Clapham · Permanent
£1m–£3m Projects | Genuine Progression to Director
Working hard but not getting the recognition? Borne Resourcing are recruiting an experienced Construction Contracts Manager (could also be known as a Construction Project Manager) for a privately owned, well-financed high-end residential main contractor based just 5 minutes from a major SW London rail station.
They deliver prime residential projects across London, typically £1m–£3m, including basements, structural alterations, extensions and complete house refurbishments.
Now, here's the interesting bit.
Someone who joined in this very role has since received three pay rises and been promoted to Director, with the potential for shares in the business further down the line.
Three pay rises. Yes, really.
This is a company that rewards people who deliver, rather than those who've simply occupied the same office chair the longest.
The role As Construction Contracts Manager, you'll typically manage two projects simultaneously, from contract award through to completion.
Responsibilities include:
- Managing programmes, budgets, procurement and construction delivery.
- Liaising directly with clients, architects and consultants.
- Overseeing site teams and subcontractors.
- Pricing variations and making commercially sensible decisions.
- Managing RFIs, progress reports and contractual documentation.
- Resolving problems quickly and keeping projects moving.
Experience of basements, structural alterations and complex residential refurbishments would be particularly useful.
You'll need to be technically competent, commercially sharp, organised and confident dealing directly with demanding private clients.
Above all, they're looking for a grafter.
Someone who takes ownership, makes decisions, responds quickly and doesn't need chasing to get things done.
It's a demanding role, and occasionally projects will need your attention outside normal working hours. But hard work gets noticed and rewarded.
