Weโ€™re looking for a strong, site-based Project Manager to take ownership of an ongoing project for a major blue-chip client in the North East.

The scheme is well progressed, with remaining works including second fix, lighting, M&E, fit-out and specialist installation works within a large industrial facility.

This is less about standing on site with a clipboard and more about genuinely driving the job.

As Project Manager, youโ€™ll need to manage subcontractors, programme, H&S, quality and client expectations โ€” and be comfortable dealing with a demanding corporate client where process, communication and diplomacy matter just as much as delivery.

โ€ข Strong Project Manager / Senior Site Manager background
โ€ข Excellent client-facing skills
โ€ข Very strong Health & Safety
โ€ข Experience working within structured processes and procedures
โ€ข Able to be firm without creating a diplomatic incident
โ€ข Industrial, logistics, distribution or major fit-out experience ideal

Initial requirement is around 3 months, with substantial follow-on work planned and potential for the right Project Manager to remain involved well into 2027.

This needs someone who can walk onto a live job, get hold of it quickly and make everyone feel like thereโ€™s a plan.

Even better if there actually is one.

Interested?
