Project Manager | Super-Prime Residential | London | £4m-£20m Projects
Managing a team, a client, a consultant and a 4-storey scaffolding plan... all before lunch? You might just be the one!
Our client - a prestigious contractor that's been lovingly restoring London's finest homes since the Beatles first hit the charts - is looking for a Project Manager.
(Preferably one who can stay calm even when a chandelier delivery feels one slip away from an Only Fools and Horses moment.)
You'll lead stunning residential projects from £4m to £20m in Prime Central London - refurbishments, new builds, fit-outs - each one as unique as a royal family tree.
You'll need:
10-15 years' experience in high-end construction, with super-prime residential experience
Jedi-level programming skills (Power Project preferred)
Deep knowledge of JCT contracts (bonus points if you actually enjoy them)
The patience of a saint and the foresight of Mystic Meg
In return: a company where quality matters, people know your name, and your projects might just end up on the Knight Frank website (or at least in a very smug Christmas card photo).
Full job spec available.
Curious? Intrigued? Mildly interested?

This Central London main contractor is growing faster than a snag list on handover day, and are in need of a Senior Quantity Surveyor someone who knows their way around a JCT contract yet doesn't flinch at a spreadsheet.
They deal mostly in refurbishment traditional, heritage, occasionally modern with project values between £50k and £2m.

What you'll be doing:
Estimating, tendering, cost plans the usual suspects
Managing subbies without losing your patience (or your pen)
Pricing variations with one eyebrow slightly raised
Tracking costs, forecasting cashflow, and reporting like it matters
Liaising with clients, surveyors, and the rest of the crew without resorting to interpretive dance
What we're looking for:
10+ years' Main Contractor experience
3+ years navigating London's unique brand of construction chaos
Strong grasp of JCT (Minor, Intermediate, and ideally D&B)
Calm under pressure, clear under scrutiny
Fluent in Excel and not allergic to paperwork
Commercial/Construction Management qualification
A driving licence is helpful, but won't be held against you if you take the Tube
They do things properly no shortcuts, no corner-cutting, no disappearing acts. If you can juggle numbers, people, and problems without breaking a sweat (or a pencil), drop me a line spencer @borneltd .com or we can arrange a call Spencer Wade: 07920 489522

Freelance Design Manager - Commercial Fit-Out
Location: Piccadilly
Start Date: May 2025
Duration: 9-10 Months
The Situation:
A £25m two-phase project is rattling along nicely. Phase 1 ("Structures" - demolition, structural works, general heavy lifting) wraps up in about two months. After that, it's on to Phase 2: £9m of commercial fit-out, where things get considerably shinier and more client-facing.
We now require a Design Manager to bridge the gap between the 'knocking down' and the 'making it look expensive', and to see the fit-out through to completion without undue excitement.
The Role:
Broadly speaking:
·Review the design, spot the issues before they become your issues.
·Ensure the fit-out can actually be built (you'd be surprised how often this needs saying).
·Co-ordinate between structural and fit-out elements with minimal drama.
·Work out what's missing, what's needed, and what nobody's thought about yet.
·Generally keep the design process moving so the project doesn't grind to a halt while people argue over ceiling details.
If you know your way around a fit-out site and can keep designers, contractors, and clients broadly pointed in the same direction, you'll fit right in.
What You'll (Ideally) Bring:
·Solid experience as a Design Manager on commercial projects, preferably with a main contractor.
·A practical mind - capable of looking at a design and asking: "Will this actually work?"
·A steady hand transitioning from heavy structure to detailed fit-out.
·Proficiency with relevant design management and project tracking software (no, we don't mean spreadsheets you made yourself in 2009).
·The ability to solve problems sensibly, not theatrically.
(Structural engineering experience not essential, though understanding how big things stay up is handy.)
Alternative Titles:
Design Manager, Project Design Manager, Construction Design Manager, Design Coordinator - call yourself what you like, as long as you can do the job.
How to Apply:
If this sounds tolerable and you're available, give Michael Ogunyankin a call on 07551 155789 or send your updated CV (ideally something resembling the truth) to [email protected] .
If you're not free but know someone suitable, do the decent thing and pass it on.

Project Manager - D&B Fit-Out
Near Kings Langley, Hertfordshire
Permanent (or Temp-to-Perm) | Salary: Competitive (DoE) + Bonus (around one month's salary) + Package
Start: May 2025 (or sooner, if you're particularly eager)
The Situation:
A rare opportunity to join a contractor who has cleverly avoided the tendering rat race - all their work is negotiated. No endless box-ticking exercises or lowest-bid-wins nonsense here.
They need a Project Manager who can take a project from a vague idea in a client's mind to a finished space they're oddly proud of. You'll be expected to use your experience, judgement, and basic common sense (we realise this is increasingly rare) to steer the process from pre-construction to handover.
The Role:
In essence:
·Pick up a lead (yes, they come to you).
·Work with the in-house designer to create something the client actually likes.
·Knock up an initial cost plan that won't cause anyone to faint.
·Present it to the client (a smile wouldn't kill you).
·Oversee the design and detailed pricing.
·Get everything signed off without bloodshed.
·Deliver the project to a standard you'd be prepared to put your name to.
·You'll have commercial support (no need to moonlight as a quantity surveyor), and a Site Manager will run each site, meaning you can focus on the bit you're actually good at.
What You'll Need:
·A work history that suggests you tend to stick around (not just until the biscuits run out).
·Solid D&B experience - ideally fit-out and refurb, not ground-up skyscrapers.
·Comfort working in live environments (schools, hospitals, offices - all full of unpredictable humans).
·Programming skills (actual programming, not just "guessing and hoping").
·A healthy understanding of the numbers.
·The ability to speak to clients in full sentences.
·A current DBS, or at least the willingness to get one without drama.
Reporting to:
Construction Director (helpfully one of the grown-ups in the business).
Start Date:
Mid-May preferred, but if you're somehow available sooner, even better.
How to Apply:
If you have the relevant experience (and possibly a sense of humour still intact), call Spencer Wade on 07920 489522 or email your CV to [email protected].
