Project Manager – London
Taffs Well, South Wales | Salary up to £55,000 + Benefits
Take ownership. Deliver outstanding projects. Build your future with an ambitious business.
Are you an experienced Project Manager who enjoys coordinating contractors and suppliers, managing site activity and taking responsibility for getting projects delivered properly?
I'm recruiting for an ambitious, growing business with a clear goal of becoming number one in its industry. They're looking for a Project Manager to join their Operations team, taking responsibility for projects across London and the surrounding areas.
Based at the company's modern head office in Taffs Well, you'll manage projects from initial handover through to successful installation and completion. You'll be the key link between customers, suppliers, the office team and subcontractor installation teams, ensuring projects are delivered on time, within budget and to an exceptional standard.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys taking ownership, building relationships and making things happen.
What will you be doing?
Working closely with the Senior Projects Manager and wider Operations team, you'll manage the complete delivery process for your projects, including:
- Taking ownership of project handovers from Sales, ensuring requirements are understood and customers are kept informed.
- Arranging and attending site surveys and pre-start meetings, identifying site requirements and health and safety considerations, including RAMS.
- Coordinating customers, installation teams and subcontractors, agreeing dates, obtaining costings and ensuring the right resources are in place.
- Working with the purchasing team to monitor suppliers, coordinate deliveries and ensure materials arrive in line with project deadlines.
- Managing installation teams and contractors, ensuring work is completed safely, professionally and to the required standard.
- Monitoring project costs and financial performance, including reporting on gross profit achieved.
- Working closely with the Taffs Well office to forecast workloads, coordinate resources and keep projects progressing.
Location and travel
The role is based at the company's head office in Taffs Well, South Wales, with responsibility for projects across London and the surrounding areas.
You'll need to be comfortable travelling regularly between Taffs Well and London, attending customer sites, surveys and pre-start meetings, and overseeing installation activity. The role will involve a combination of time at the Taffs Well office and working on site in London, with overnight stays when project schedules or travel requirements make them necessary.
All business mileage, train travel and overnight accommodation costs are covered by the company.
What are we looking for?
We're interested in people who understand that successful project delivery involves much more than maintaining a programme or updating spreadsheets.
You could currently be a Project Manager, Contracts Manager, Installation Manager or Site Project Manager, with experience in commercial construction, fit-out, interiors, specialist installations, building services, M&E or a similar environment.
Previous experience with the company's specific products isn't essential. Your ability to coordinate suppliers, contractors, site activity and installation programmes is far more important.
You'll ideally bring:
- Proven experience managing projects from handover through to installation and completion.
- Experience coordinating subcontractors, installation teams or trades, with a good understanding of site operations and RAMS.
- Commercial awareness and experience monitoring project costs, budgets or gross profit.
- Strong organisation, communication and problem-solving skills, with the confidence to manage contractors firmly but professionally.
- A proactive, accountable approach and willingness to travel regularly between South Wales and London.
You'll be someone who takes pride in delivering a job properly, understands the importance of customer relationships and isn't afraid to take responsibility when challenges arise.
