Project Manager

A growing construction consultancy in the heart of Manchester is looking to appoint an ambitious Project Manager to join their expanding team. The consultancy has secured several long-term frameworks and private sector clients across Greater Manchester, and the incoming Project Manager will help deliver commercial office, school, and college projects typically ranging between £3m-£25m.

This is a great opportunity for a motivated Project Manager to join a forward-thinking consultancy that values long-term development and provides full chartership support. The Project Manager will work across a variety of projects, building excellent client relationships and working closely with senior colleagues to deliver quality outcomes.

To be considered, you must have previous experience in a construction consultancy setting – applications from those with only contractor-side experience will not be considered for this Project Manager role.

Key duties include:

Leading pre-contract activity, feasibility, and client engagement
