Project Manager
Project Manager – Surrey
A fantastic opportunity has come up for an experienced Project Manager to join a leading PLC residential developer. This is a high-performing regional team with a strong reputation for delivering quality homes and has received multiple industry awards for build quality and site performance.
They are now looking to bring in a Project Manager to play a key role on a brand-new residential development set within the Surrey countryside.

You'll be working with an experienced team on site, where your role will be to lead from the front, mentor the team and help drive performance, quality and delivery across the development with an award-winning mindset.
