Project Manager

Yorkshire (Home-Based)

Projects Across the UK

Small Works Division

FMSS Recruitment are delighted to be partnering with a leading organisation in the search for an experienced Project Manager to join their growing Small Works team.

This is a home-based role with travel to project sites as required, with Wakefield acting as the regional office location when needed.

We're looking for a technically strong Project Manager with a proven track record of delivering refurbishment and redevelopment projects from initial concept through to completion. The successful candidate will take full ownership of projects ranging from approximately £400k to £1.4m, ensuring they are delivered safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

Unlike new-build projects, these works focus on the redevelopment, refurbishment, and enhancement of existing buildings, requiring a practical and technically minded individual who can manage the complexities that come with working in live and occupied environments.

The Role

You will be responsible for the end-to-end delivery of multiple projects, acting as the key point of contact for clients, subcontractors, consultants, and internal stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle.

This role would suit someone who comes from a technical or engineering background and is comfortable taking ownership of projects from pre-construction through to handover.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage projects from initial survey, planning, and mobilisation through to completion and handover.
• Deliver refurbishment and redevelopment projects valued between £400k and £1.4m.
• Develop and manage project programmes, budgets, and resource plans.
• Coordinate subcontractors, suppliers, consultants, and internal teams.
• Ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, and within budget.
• Manage project risks, opportunities, variations, and change control processes.
• Oversee site activities and monitor progress against programme milestones.
• Ensure compliance with CDM regulations, health & safety requirements, and company procedures.
• Review and approve RAMS, COSHH assessments, and site documentation.
• Work closely with commercial teams to manage costs, valuations, and project profitability.
• Maintain strong client relationships and provide regular project updates.
• Drive quality standards and ensure projects are delivered right first time.
• Ensure all project reporting is completed accurately and on time.

About You

To be successful in this role, you will ideally demonstrate:

• Proven experience delivering construction, refurbishment, or redevelopment projects from start to finish.
• A strong technical or engineering background.
• Experience managing projects within existing occupied or operational buildings.
• Excellent knowledge of project planning, delivery, and stakeholder management.
• Experience managing multiple subcontractors and supply chain partners.
• Strong commercial awareness with experience managing budgets and project costs.
• Sound understanding of JCT and NEC contracts.
• Detailed knowledge of CDM Regulations and construction health & safety requirements.
• Excellent communication and leadership skills.
• The ability to work autonomously whilst managing multiple projects simultaneously.
