Perfect role for a mid professional looking to grow their Property & Construction career in London.
London's build pipeline hasn't slowed down, and the firms winning work right now are the lean, fast-moving ones that can turn a brief into a delivered scheme without the layers of bureaucracy you'd find at a traditional contractor.
This particular business is a young, founder-led player in Property & Construction, backing a growing run of residential and mixed-use projects across the capital.
They need a Senior Project Manager who can hold a site team to account, keep a client calm, and still answer their own emails.
If that's you, read on.
Here's what you'll be doing: Running project programmes from design through to handover, flagging slippage before it becomes a problem Chairing weekly site meetings with contractors, consultants and the client, then following up in writing within 24 hours Managing budgets and variations, and challenging costs that don't stack up Coordinating architects, engineers and subcontractors so nobody's waiting on anybody else Reporting progress and risk directly to the founders, in plain English, no padding Keeping health and safety documentation current and visiting site regularly to check it's actually being followed Here are the skills you'll need: Several years' experience running projects in Property & Construction, ideally on London schemes A working knowledge of JCT contracts and RIBA stages Comfortable with MS Project or similar, and happy to build your own trackers when the off-the-shelf tool doesn't fit Clear, direct communication with clients, contractors and your own team, even when the news is bad A genuine problem-solver.
Startups don't have a department for everything, so you'll need to work things out yourself APM or RICS qualification is useful but not a dealbreaker if the experience is there Key perks and benefits: £43,500 to £62,000, depending on experience Equity in a business that's actually growing, not just saying it is Flexible working hours around a core office presence in London A real learning and development budget, spent on courses you'll actually use Flat structure.
You'll have direct access to the people making decisions, not three layers of management between you and them This is an office-based Senior Project Manager role, based in London, working alongside a small team that moves quickly and expects the same from you.
Why pursue a career in Property & Construction?
London's skyline doesn't build itself, and the demand for people who can actually deliver a scheme on time and on budget isn't going anywhere.
Property & Construction rewards people who take ownership, and a Senior Project Manager who gets results tends to move upward fast, often into director-level roles within a few years.
Few sectors in London offer that combination of visible output and genuine progression.
