challenging environment with the opportunity to see the tangible impact that your decisions will make day-to-day.

Requirements

To be considered for the role, we would like to see a demonstrable mix of the following:

• Experienced and competent user of Microsoft Office, specifically using Excel to create management reports around tracking Small Works
• Work collaboratively alongside other contractors and vendors on-site
• Sign-off work/manage work through an appointed person
• Support the FM Core team in the delivery of contractual requirements where required
• Manage costs to ensure no uplift or scope-creep during work stage
• Proactive, service-focused attitude, with the flexibility to adapt to changing business requirements
• Ability to think creatively and change approach as required to ensure total customer satisfaction
• Proven track record of delivering Small/Minor Works

What We Offer:

• A supportive and collaborative work environment
• Opportunities for professional growth and development
• Competitive salary and benefits package
• The chance to be part of an award-winning organisation that values innovation and excellence
