Job Description

Position: Construction Project Manager

Location: Leeds / Sutton-in-Ashfield initially, Salford project when on site

Salary: £75,000 - £90,000 + car allowance

Bennett & Game are representing an established and growing construction contractor who are seeking a Construction Project Manager to join their Build Division and take responsibility for a major new leisure centre development in Salford.

The business forms part of a wider £70m turnover group, with the Build Division generating approximately £30m-£40m annually. The division delivers projects ranging from smaller works through to schemes valued at approximately £28m-£30m, with leisure centres and swimming pool developments forming a significant part of its workload. The company has built a strong position through the UK leisure framework, with repeat business and early contractor involvement allowing its teams to influence projects from inception through design development and into full construction delivery.

The role will provide the opportunity to join a £19m new-build leisure centre project in Salford from the PCSA stage and remain with the scheme through to completion. The project is currently around halfway through PCSA, with construction expected to commence in Q1/Q2 2027 and an approximately 18-month construction programme. Initially, the successful candidate will work on the PCSA and wider pre-construction workload on a hybrid basis from either the Leeds or Sutton-in-Ashfield office before becoming site based in Salford once construction starts. This is a permanent position with the opportunity to join early, understand the project and shape its delivery rather than simply inheriting a live site.

Salary & Benefits

* £75,000 - £90,000 salary depending on experience
* Company car or £7,000 annual car allowance
* 10% annual bonus scheme
* Company pension
* Private healthcare
* Paid annual leave, with additional leave accrued through length of service
* Hybrid working during the pre-construction stage
* Permanent position with long-term project pipeline

Construction Project Manager Position Overview

* Take responsibility for the delivery of a £19m new-build leisure centre project in Salford
* Join the project during the PCSA stage and become involved in the scheme well before construction commences
* Work closely with the pre-construction, design, commercial and planning teams to develop the project ahead of mobilisation
* Lead the project through construction, ensuring delivery to programme, budget, quality and client expectations
* Manage and coordinate the site team, subcontractors, consultants and wider supply chain
* Maintain strong relationships with the client and project stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle
* Oversee programme, procurement, quality, health and safety, commercial performance and project reporting
* Coordinate the transition from PCSA into construction and establish effective site delivery processes
* Become site based in Salford when construction starts, managing the project through an approximately 18-month programme
* Work within a business with established expertise in leisure and swimming pool projects, with support available from an experienced wider team
* Contribute to the continued growth of a Build Division delivering approximately £30m-£40m of annual turnover

* Proven ability to lead site teams, subcontractors, consultants and supply chain partners
* Strong commercial awareness with the ability to manage programme, costs, quality and project risk
