Are you an experienced Project Manager looking for a role where you can take full ownership of projects from pre-construction through to completion?

My client is a well-established fit-out and refurbishment contractor delivering high-quality projects across commercial offices, sports facilities, leisure environments and specialist refurbishment schemes.

You will typically manage around 4 live projects at any one time, with values ranging from £30,000 to £2 million.
