Project Manager
Matchtech
A fast-growing marine cleantech business is scaling deployment of a propulsion system for commercial vessels. The technology is already operating at sea and the team is now moving into early commercial rollout-working through subcontract manufacturers, delivering shipyard installations, and supporting equipment in service.
This is a hands-on delivery role in a small team: you'll keep multiple workstreams moving, remove blockers quickly, and provide clear visibility of schedule/risk/cost.
What you'll be doing
- Build and maintain practical delivery plans from concept through manufacture, installation and operational handover
- Coordinate internal engineering plus external subcontract manufacturers, fabricators, and suppliers
- Drive readiness for shipyard work: documentation, logistics, interface planning, access/yard constraints, method statements (where applicable)
- Run action tracking from technical meetings-turn decisions into clear owners, dates and next steps
- Manage risk/issue tracking and escalate early; keep leadership updated with simple, accurate reporting
- Support continuous improvement of delivery processes/tools as the business scales
What we're looking for
Essential
- Experience in project coordination / project engineering / project management in a technical environment
- Exposure to at least one of: marine, shipbuilding/ship repair, offshore, heavy engineering, manufacturing/fabrication, industrial installation/commissioning
- Comfortable coordinating multiple parties (engineering, suppliers, yards) and keeping pace in a changing environment
- Strong written communication and ability to maintain clear plans, actions, and status updates
Desirable
- Experience involving shipyards, dockyards, port environments, or vessel operations
- Familiarity with manufacturing supply chain (lead times, QA, FAT/SAT, documentation packs)
- Any project tools background (MS Project or similar)
Why this role
You'll be close to the product and the outcomes-supporting a technology that is actively being deployed to reduce fuel consumption and emissions in shipping. It's a broad role with genuine responsibility across engineering delivery, suppliers and shipyard execution.
