Join the team and make an impact from day one.
We're a forward-thinking housing association committed to maintaining safe, high-quality homes for our residents. We're currently looking for an experienced Senior Project Manager to join us on a 4-6 month interim contract, overseeing a vital Planned Maintenance Programme.

This is an urgent requirement due to the departure of the current SPM. We're seeking someone immediately available (1-2 weeks notice max) who can commit to being onsite 5 days a week for the first two weeks to ensure a thorough handover. After that, you'll move to a flexible hybrid pattern of 3 days onsite/in the office (North London) or at contractor locations (Essex), and 2 days working from home.

You'll be leading a live programme of works that includes:

• Window replacements
• Roofing projects
• Cyclical decorations
• External works

You'll be managing contract delivery, driving performance, and ensuring works meet safety, quality, and budget standards.

Your Team
You'll line manage and provide leadership to a small but capable team of:

• 1x Senior Building Surveyor
• 1x Building Surveyor
• 1x Clerk of Works

Key Responsibilities

• Lead delivery of the planned maintenance programme across multiple sites.
• Oversee contractor performance, site quality, and health & safety compliance.
• Manage project budgets and timelines, ensuring value for money and minimal disruption.
• Support and develop your team through effective line management and technical guidance.
• Liaise closely with internal teams, contractors, and residents to keep communication smooth and transparent.

About You

• Strong experience delivering housing planned maintenance projects (ideally external works).
• Confident managing contractors, stakeholders, and multi-site delivery.
• Experience line managing surveyors and site-based staff.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, delivery-focused environment.
• Able to start within 1-2 weeks and commit to 5 days/week onsite for the first two weeks.
